2002 Ford Excursion consumer reviews

We have continuously used two Ford Excursions for a number of years. They are both meticulously maintained at a price of around $2500 annually. The each have around 190,000 miles now. They have perfect paint and interiors and run perfectly. I occasionally think of buying a new Expedition but the Excursions are 10X better than Suburban, Expedition, and slightly better than the LWB Range Rovers. The wife and kids love these vehicles as do our friends and extended family. Why cant Ford put these back into production. This vehicle and the 2004 Mustangs (We own 3 of these too) are the best vehicles ever made in the world in the 20th and 21st centuries

As a fam of 9 , it was perfect, sadly rust for salted roads ate it ! With 300k miles in 15 years it was a great deal , engine was perfect!

This is one of the greats. What can you buy that even comes close? Super duty line of trucks have been on the roads forever and still go strong. They are leaf spring supported and not whisper quiet on the highway. But you can load 8 people, gear, and pull a big trailer or whatever you want from one side of the country to the other. They are big yes but whatever, they are the length of a short bed super cab pickup. Not crew cab, so not really so huge. Get your x, b code springs and do a little here and there these things last and do work, plus look good at 20 years old

Truly Impressed with it & I have been looking for a '00-'03 ever since..I was just amazed at how you can trick one out and all the accessories available to do it

Don't get me wrong, the new full-size SUVs from Ford and Chevy are pretty darn good. But they're built on half-ton pick-up truck chassis and under harsh conditions reveal their softer side. Not the Ford Excursion. Even though the last Ex rolled off Ford's assembly line for the 2005 model year, it's still the undisputed heavyweight king of SUVs. It's built on Ford's venerable and highly proven super-duty truck chassis. That means its as tough and durable as a brick s***house. Plus, because it's built on a Ford F-250 truck chassis, there are a billion spare parts out there and performance enhancing upgrades. Buy an Excursion and you'll never want for parts -- if you ever need them. I've owned three: two V10s and one 6.0L turbo-diesel. The V10s are essentially bullet proof if you maintain them correctly. The 6.0L needs some preventative work to ensure it doesn't puke engine coolant and leave you stranded. If you've got a 6.0, get it bulletproofed ASAP. Because she will fail you at the worst time.

Seats 8 adults comfortably, V10 Engine, plenty of leg room and biggest storage section on any vehicle. roof rack, Tow package, heated mirrors, electric seats driver & passenger

Seats 8 Adults comfortably, comes with 3 remote keys, great for road trips, big and powerful, always reliable, removable 2nd & 3rd row seats or drop down

I test drove a lot of them in the Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana area and they're all rusted out. Some dealers lied about the rust.

Best family SUV I?ve owned. Reliable 7.3 l diesel and comfortable interior. Great combination! Have driven all over the Western US in this rig and been very safe and comfy...

As long as you get the 7.3L Powerstroke you can't lose... This is the best family vehicle available...
