My Excursion with a v10 gets 7 to 10 towing with 4:30 gears. Your v10 had a problem. For me I would never go diesel...noise ad smell plus its actually cheaper to travel since diesel fuel is more costly then regular gas. When all is taken into account you will never run a diesel for less money.
Just not true. I had a V-10 and PSD Excursion. The 7.3 was with out a doubt cheaper to operate.
I could easily save $100.00-200.00 per month in fuel cost
11 MPG towing vs.7.
The 7.3 cost more to buy. however it retained its value and was worth a lot when I sold it.
There was a line of people looking to buy it!
