We walked away from the excursion yesterday, after my wife returned from having it inspected and sat with the diesel techs there for quite a bit, she didn't feel comfortable as most of you have said with the reliability . And if the wife isn't happy... No one is happy.
Started looking for any other gas excursions for sale near me and came up empty.
Good choice/decision. I think you may have dodged a bullet. :)
As far as V10 Excursions go: Like already said, there are not many left, and they get fewer every day since Ford quit making them in 2005.
However, they are out there. I think you'll probably have to expand your search area some, though, and be willing to travel a ways to get one.
We had an '03 V10 Excursion we towed with for many years, it was an awesome vehicle. I kinda miss it sometimes. Gave us 9 years of nearly flawless service towing an 8,000 lb 34' RV trailer. It was still running like new when we finally traded it, too. RV dealer we traded it to for our current rig liked our Ex so much, they decided not to sell it - Ended up keeping it for themselves, for hauling parts and other uses. They are great towing rigs, you will definitely like it if you can find a good one.
