Excursion owners

2016 Chevy Suburban HD
Government Fleet Sales only.

It was my understanding that Chevy did away with the 3/4 ton Suburbans several years ago.

? I could not find a new one ton suburban on the chevy website? Where did you see one?

I would try to find another Excursion like I had. Period. Nothing like the most capable SUV on the planet!

Are you talking about a Fleetwood Excursion diesel pusher or a Ford Excursion?

If I had to replace my Excursion DP, I'd go find another one.

The OP did post this in the Tow Vehicle forum, not the Motorhome forum.:R

Ford will corner the market!
Not THAT hard to do the tooling to put a carryall body on a HD chassis. With the huge upswing in HD sales in recent years, it's foolish that one of the big 3 hasn't already done this. A real OE Duraburb, excursion, or MegaRamcharger would sell in a big way.
The old Excursion option is about gone. Not many left in good shape comparatively speaking. Neighbor just gave well over $20k for a gasser Excursion with just under 100kmi on it. For a 12 year old gasser! Now it's a nice rig but, that shows the market. He's not even a truck guy but would have gone and dropped $50+ for a new one if he could have.

I'd only replace it if it was a total loss in an insurance claim. Otherwise, it is always worth fixing.

In the unfortunate instance of a total loss, I'd either get an F350/Excursion conversion, or the Chevy 3500 passenger van with a Quigley 4wd conversion, all diesels. There really are no good stock alternatives, if you really need the space for family and pets, and the towing capacity.

For myself since my Excursion only gets used when I tow.. It would be a 2016 Ram 3500 Mega Cab, 6.4 Hemi w/ 4.10 gears. Buuut since that cost's so much more than my paid for X.. it stays.
