- Excursion Legacy: Produced from 2000 to 2005, the Ford Excursion was the largest SUV ever mass-produced, built on the F-250 Super Duty chassis. Designed to tow heavy loads while carrying a full family, it has since earned cult status among diesel and off-road enthusiasts.
- Powertrain: This example runs a 6.0L Power Stroke V8 diesel that has been bulletproofed with upgraded oil pump, turbo (2015), new injectors (2020), and EGR delete. A rebuilt automatic transmission was completed in 2019, with power delivered to all four wheels through a part-time 4×4 transfer case.
- Exterior & Mods: Finished in XLT trim, this Excursion features Toyo tires fitted in 2021, undercoating applied in 2022, and repaired rocker panels. A new aluminum radiator and serpentine belt were added in 2024, keeping the big SUV road-ready.
- Interior: The cabin offers durable cloth seating, third-row capacity, and classic Ford ergonomics. While largely stock, it maintains its spacious, functional layout with the practicality that made the Excursion popular with large families and towing enthusiasts.
- Ownership & History: CARFAX shows three owners with the last ownership starting in 2020, all in Virginia. Service records are extensive, and the vehicle carries a clean title. Minor accident and damage reports were noted in 2016, 2018, and 2019, none involving airbag deployment. Recent upkeep includes brakes, rotors, fuel pump, and new batteries in 2025.
