Keith Browning Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 9/30/2005 - I heard on the radio this morning that the last Ford Excursion SUV rolled off of the assembly line this morning. For what it's worth I thought it was one of the best vehicles for it's purpose ever made. At 19' long with the aerodynamics of a brick and fuel guzzling engines it's no surprise that this monster family hauler suffered from slow sales. Given the current fuel situation, the national average to fill the X's 44 gallon tank is around $100! Personally, if I could afford one I would own one and probably a diesel. Maybe in the not too distant future I will stumble upon a nicely kept used Excursion but I think I might actually prefer a 7.3L over the 6.0L. At least it's not a sad good-bye, they will still be visiting us in the service bays for some time to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMCTech Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yeah, I heard that too. I remember when the last Grand Wagoneer rolled off of the Toledo line in 91', and it wasn't long before I had one of my own. I think I would like a gently used 7.3 too. I had a V-10 250 and do not want to revisit that fuel bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
