Limited 7.3L 4x4 2003 Ford Excursion Review

2003 excursion new car test drive, they dont come any bigger than this., introduction.

The Ford Excursion is the king of big sport-utilities. It is supremely stable; it feels safe and secure on the open highway. Whether you have a lot of cargo to carry, a bunch of people to transport, a big trailer to pull or all of the above, the Excursion is ready for whatever you throw its way. It's a beast, however, taking up more garage space, parking space, and street space than anything else this side of a dually. 

Ford Excursion comes in two trim levels: XLT and Limited.  The XLT includes three versions: SSV, Base and Premium while the Limited offers Base and Ultimate versions.  All XLTs come with a nice cloth interior with comfortable seats that offer good support for long drives and a high level of standard equipment. The Base version adds body side cladding, a cargo net, day/night mirrors, a removable third-row seat and chrome steel wheels. The Premium upgrade includes a center floor console, autolamp headlights, rear-seat audio controls, running boards, six-way power front seats, a trip computer, alloy wheels and power rear quarter windows.  Limited trim adds automatic front air conditioning, wood grain trim, fog lights, turn signals on the exterior rear view mirrors, wheel moldings, power adjustable pedals, a reverse sensing system, leather seats and speed-sensitive intermittent wipers.  The Limited Ultimate adds a retractable cargo cover, HomeLink garage door opener, power adjustable pedals with memory feature, heated front seats and a deluxe steering wheel with audio and air conditioning controls.  Three engines are available: a V8, a V10, and a turbocharged diesel. And, of course, there's a choice of two- or four-wheel drive.  The base XLT 4x2 retails for $32,820. We drove a $38,235 XLT 4x4 with the V10. We've also driven a diesel, which adds about $4,000 to the bottom line.  Among the new equipment for 2002 is an available rear-seat entertainment system with a DVD player ($1,360). 

The Ford Excursion is based on Ford's Super Duty F-Series pickup trucks and is more than seven inches longer than the Chevrolet Suburban.  Excursion's rear cargo doors are split three ways. You can swing the glass hatch up for quick access to gear. This same glass hatch offers much better visibility rearward while driving than vehicles with traditional split doors. The rear doors are half height, like Dutch doors. Thus, they can be opened when you've got a trailer attached and can be swung nearly 180 degrees for easier access.  Excursion 4x4 models come standard with Ford's 6.8-liter single overhead-cam Triton V10. It generates 310 horsepower and 425 foot-pounds of torque. A 5.4-liter V8 is available as a no-cost option, but few will be built; it puts out 255 horsepower and 350 foot-pounds of torque. A 7.3-liter turbodiesel engine is also available, and produces 250 horsepower and a whopping 505 foot-pounds of torque.  If you drive off the pavement or on snow-covered roads, you'll want to opt for the $250 limited-slip, the $130 all-terrain tires, and the $75 skid plate. Optional $95 trailer mirrors feature little convex mirrors at the bottom that eliminate blind spots. Ford says the Class IV receiver hitch, which comes standard, is designed to prevent smaller cars from going underneath the rear bumper, while a specially designed BlockerBeam is designed to accomplish the same goal up front. 

Inside the Excursion is a comfortable interior. It doesn't matter whether you're sitting in the front seats, second row or third row, all of the seats offer generous legroom, headroom and elbow room.  Six adults can ride in comfort with 48 cubic feet of cargo space left behind them. For shorter trips, like going to a restaurant, the Excursion can seat eight people, or nine if you order the front bench instead of the bucket seats.  Remove the third-row bench seat, and the Excursion can easily carry five people and a lot of gear. Removing the third-row seat is easy: Flip the seatback forward, yank a bar at the foot of the seat and pull the seat toward the rear of the vehicle; it glides along on rollers. The seat weighs 75 pounds, but in short order I pulled it out and threw it into the back of another SUV on a cold Montana morning.  Set up as a two-seater, the Excursion can carry an outlandish amount of cargo. A sheet of plywood slides in easy and lays flat on the floor. Two people could sleep in comfort on the huge, flat cargo area. Believe it or not, we managed to fill an Excursion. We were finishing a three-day float-fishing trip. As planned, the river guide in charge of setting up camp had arrived at our vehicles ahead of us. He quickly stuffed all of the supplies from base camp and enough fishing equipment for eight people inside. When he was done stuffing, only seating for two remained and the rear-view mirror was rendered useless. Granted, he could have packed more efficiently, but he was grateful for such a large storage container.  After reorganizing the equipment and putting some of it into another vehicle, six of us piled into the Excursion and made the long trip back to town. Cruising along steadily with this load, the Excursion demonstrated its virtues of size, stability and power. I was surprised when this cynical group of fishermen sang its praises.  The Excursion comes with a nicely designed interior. The dash is attractive and well designed and all of the controls are easy to find and operate. 

Driving Impression

Cruising along in a 2002 Ford Excursion gives you a secure feeling. It's smooth and quiet.  The V10 is a delightful engine. It produces 310 horsepower and can propel the Excursion along the Interstate at high rates of speed. The V10 generates a very impressive 425 foot-pounds of torque at 3250 rpm. Tell someone you have a V10 and they think you're driving a rocket. But an Excursion 4x4 weighs about 7,200 pounds, so its acceleration performance at high altitudes seems no better than an Explorer or Expedition.  Still, it had no trouble passing other vehicles on two-lane roads. The Excursion is rock solid at 97 mph where a governor keeps you from going any faster. The EPA doesn't even rate trucks this big for fuel economy, but you should expect something in the 10-12 mpg range; we saw 14 mpg on the highway, but 10 mpg is more likely around town.  If you like diesel engines, you'll love Ford's turbocharged 7.3-liter Power Stroke. It seems unaffected by high altitude and I was amazed at its ability to accelerate past slower cars on two-lane roads. The diesel generates 505 foot-pounds of torque at just 1600 rpm, useful for pulling stumps out of your yard or pulling heavy trailers up steep ramps. Ford worked hard to reduce noise from the diesel both inside and outside the Excursion; but you still shouldn't expect to sneak up on anyone. The diesel gets around 16 to 18 mpg, and with a 44-gallon fuel tank, the diesel has a range of more than 700 miles.  On paper, the Excursion is with a 5.4-liter V8, but I suspect they would struggle if you loaded six passengers and luggage and headed for the mountains. This engine is best left as an economical engine for utility companies in the flatlands.  While the 4x2 comes with Ford's Twin I-Beam front suspension and coil springs, the 4x4 uses a solid front axle and leaf springs. Differences in ride and handling between the two are surprisingly subtle. The 4x4 handles well, tackling corners with confidence and offering good grip on dirt roads. It does not offer the ride sophistication of the newest generation Suburban and Yukon XL 1500-series models, however. At high speeds, the Excursion is stable. Strong crosswinds and an 18-wheeler going in the opposite direction had little effect.  Its long wheelbase means the Excursion is not a serious off-road vehicle. But the part-time four-wheel-drive system and 8.1-inch ground clearance should get you up some pretty gnarly dirt roads in nasty weather. The Excursion does not offer a system like GM's Autotrac, which distributes torque front to rear automatically for slushy, inconsistent conditions. But Ford's clever vacuum-controlled hub-locking system quickly engages four-wheel drive on the fly by pressing a button. A low-range set of gears is ready whenever you need to tackle steep, slippery terrain.  Most important, the Excursion is rated to tow trailers up to 10,000 pounds (more than enough to pull a hefty boat). All Excursions come ready to tow, with a Class IV receiver hitch and factory-wired seven-pin electrical connector; a four-pin adapter is also included. All Excursions come with D-load range light-truck tires, LT265/75R-16D. You may want the available all-terrain treads if you drive on muddy trails, but the all-season tires are smoother and quieter for towing long distances.  This is a heavy vehicle, however. It's so heavy that it doesn't offer a big payload.  There's no getting around the fact that this is a big vehicle and its size is apparent in downtown areas. The Suburban is easier to manage. However, if you're used to big rigs, then you'll find this one surprisingly maneuverable and easy to park. 

Ford's gargantuan sport-utility is a stable platform for towing heavy trailers and can at the same time carry a truckload of fishermen. It rides fairly well for a heavy-duty truck and it's luxurious and comfortable. For those who want to tow trailers up to 10,000 pounds, the Excursion is a good alternative to a pickup with a cap.  The Ford Excursion should not, however, be considered as an alternative to a minivan. It's far too thirsty, and its size and design make for poor maneuverability and handling when compared with minivans and light-duty SUVs.

At $8,000, Could This 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 7.3 Be A Pretty Big Deal?

Image for article titled At $8,000, Could This 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 7.3 Be A Pretty Big Deal?

The 7.3-litre Power Stroke diesel in today’s Nice Price or Crack Pipe Excursion is considered to be a member of one of the best engine families in Ford Truck history. That’s what makes these big beasts so desirable to their fans. Let’s see if this one’s price could be considered a stroke of genius.

Related Content

The seller of last Friday’s 2016 Volvo S60 T6 shot a number of the photos for their ad overlooking the Big Tujunga Reservoir, just off of the legendary Angeles Forest Highway. That’s right in my backyard and so I was keen to see your response to the car as well as the $17,499 asking price the seller had set for it. If you all thought it was a screamin’ deal, and it being so close, perhaps it’s a car I should look into.

Fortunately for my bank account and, more importantly, my relationship with my wife, a narrow 54 percent of you nixed the idea. That was the number of those dunning the car to a Crack Pipe loss, and potentially saving my marriage. Thank you, people, I owe you one.

We live in challenging times. We’re told by various sides that we should alternatively shelter in place and get back to going out and keeping the economy alive. It’s a conundrum with no easy solution for those of us not yet ready for the quietude afforded by the grave.

I think, however, that I may have found a solution. Check out this 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 4X2 SUV. It is inarguably, the largest wagon that Ford has ever produced for the consumer market. At 227 inches long and over 80 wide, the three-row Excursion could allow you effective physical distancing with others   while you’re still in the same truck.

That’s not the only attractive attribute this Excursion possesses either. Another is the 7.3-litre Navistar-built Power Stroke Diesel that sits under its massive hood. The 2003 model year was this engine’s last. At mid-year, it was replaced by the higher-output but soon to be discovered, woefully unreliable, Power Stroke 6.0. This was done to meet the competition on power and accommodate more stringent smog standards that were coming in ‘04 .

At 275 horsepower and a massive 525 lb-ft of torque, the 7.3 turbo diesel V8 isn’t exactly a slouch and it makes that power without the fuss for which the later six-ohs became known.

In fact, well maintained, i t’s not uncommon for the 7.3 to do half a million miles without blinking an eye. Astoundingly , t his one is more than half-way there, showing over 300K on the clock. Even more incredibly, the odo is about the only place those miles are evident.

Image for article titled At $8,000, Could This 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 7.3 Be A Pretty Big Deal?

Overall, t he truck does look to be in pretty good shape for those miles and a decade and a half of racking them up. The Mineral Gray Metallic paint appears to be without flaw and comes with color-matched lower cladding and rear bumper. Factory chrome wheels bookend the longest running boards you’ve ever seen and those are matched by a humongous side-exiting exhaust tip.

This being a Limited, it’s pretty swank inside. The three rows of seats get leather seating surfaces with captains chairs in the front and second pews. The upholstery looks to be in decent shape save for one back seat that seems to have gotten all the use. Up above there’s a DVD entertainment system and rear-cabin A/C controls since this thing is so big inside—a remarkable 146 cubic feet of cargo space—that, of course, it has different climate zones in front and back.

Image for article titled At $8,000, Could This 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 7.3 Be A Pretty Big Deal?

The big-ass storage area is accessed through Ford’s clever three-piece dutch door and liftgate back portal which gives you the choice of hatch or hatch and swingers . The load area on this one appears clean enough, although the entry apron looks either worn down or is where the Sahara desert is kept in the off-season.

Making up for that, you get a remote start for all those cold mornings when there are un-masked masses congregated around the truck and you need to warm it up. There’s also a custom grille in the nose which is nice, although that’s bookended by headlamps that have gone as yellow as an old man’s beard.

The seller says the truck has been garaged-kept and that makes me keen to see just what sort of garage can fit something this gargantuan. It has also apparently enjoyed on-time oil and filter changes, or so the ad says . There’s no word on other maintenance, and things like the high-pressure injectors on these do tend to need refreshing at around 200K. That, of course, is far in this Excursion’s rearview mirror. The title is clear and the asking price is $8,000.

Image for article titled At $8,000, Could This 2003 Ford Excursion Limited 7.3 Be A Pretty Big Deal?

The Excursion was Ford’s attempt to take on GM’s Suburban. It was the biggest of the company’s SUV lineup, a roll played today by an extended-wheelbase (MAX) edition of the smaller Expedition. There will likely never be a truck like the Excursion from Ford ever again. That means the used market is the only salve for those in need of such girth and vision that extends no further than the border of a Blue Oval badge.

That’s not necessarily a bad thing since these trucks have a rep for being surprisingly reliable, extremely comfortable, and hilariously overburdening when it comes to parking lot stalls. That’s a lot to like. Add to that the stellar 7.3 and you may have a winner on your hands.

The question for you, however, is whether this high-mileage example can command that $8,000 as it sits. Yes, it’s only 2-wheel-drive, but should you not need the added tire spinning capability, that factor makes this less complicated to drive  and a good bit better on the kidneys in terms of ride quality.

What do you think, could all that equal handing over $8,000 to take over ownership? Or, for that much, is this an Excursion you would not go out of your way for?

You decide!

  11. 6.0 vs 7.3 in an Excursion

    Generally, the 7.3 is considered a better hauler and the 6.0 a better motor for around town driving. The 6.0 feels more like a gasser. Later 6.0s are usually fine once you've done the required 'fixes' but I'd stay away from early models. The 7.3 responds very well to mods but the 6.0 is better if left fairly stock.

  17. 7.3 vs 6.0 Excursion

    Welcome to the best forum for Ford Excursions. 6.0 is definitely the hot rod of the two diesels. 6.0 has more than head gasket issues. Does have an excellent trans. Yes, 05 has the newer bumper, grille, lights. 7.3 does have less HP. 7.3 has a decent trans. but not as good as the 6.0.
