Ford ExcursionIn terms of size, the Ford Excursion is the king of big sport-utilities. Supremely stable at speed, 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 can tow up to 11,000 pounds and seat 8-9.
If and when I find an Exursion online within my price range, would it be best to ask the seller to take the truck to a Ford dealer or to a diesel mechanic for a 3rd party inspection? This is of course if I'm buying from out of state. Your feedback appreciated! Thanks, Graham.
Absolutely. But YOU pick the dealer and YOU make the arrangements so the dealer is working for you. That keeps everybody on the up and up.
