Built on the F-250 Super Duty chassis, the Ford Excursion was produced from 2000 to 2005 and remains the longest and heaviest SUV ever mass-produced. It offered seating for up to 9 passengers and was available with a 5.4L V8, a 6.8L V10, or one of two Power Stroke diesel engines, the 7.3L or the 6.0L.
Collectors prize the Excursion for its immense capability and status as a unique, last-of-its-kind vehicle. There's no modern SUV that matches its combination of heavy-duty construction, interior volume, and towing power. The models equipped with the 7.3L Power Stroke diesel (2000-2003) are the most sought-after due to that engine's legendary reliability and torque.
The market for Excursions is strong, with an average sale price around $29,000. Clean, rust-free, and low-mileage examples, especially those with the 7.3L diesel, command significant premiums. While many are sold as workhorses, top-tier examples are now trading for up to $100,000, cementing their place as modern collectibles.
Buying Tips
- Seek out the 7.3L Power Stroke diesel (2000-2003) for its proven reliability; the later 6.0L Power Stroke (2003.5-2005) requires expensive preventative work.
- Inspect the frame rails, rocker panels, and the bottoms of the doors for rust, a common issue on trucks from northern climates.
- Verify the 4x4 system engages properly. The factory vacuum-operated hubs are a known weak point and are often replaced with more reliable manual locking hubs.
- On V10 models, listen for exhaust leaks from broken manifold studs, a frequent and time-consuming repair.
- Test all interior electronics, as high-trim Limited and Eddie Bauer models are packed with features that can fail over time.
Prices range from under $10,000 for high-mileage gasoline models to $100,000 for pristine, low-mileage diesel examples.
