  Ford SUV - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Mike - December 1 - 9:40 pm

  Been a Ford fan my whole life this monster of an SUV has never failed me what so ever. For the size its got good mpg, and it can have plenty of people in them at once. It can tow just about any thing a truck can as well, which is good for me because I love to go camping in a camper and take my boat places.

  The bomb diggity - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Dave - April 8 - 4:53 pm

  This truck is the best vehicle I have ever owned. Its big, bad, and hungry for fun. I have five kids in it at all times and we love it. I hope I can find a new one in the future. Weve had maintenance issues only and it has 80,000+ miles.

  Either you LOVE IT or you HATE IT... - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Jenny5150 - January 14 - 10:32 pm

  I LOVE IT! Its comfortable to be in whether a driver or passenger (front, rear or 3rd row) and Im 61"! Its not exactly a smooth ride, but I consider this vehicle a truck, not a luxury SUV. My husband I purchased it for its function (cargo capacity and towing ability.) We bought this truck/suv knowing fully well that the fuel economy would bite. How could you think otherwise? Im already brokenhearted knowing that Ford will no longer be making the Excursion.

  Greatest SUV ever - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Kevin St.Amant - June 2 - 8:54 am

  This vehicle is as tough as a tank, yet gentle and extremely comfortable. Will tow just about anything. Excellent ergonomics and a great family vehicle. 7.3L Diesel engine is the best and longest lasting production engine made, very durable and reliable.

  Doesnt hold value. - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By J T Raesz - July 6 - 2:00 am

  I really love my Excursion. My only complaint is, based on Edmunds, the value of my 2002 is about $5,000.00 less than I owe (after almost 2 years) AND I GOT 0% INTEREST. That is pretty darn bad. Even the dealership where I bought the Excursion was not going to give me pay-off....then they tried to sale me a 2004. Other than holding its value this truck is awesome. We take it everywhere. I have three growing boys (teens and pre-teens) and we can all fit in the truck very comfortably. It is the ultimate "large family" vehicle. Plus, Ford makes a great diesel engine.

  Get the Diesel - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By tracman in the world - March 31 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car because i was driving a lot in dangerous traffic and wanted to be able to tow my camper. Since then i have taken all sorts of stuff in this car. With the diesel engine it has great pick-up and i get 18mpg average with 20 on the highway. turbo whine gives me that big truck feeling and lots of passing power. The 4wd drive feature is weak especially when you are still supposed to get out to lock the hub for serious off roading

  Its good... - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Winston Cup - March 19 - 2:00 am

  Race car and trailer with tires and fuel weighs in at 10300lbs. and this is the only vehicle that can manage it without going to a F250/350 pickup truck(which I did have prior to the Excursion coming out. Going through Yellowstone Park with 2 baby seats filled and 5 adults plus all the luggage was excellent in this vehicle...we had all the room we needed. I have the PowerStroke Diesel and I assure you it gets 20.3 on the highway and no less than 17.8 on average which is as good as most vehicles on the road. Of course I use Cruise Control to its maximum. This is my second Excursion(the first being a 2000 model).

  This Truck ROCKS! - 2002 Ford Excursion
  By Cory Johnson - February 27 - 2:00 am

  WHAT A TRUCK. I will say that it is worth it to go for the diesel engine. not only is the fuel economy great considering the size of the vehicle but the sound is incredible! It gets about the same mileage as my01 Cherokee. get the 4wd. its handy in the winter and itloods tough. Its amazing in the snow. AMAZING! its more comfortable and easier to drive than expected. Diesel is typically cheaper than gasoline. It is a little tough to park. Ill get over it.small price to pay. If you are thinking about buying one DO IT! You wont regret it the diesel has a standard 100k warranty and everyone tells me that the diesel willrun a half a million miles.
