Overview & Reviews

The Excursion's final year of production is 2004 so there are few changes from last year. Ford's excellent new 6.0-liter turbodiesel V8 replaces last year's 7.3-liter diesel. Besides offering considerably more horsepower and torque, the new engine has cleaner emissions and gets better gas mileage. Several new options are available; these include wireless headphones for the rear-seat entertainment package and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. Body-side cladding and illuminated running boards are no longer available on XLT models. Also note that the trim level structure has been revised slightly, as base XLS and midlevel XLT trim replace XLT Value and XLT Premium.

• Substantial passenger and cargo capacity, impressive towing ability, diesel engine option.

• Unwieldy size, trucklike driving characteristics, poor fuel economy, high sticker price.

  this truck is great - 2004 Ford Excursion
  By bob marshall - May 9 - 2:00 am

  i have always wanted this truck. i traded in her 98 expedition.my limiteds color is mineral gray which is a very rich color.i had a remote starter,power sunroof and navigation installed by the dealer.i had the nav unit un-installed and the original cd6-radio re- installed.the reason being is that with the nav unit you lose your radio controls in the steering wheel and the console and you can only listen to dvd movies on the headphones.my wife did not care for these inconviences so the original unit went back in.i am getting 14 mpg in in-town driving and with the 44 gallon tank it is weeks between fill-ups

  more subtle than an h2 with more useful interior room. great for road trips and hauling the gang around. nothing like getting flipped off by the gal in the prius.

  Ideal vehicle for tailgating. You can easily haul BOTH person and their gear. This vehicle is solid and has excellent build quality. The V-10 gets 14+ on the highway, 13+ otherwise and has sufficient power. Far exceeds roominess and feel of friends (smaller!) GM Tahoe XL SUV. ONE GREAT VEHICLE.

  We test drove other SUVs and always came back to the Ford Excursion. The Expedition is popular and everybody seems like theyre buying it, but we wanted more towing power and more room for the family to stretch out and enjoy. The Excursion is set apart from the others and we can feel and see it as we drive up and down the interstate. Its fun, challenging and rewarding. The pricing was okay. And the gas mileage, well, we knew what we were getting ourselves into when we bought it. Had two Windstars prior to this and we accept the Excursion and the 10.2 or so gas mileage. We still put it on the highway.
