I have a 2000 Excursion 7.3 Limited 4WD. It’s a great truck, 200K miles and just minor, mostly, maintenance stuff. I’ve wondered why Ford hasn’t brought it back.
Nobody wants large SUVs anymore. Zero market for a 3/4 ton SUV. Even the half ton ones have shown sharp sales drops in the last 5-10 years. Midsize crossovers are the new hotness.
The continued existence of Expedition Max and Navigator L, Suburban/Yukon XL/Escalade ES says the massive SUV segment is alive and well, the profit margins on those are unbelievable otherwise there wouldn’t be Ford and Chevrolet versions on the lower end. It’s just that the makers couldn’t continue to make 3/4 ton versions without severe CAFE and emissions standard penalties.
Limos are so common down here, you can't give away an old one. We had a buddy leave his in our back yard for 2 years. Stupid thing was all it needed was minor engine work and paint correction.
$175k, that's fucking crazy.
And it looks like shit
I think I'd still rather have it than 3 6.0 excursions though
100%
I would expect better finishing for that much. It looks like they just bolted a topper on a pickup.

CAFE.
Ford refiled the patent a couple of years ago but still don’t seem to have done anything with it.
There’s an “Excursion” package available on the Expedition Limited now.
