The four-door Excursion has been freshened
for the 2005 model year. The vehicle offers
eight- or nine-passenger seating with either
two- or four-wheel drive. The selling point
for the Excursion is definitely its cargo
room: fold down the seats for a cavernous
cargo area with over 146cu. ft. of space.
The 2X4 models come with a 5.4-liter SEFI
Triton V8 engine, which produces 255 horsepower.
The 4X4 models come with a 6.8L Triton V10,
which pumps out 310 horsepower. For all models
you’ll have an option to go diesel,
in either 4X2 or 4X4, with the 6.8L Power
Stroke Turbo Diesel, which pumps out 325 horsepower.
It is important to check out all of the available
towing options for the excursion: fully equipped,
the vehicle can tow trailers weighing up to
11,000 lbs. The Excursion comes in four trims:
XLS, XLT, Eddie Bauer and Limited.
XLS – The XLS comes
standard with a rear air conditioner, cruise,
ABS and a front bench seat that gives the
vehicle nine-person seating capacity.
