I had a question, I was wondering what you thought of the v10s, vs the diesel.

I have heard good and bad about the v10s, how they are very thirsty, get horrible gas mileage, and aren't that powerful in regards to towing up hill and if I had the choice, diesel would be better. Some people however really like their v10 and said they would get another. Is it an apple vs orange type of thing? Any pros and cons you guys can think of?

We had a excursion 2wd with the v10 and loved it. Had plenty of power. We pulled a 27 foot camper behind it. It did only get 8-10 mpg but we thought it was great.

It is an apple and orange thing. The V10 does great. Ours is getting 17.5 Mpg so that ain't bad. I have pulled alot that guys with diesels around here won't pull. I Haven't had one problem with a V10 yet and we have been buying them since 2009. I know for a fact I would buy a V10 again before a diesel sorry diesel fans. Plus Gas is cheaper then diesel.

Well the delarship that the excursion is at is crazy. They want $8000 plus our 1987 Plymouth Reliant and our 1986 Ford F150 Plus payments. That is crazy. We should have it paid off at that much.
