Excursion weight classification?
good morning group,
I have recently purchased a 2000 Ford Excursion XLT, 2WD, 6.8L V-10 and LOVE my new (to me) ride!
My question is this: Hoe is my truck classified weight-wise; 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton, or? I do need to replace shocks, and I would like to hear what others of Excursion owners prefer. I have looked through previous posts, but have only seen one recommendation for Rancho 9000 shocks.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

As the others have said, yes it is essentially an F-250 3/4 ton vehicle but most states consider it's fully enclosed and multi row interior as a station wagon or car. I like that, here in PA my EX cost me less to register than my old 1/2 ton Chevy truck!
I use and really like my Rancho RS9000XL adjustable shocks, many others here use the Bilstien (don't recall the model number) shocks that are also a very good choice, then of course you have more economically priced Monroe OEM style shocks too.
