The value of ours won't drop because a new EX based on the 6.7 would cost $70k. Also they would be aluminum like the 2017+ super duties.

I'd find a way to buy one, but I don't believe it would be as dependable as the original EX. There is too much technology in the trucks, the aluminum body will cost a TON to fix. Aside from those, I'd like a new EX for my big family.

So many contradictions, I don't know where to begin...

From the article:

"Indefinitely, the engine spec that is employed for the Excursion series. The Ford manufacture has actually not confirmed the information. Depending upon the rumors, 2017 Ford Excursion takes benefit of 2 variants of engine that has the precise same platform with F150 series amongst 5.0 liter V8 engine or 3.6 liter Ecoboost V6 engine. Probably, it could be guaranteed that the engine efficiency of the Excursion series has the terrific good quality in its class."

And...

"2017 Ford Excursion will probably be the best car a problem for the competitors in the global automobile market. Regrettably, there are some information by Ford about the release date and rate of this automobile definitely. In line with the rumors, the Ford Excursion 2017 might be presented in the market around the future 2016, when the cost is can not approximated. For the vehicle fans have to be patient for awaiting the next info and truths in the future year."

Have you ever read instruction manuals written in Formosa? That is how the above reads. Anyone with any semblance of sentence structure, syntax and current English grammar does not compose sentences in this manner.



In the second instance:


"2017 Ford Excursion is a new full-size crossover SUV item by Ford manufacture. The new model of the car will presents the advancements, attractiveness, and modifications by manufacture. In addition, the high performance and fascinating physical appearance from the Excursion series could make the unique sense in worldwide car market. This new SUV edition will likely boost the demands in market through 2017 Excursion."


More of the same.

"When it comes about the exterior concept of new Excursion, the information from the company is unclear too. Some rumors stated that the engine specification has the identical with F150 series, risk the exterior of the 2017 Ford Excursion is similar with F150 series, primarily on the entrance facet. The bolder and much better are designed for the car in front side, but the other sides are redesigned a lot more modern day and superb. The fascinating, elegance, and luxurious of styling of the Excursion series can bring the enhancements for the exterior concepts visual appearance to improve the demands in the market place."





Here is something to ponder, if does bring back the Excursion nameplate are you really going to believe they won't name it the II.

Bronco II, LTD II, Mustang II, there is a precedence.

There are several sites out there with the same info, a 2017 Excursion based on an F150. Definitely not a Super Duty Excursion like we have.
It would seem to be a conclusion of the obvious to the reader amongst us that a Nigerian Prince has authored a most uninformed speculation as to the near future happiness for enthusiast of the Excursion model SUV.

Ford is going to revive the Pinto as the little sibling of the Bronco, as a compact crossover.

I think that Ford is only going to make a very limited run of 2017 EXs solely for the Nigerian Royal family.

As long as they have the blue racing stripes ala GT40, but maybe that would be confusing.
