I wanted to take the time to tell you all thank you first of all! The help on here is very much appreciated! If anyone has looked at any of my other posts I have jumped around in a few different vehicles in the last two years, in what I believe is a search for the perfect vehicle. I know that isn't probably possible,but no I am considering going back to an Expedition EL like my previous 08' but two years newer in a 10' Limited . I thought getting an Excursion I would like it better, but I find myself trying to make it an Expy. My reasons: better ride and less cabin noise, fold flat seats, independent rear suspension, comfortable cabin, and family likes it better. I know some may argue it's no comparison because of the Superduty to 1/2 ton chassis but these are my reasons. I know I won't have the towing capacity or diesel power, but frankly I don't need it , the diesel is more for a cool factor. I averaged 15.6 mpgs with my 08' Expy EL and now get 15.5 average out of my 7.3 diesel EX so mileage is about the same except gas is a little cheaper. Other reason I have been considering the switch is the price is do rust repair $2000-2500, new springs $1000, new shocks $400, new sway bar links, fix driver's and passenger seat heat elements and new driver's seat covers $450. These prices would make the Excursion back to what I would be satisfied with but I have trouble justifying sticking that much into it. Regardless I like both vehicles but like the Expedition EL better right now. Either way I appreciate all responses on my posts and messages and after Saturday when I look at another Expy EL I'll either be back on here doing mods or right next door in the Expy forum.

Thanks all

Daewoo will do! I am definitely going to look it over well, because it makes no sense to go from one with rust to another and spend more money! I will let everyone know how it goes and I took a lot of measurements of my EX so I can give an accurate comparison of space ,height, and width to the Expedition EL.
