Ford not stopping Excursion production

I assume this has already been reported on here, but in case it hasn't I just wanted to let you folks know that it sounds like Ford has decided not to stop Excursion production.

Dang - just noticed that someone else posted the same thing.

Sorry.

I would delete the entire post, but for some reason the software won't let me do that.

I heard they were testing it and had problems with it being top heavy. I hope they pushed back the rear wheels to make it more stable. The wheelbase iwould be too close if the would do a chop of the rear doors.
2005/6 Bronco concepts/photochoped-except the dropped red one.
The way i want mine

It's amazing what you can do with Adobe Photoshop.

I like this one better actually...

I can see it selling better. Ease of cab ingress and egress sells trucks.

Cool, huh?

I found it a few years ago. Guy did a really good job with the Photoshop! If I recall the guy's name was Sweeney. Try a Google search for Sweeney Bronco Concept. Or something like that. He had other Photoshopped images but no other trucks, if I recall.

It looks as if the back doors would open suicide style. Cool.

If Ford made it...I'd buy 2.

Please make mine a 6.0L...to go!

FYI...Did you know that you can get that grill? It is actually in production. I met the guy who owns the mold to it.

It looks nice. It could be like the extended cab rear doors.
I would like to get a one piece grill.
