Leftover Excursions?
I am just curious what happens to the left over 2005 Excursions that are unsold in the dealer lots. Do they send them back to the Ford Truck Plants? The reason I am asking this is because i am thinking about replacing my gasoline SUV for a diesel excursion.
Thanks

They don't go back to Ford. Vehicles are a one way trip from the maker. Some do go to auctions, and others simply wait for a buyer. Eventually, they all sell.
As far as "gas sucking V10s" are concerned...I too did not want a diesel. Friends have 5.4l F250s and their gas mileage is no better than mine, with a heavier Excursion.

When you are searching for your leftover X don't limit yourself to "New" in your search engine. Mine was an "Executive Return" with 2000 miles. Because of that it never came up as new, I had to employee "used" in my search.

I searched for everything from 2000 to 2005, with mileage over 100 000 and since I didnt know where you live, I did the whole country.
You can do the same search on autotrader.com or another one at kbb.com or autobytel.com
There are still plenty of them out there.
If you insist on a new one, I had one dealer CLAIM he could find new ones from other ford dealers but I never confirmed it.

Well, crap!
I couldn't see the link.
Let me know, what year, what engine, how many miles and price and I'll find it and also, if you can see the zip code of the individual or dealer.
I'd love to see an Orange X
