Why bother with a poll like this? Different folks have different needs AND desires. It's like asking which color is best. And FYI, the best color is white. (Mine's red.)

This works both ways now. Different folks have different needs and desires.
So, please define "best" as used above when discussing white paint .

The prettiest color on an Excursion is black.

I don't about that. Mine's a slate blue that's pretty sweet and your Ex's color sure looks sharp to VaSheriff.

Unfortunately you left out of this poll, the best combustion engine of all time:

The Chevrolet small block: 283, 302, 307, 327, 350, the best motors ever made Chevy small blocks all of the way!! Probably would lean more to the 350 or 327 out of those! Even in a Ford or Dodge forum you don't get many arguments about that!!

The best is what I currently have which is a all black Excursion with a 7.3 - The best used to be a white F250 with a 6.0 and before that the best was a silver F250 with a 6.8. The next best will be....... a while.
