Providing you are pull into the large parking structure..While paying for parking, ask the attendant for the "yellow tag" signifying "over-sized" vehicle, which he'll place under your wiper. When you pull away, the staff directing traffic will kindly direct you to the left, instead of the right - going outside with the RVs. Works every time for me!

That explains it! I've always leaned to the right so I never saw any interesting options to the left before now!

Way too true!

You're free to admire it, but it's not for sale!

Fuel stops
You know you're driving an Excursion when you stop at a truck stop to get diesel and you pull to the 18 wheeler pumps and the truckers ask you about your truck. Love that! And you know you belong!

You know you are driving an Excursion when you have to slide through the backseat to get to the other side of the garage!

This is why I'm working on the 46' extension of my garage! 66'x28' should finally get me enough space to work on this beast!
