Our Excursions are probably AS fuel efficient as their Cutlass.

You know you drive an Excursion when you can haul your family of five, a guest, and a sixty inch big screen tv.

...when your 6 year old son wants to drive the X to the pool because it looks so cool and the rear windows roll all the way down. Of course, his alternative is mom's minivan, which he doesn't think is un-cool...yet...but he knows the X rocks.

When your 4 1/2 year old son always wants to ride in it and his favorite activity while riding is to point out all the other trucks and SUV's and ask if the Excursion is bigger than them.

When you go pick up a 3 seater couch that's being given away and the guy says "you should have brought a truck that won't fit" and you slide her in and pick up a 27" TV a couple shovels 2 ciment blocks he was also giving away and on your way home you stop and do $200 worth of groceries and you're still not full...

When it takes all afternoon and a step ladder to wash, clay bar, polish, and wax just the roof on your vehicle, you might drive an excursion.

When you stop at "that place to eat" because there is another excursion there.
