WOW!, That would be cool! I bet it would be pretty difficult trying to park a TT with that thing in a tight campsite!

Were is the third door outside handle? The door gaps are not the same on the third door, driver side is tighter than passenger side.

Nice conversion...but

The truck/suv uhh...hybrid thing is definitely an eye catcher but I have a few critiques.

First, there's the, in my opinion, mismatching rear bumper. It would look much better if it was color matched with the rest of the truck. And perhaps the plastic should be beige instead of black. An 08+ Super Duty rear bumper wouldn't look to bad on there either.


The cargo area just looks incomplete and lacks finish. The black backing of the Super Duty second row seat just looks terrible for a $90,000 vehicle.


And my last gripe...the interior trimmings/plastics don't match. The Excursion portion has the older plastics and the SuperDuty portion has the newer, 08+ plastics. I'd prefer these to all match. The headliner doesn't seem to match either. And I can't forget the two different styles of center consoles that don't match either.










I really am nitpicking though and none of it is something that a little more money can't remedy.

Which ones? In one picture the seats have armrests, in the other they don't. Now that we have started
picking this Excursion apart, there's a lot of things that don't match or seem right for some reason!

I would love to hear an explanation on the differing consoles too!

The way I see it, the ones without armrests are the newer superduty front buckets with the superduty console. The second row seats with armrests are the front seats and console from the old excursion.
