The 2001 Ford Excursion built on the successes of its freshman year with very few changes. Two trims were available for the 2001 Excursion: XLT and Limited; the Limited's luxury accoutrements now included fog lamps and mirrors with built-in electric turn signal lights, as well as the heated mirrors, leather upholstery, and other goodies.
Buyers could choose rear-wheel drive, or optional four-wheel drive. The Excursion's 4WD option was marketed for suburban safety, though, rather than for all-terrain versatility; you weren't likely to want to take this landwhale off-road.
When it came to roominess, the Excursion gave new meaning to the 'full-size' in 'full-size SUV'. Its overall length was 226.7 inches, with a width of 79.9 inches. The Excursion seated 9, with ample legroom and headroom for all, and had a cargo capacity of 146.4 cubic feet.
In addition to its size, the Ford Excursion offered plenty of power. The Excursion came off the line with a 5.4 liter overhead cam V-8 that delivered 255 horsepower and 350 lb.-ft. of torque; buyers could upgrade to a 6.8 liter overhead cam V10, with 310 horsepower and 425 lb.-ft. of torque, or go for even more power with a V-8 turbodiesel option.
The new V-8 turbodiesel was another of the 2001 changes to the Excursion. A 7.3 single overhead cam putting out 250 horsepower and 505 lb.-ft. of torque, this engine was fit for a monster. Or an Excursion?
I just purchased a 2001 excursion with v10. The steering column had been replaced due to attempted theft but worked great. I got under dash to install a brake controller and may have knocked something lose. The truck acts like it wants to start but no movement on gauges and acts like there is no fuel being sent... any thoghts
I have a 2001 Ford Excursion. I just had the compressor replaced and when I tried the AC, the rear doesnt do anything. It's not blowing at all. Any ideas?
2001 Excursion with v10 (limited 4x4). Has been a couple weeks, and I have been trying to diagnose the problem. It will produce codes P0174 and P0171. I have already replaced o2 sensors, pcv valve, air filter, did a smoke test for vacuum leaks, nothing has improved. Looking at live data it looks like a vacuum leak, and if that is the case can't find it. About ready to just take it to a mechanic along with a jar of vasoline. At its end.
Can I swap a 2001 for excursion 5.4L Triton out with a 2009 expedition 5.4L Triton? The excursion engine has given me nothing but problems. The expedition I purchased new and haven't had a problem yet. Both have about the same amount of miles 120,000.
I need to know what to do about the auto I agree to buy and the owner agree on the price. We are suppose to
