Before you sign for the Excursion
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Owners filed 129 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, tires and service brakes; have those parts checked.
What the figures tell you
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Living with the Excursion
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway.
A good match for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Rent it for a week first
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Excursion answers more than any brochure.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Year and trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Questions first?
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
