Certified Pre-Owned: the 2005 Ford Excursion
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2005 Ford Excursion for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the 2005 Ford Excursion, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The numbers in plain words
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Who it is for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
What the Excursion is like
As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Excursion for a week and see how it fits your life.
Narrowing it down
Within the 2005 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Still deciding?

Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2005 Ford Excursion from us first.
