The 2003 Ford Excursion is a full-size SUV that was produced by Ford Motor Company from 1999 to 2005. It was built on the same platform as the Ford F-250 Super Duty pickup truck and shared many of its components. The Excursion was designed to be a spacious and capable vehicle, offering seating for up to nine passengers and a maximum towing capacity of over 10,000 pounds. It was marketed as a luxury SUV, featuring plush interior appointments, a wide range of available features, and powerful engine options. The Excursion was particularly popular among families and those who needed a vehicle with ample cargo space and towing capability.

The 2003 Ford Excursion was available with two engine options: a 5.4-liter V8 and a 6.8-liter V10. The 5.4L engine produced 285 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, while the 6.8L engine offered 310 horsepower and 425 lb-ft of torque. Both engines were mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Standard features included air conditioning, power windows and locks, and a rearview camera. Optional features included leather upholstery, navigation, a sunroof, and a premium sound system. Despite its size and capability, the Excursion faced criticism for its fuel economy and handling. It was also not as popular as the Chevrolet Suburban or the GMC Yukon XL, which were considered to be more refined and efficient. The Excursion was discontinued after the 2005 model year due to declining sales and increasing fuel prices.
