The 2004 Ford Excursion is a full-size SUV, a testament to Ford's commitment to building robust and capable vehicles. It was the largest SUV in the Ford lineup, designed for those seeking spaciousness, towing capacity, and a commanding presence on the road. The Excursion was built on the same platform as the Ford F-250 Super Duty, sharing its heavy-duty chassis and suspension. This ensured exceptional strength and durability, making it suitable for hauling heavy loads and navigating challenging terrains. The Excursion offered seating for up to eight passengers, with ample cargo space for luggage, gear, or even a small camper. Its spacious interior was also a highlight, with comfortable seating, plenty of legroom, and a well-equipped dashboard.

Both engines were mated to a four-speed automatic transmission, offering smooth and reliable gear changes. The 2004 Excursion also featured a heavy-duty four-wheel drive system, ensuring superior traction and off-road capabilities.
