excursion mpg
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE I AM CONSIDERING BUYING A EXCURSION WITH TRITON V-10 ENGINE COULD ANYONE TELL ME WHAT KIND OF FUEL MILEAGE THEY ARE GETTING BOTH 2 WHEEL DRIVE AND 4X4 I WANTED TO GO WITH DIESEL AS THAT IS WHAT MY F-350 IS BUT THE WIFE DOESN'T LIKE THE NOISE AND SMELL ALL INPUT WELCOME AND THANKS IN ADVANCE
David, I just sold a 2002 4x4 limited with a V-10. The best I ever got in it was 13.8 on the freeway with cruise con control on @68 mph. And that was after a tune up K&N airfilter, and a full synthetic oil change over. The digital readout was saying 16.5 but those things lie big time. In town driving was 10-11 average. If you buy one make sure you do the spark plug change out your self. Tightnen plugs very snug with antisieze on them. Plugs can rattle loose and tear out spark plug threads, Aluminum heads make for very big headache.
Hope this helps.
Hope this helps.
