2005 Ford Excursion Eddie Bauer

The Excursion is Ford's biggest SUV, a three-row giant built on a heavy-duty truck frame that seats up to nine. It drives like the truck it is, with a commanding view of the road and a ride that's steady and stable, though you'll feel every bump. Inside, there's real space for people and cargo, with removable seats and a rear glass that pops open for easy access. It's a serious tow rig that can pull heavy trailers, but you'll pay for it at the pump and in tight parking lots. Step up to the Eddie Bauer from the XLT and you get leather upholstery, wood-grain trim, and power-adjustable pedals, plus the option of the stronger diesel engine. This Eddie Bauer has the 6.0L V8 with 325 horsepower and 560 lb-ft of torque, paired with a five-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, so it pulls hard from a stop and handles heavy trailers without strain. The Eddie Bauer trim adds a premium sound system and a rear-seat DVD player as standard, so rear passengers get their own entertainment on long trips.
