2000 Ford Excursion Towing Capacity Explained! (With Chart)

 In this article, we are going to take a look at the towing capacity of the 2000 Ford Excursion, to see just how capable they really are and the results may surprise some of you out there!

What You Need To Know To Determine Your Towing Capacity:

To determine your maximum trailer weight rating of your Excursion, you really only need to look at three different things: 

• The type of engine you have equipped (5.4L, 6.8L, or 7.3L diesel)
• The axle ratio that is being used (with higher ratios like 4.10 offering greater capacity than lower ones like 3.73)
• The drive configuration (2WD or 4WD). 

Each of these specific variables plays a significant role in determining your SUV's towing capabilities, but knowing where to find these pieces of information is one of the other things that people can get hung up on, which we will go through in this article.

There are other factors like GCWR, GVWR and payload rating that are also important metrics that you will also need to look into.

2000 Ford Expedition (Overall) Towing Capacity

The towing capacity for the 2000 Ford Excursions had a pretty wide range, which varied between 6,200 to 10,000 pounds, that was really influenced very heavily, by the choice of engine that was equipped in the vehicle.

The other two variables that came into play were the axle ratios and the drivetrain configuration (2wd or 4WD) that also had an impact on the trailer weight ratings, but much less significant than the engines had on the numbers. These three factors (combined) played some kind of role in determining these SUVs capability to handle different towing loads.

2000 Ford Excursion Engine Options

There were three different engine options that were offered for these SUVs and like I stated earlier, these made the biggest impact when it came to overall numbers in the ratings.

Models equipped with the 5.4-liter (V8) engine had the lowest ratings, with a capacity of up to 7,300 pounds. The 6.8-liter (V10) engine, along with the 7.3l diesel option were both capable of up to 10,000 pounds, which is a significant difference of almost 3,000 lbs!

5.4L (V8) Towing Capacity

Overall: 2000 Ford Excursions, equipped with a 5.4L engine, showcased two different towing capacity ratings that gave us a range of between 6,200-7,300 pounds. 

2WD Models: The 2WD models, fitted (exclusively) with a 3.73 ratio, had a towing capacity of up to 6,200 pounds. 

4WD Models: In contrast, the 4WD models, which used a higher 4.10 ratio, boasted a greater towing capacity of up to 7,300 pounds.

This increased capacity in the 4WD models was attributed not only to the higher axle ratio, but also to their greater Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR).

6.8L (V10) Towing Capacity

Overall: Excursions equipped with the 6.8L engine demonstrated a towing capacity ranging from 9,600 to 10,000 pounds, influenced by axle ratios and drive types, but it was only a minor difference.

2WD Models:  2WD models with the 6.8l engine could tow up to 10,000 pounds, no matter what axle ratio you had.

4WD Models:  In contrast, 4WD models equipped with the higher 4.10 ratio were capable of that higher 10,000 pound rating, while the models with a 3.73 ratio had a lower capacity of up to 9,600 pounds, highlighting the impact of the axle ratio on the vehicle's towing capabilities for the 4WD models.

7.3L (Diesel) Towing Capacity

The 2000 Ford Excursion models equipped with the 7.3L diesel engine boasted a maximum towing capacity of up to 10,000 pounds, across the board.

This impressive capability was consistent across all variants, regardless of the axle ratio or whether the vehicle was a 2WD or 4WD model, demonstrating the robust power of the 7.3L diesel engine in the Excursion lineup.

How To Find The Information You Need...

Like I mentioned earlier, you will need to know a few things about your vehicle to figure out just how much you can pull. Let's look at how to go about finding that information, real quick, shall we?

VIN Decoder (driving-tests.org)

Vin Decoder: Using a VIN decoder online is free and it will give you two out of the three things you need, right out the gate.

Just grab your VIN and plug it into any online VIN decoder and it will give you the engine used in the vehicle and whether it was a 2WD or 4WD version.

Your VIN can be found on the vehicle itself, and the two locations that are the easiest to find are on your dashboard (driver's side) or on the safety certification label, which is located on the driver's side door pillar or the door itself and will have the VIN on it.

Axle Ratio: The axle ratio might be trickier to figure out because it does typically require more work to figure out, for vehicles of this age. If you open your driver's side door and look on the pillar or the door, you will find a safety certification label, like I mentioned earlier.

Along the bottom of this label, you can find the word "AXLE" printed and below that should be a code. All you need to do is take that code and look it up online to figure out your axle ratio, due to there not being an axle code "cheat sheet" available for these later model year vehicles.

If you happen to look on the label and it turns up no axle code or you can't read the code, then you will either have to have a dealership run the VIN for you to see if they can help figure it out, or you will have to climb under the vehicle and look for a tag on the rear differential. A number will be stamped into a small metal tag that should contain the number you are looking for, but be aware that these tags can be hard to find and hard to read, sometimes.

Towing and Payload Capacity of the Ford Excursion Through The Years

The Ford Excursion was a behemoth of an SUV, dominating the roads from 2000 to 2005. With its imposing size and Super Duty truck underpinnings, the Excursion was a popular choice for those needing a car with massive hauling and towing capabilities. At the heart of its power was the reliable Ford 4R100 transmission .

Payload: Room for Everything

Towing: a powerhouse for pulling.

Perhaps the Ford Excursion’s greatest strength was its impressive towing capacity. The Excursion effortlessly handled heavy loads, and its maximum towing capacity varied across the years and powertrain choices:

• 1999-2000: Model years equipped with the 5.4L Triton V8 could tow up to 8,500 lbs, while the 6.8L Triton V10 upped that to 10,000 lbs. Opting for the 7.3L Power Stroke turbodiesel boosted the rating to a hefty 11,000 lbs.
• 2001-2005: Towing numbers remained similar, with those final model years seeing slightly improved ratings in some configurations.

The Ford 4R100 Transmission: Built for the Task

The Ford 4R100 4-speed automatic transmission was the heart and soul of the Excursion’s drivetrain. Known for its durability and strength, this heavy-duty transmission was a perfect match for the vehicle’s size and capabilities. The 4R100’s ample gear ratios and smooth shifts ensured effortless power delivery, even when towing at the Excursion’s maximum.

Towing Tips:

To get the most out of your Excursion’s limited towing capacity and ensure safe operation:

Understand your limits: Know the weight of your trailer and the maximum capacity of your vehicle.

Maintain your vehicle: Regular maintenance, especially for the transmission, is key to reliability.

Use proper hitches and safety equipment: Use appropriate hitches, sway control devices, and trailer brakes.

Drive responsibly: Adjust your driving style for increased weight (slower acceleration, broader turns).

Choosing a Ford Excursion Today

While production ceased in 2005, the Ford Excursion remains a sought-after SUV on the used market for those seeking substantial towing and hauling capabilities. When considering a used Excursion, pay close attention to:

Engine choice: V8s offer adequate power, while the Power Stroke diesel is ideal for heavy, regular towing.

Transmission health: Look for a smooth-shifting 4R100 transmission with a solid service history.

Overall condition: These vehicles were often used hard; a thorough inspection is vital.

The Ford Excursion, with its robust build and trusted 4R100 transmission, was a true workhorse in its day. If you need serious towing and hauling capacity, a well-maintained Excursion can still be an exceptionally capable choice.

2001 Ford Excursion Towing Capacity

Find out how much the 2001 Ford Excursion can pull, across 4 different trims.

In this article, we'll give you important data and details about the 2001 Ford Excursion, including the towing capacity, engine size, gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), curb weight, payload capacity, horsepower, torque, axle ratio, drive type, transmission type, and more.

Select a trim from the list below to view the towing capacity data. All trims for the 2001 Ford Excursion have the same towing capacity of 11,000 lbs.

If you need any help explaining the terms used in the tables below, you can find a glossary of terms at the bottom of this article .

2001 Ford Excursion Towing Capacity Terms

In the tables above, you'll see a lot of terms that you may not be familiar with. Here's a quick rundown of what they each mean and why each of them is important when it comes to towing capacity.

Maximum Towing Capacity

This is the maximum weight that the 2001 Ford Excursion can tow.

If you are driving at altitudes above 3,280ft (or 1,000m) of sea level, the weight you can tow needs to be reduced by about 10% for every additional 3,280ft (or 1,000m) of altitude. This is because the air is thinner at higher altitudes, which means that the engine has to work harder to pull the same weight.

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)

The GVWR the maximum weight of the 2001 Ford Excursion when fully loaded. This includes the weight of the vehicle, passengers, cargo, and any accessories or equipment that you have added to the vehicle.

You can find this number in the vehicle owner's manual, or on a sticker on the driver's side door jamb.

Curb Weight

The curb weight of the Ford Excursion is the weight of the vehicle with a full tank of gas, but with no passengers or cargo and the standard options that come with the vehicle.

Payload Capacity

The term "payload" is the weight of all the things that you put in the vehicle, including passengers, cargo, and any accessories or equipment that you have added. It can be increased by upgrading certain options, for example:

• Better suspension springs
• Coil-over shock absorbers
• A longer truck bed
• Attached a trailer to the vehicle
• Adding bed rails

Horsepower is a measure of the power of the engine. It is the amount of work that the engine can do in a given amount of time.

In simple terms, the more horsepower a vehicle has, the more weight it can pull.

Measured in lb-ft, torque is the amount of force that the engine can apply to the wheels. This is an important metric for towing because better torque means you can pull weight at lower RPMs, which is better for the engine.

The axle ratio is the ratio of the number of turns of the drive shaft for every one turn of the wheels. The higher the axle ratio, the more torque is applied to the wheels.

The drive type is the type of transmission that the 2001 Ford Excursion has. There are three main types:

• Front-wheel drive (FWD)
• Rear-wheel drive (RWD)
• All-wheel drive (AWD)

All-wheel drive is the best type of drive type for towing because it distributes the weight of the vehicle evenly across all four wheels. Rear-wheel drive is also acceptable, but front-wheel drive is not recommended because they aren't able to pull as much weight.

Transmission Type

Transmission usually means manual or automatic. Some vehicles have a towing mode that will protect the transmission from damage when towing heavy loads - which can cause overheating and failure.

Turbocharger

A turbocharger is a device that forces more air into the engine, which increases the amount of fuel that can be burned. This increases the amount of power that the engine can produce.

If your vehicle has a turbocharger, it will be able to tow more weight than a vehicle without one.

The wheelbase is the distance between the front and rear wheels. The longer the wheelbase, the more weight the vehicle can tow.

Front Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)

The front GAWR is the maximum weight that the front axle can support. This is usually a number that is stamped on the axle itself.

Rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)

The rear GAWR is the maximum weight that the rear axle can support. This is usually a number that is stamped on the axle itself.
