Bought a new Suburban during The Great Panic of 2008. Literally stole it.

I use it for business, and that means lots of towing.

Not sure what I will replace it with in a couple of years. Ford quit making the Excursion. But I know it won’t be a Gubment Motors product.

Ford has the Expedition el, an expanded version, thats nearly identical dimension/ wheelbase as suburban, instead of excursion.

Ford pulled a really sly fast-one with getting rid of the Excursion. They were taking a lot of flak over it, and given that it went against their stated direction of becoming more eco-friendly, they announced - in a VERY big way - that it was going to be discontinued. Lefties cheered! Focuses were sold!

THEN they came out with an expanded/extended version of the Expedition that's basically an Excursion with different sheet-metal tweaking and a different nameplate.
