How much room is in the back of an Excursion?

In brief, the Ford Excursion offers about 60 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, roughly 110–130 cubic feet with the third row folded (second row up), and around 180 cubic feet when both second and third rows are folded. Actual figures vary by model year and trim.


Cargo space by seating configuration


Below are typical ranges for common Excursion configurations, reflecting seats up or folded arrangements across 1999–2005 models. The numbers are given in cubic feet and can vary slightly by year, wheelbase, and optional equipment.



  • Behind the third row (third row in use): about 60 cu ft.

  • Behind the second row (third row folded, second row up): about 110–130 cu ft.

  • Behind the first row (both second and third rows folded): around 180 cu ft.


Note: These figures are approximate capacities. Real-world space can be affected by cargo organizers, spare tire placement, and cargo that limits floor space.


Year-to-year and trim variations


During its production years, Ford offered several seating configurations and trims that can shift the exact cargo numbers by a small margin. The ranges above cover the most common configurations used in marketing materials and owner manuals for 1999–2005 Excursions.


Why the space matters for buyers


For large families, campers, and long-haul travelers, the Excursion’s cargo footprint is a key consideration. The ability to fold seats to expand space translates into flexibility for gear, luggage, or equipment while keeping seating for passengers when needed.


Summary


The Ford Excursion prioritizes space: roughly 60 cu ft behind the third row, about 110–130 cu ft with the third row folded, and around 180 cu ft with both rows folded. Exact numbers depend on the model year, trim, and options, so verify the specs for the specific vehicle you’re considering.
