How comfortable is your Expedition?

Probably a 9/10. The passenger side dash has a rattle that shows up now and then. Overall I like it.

The window regulator busts loose and rattles. That's my problem anyways.

Give mine a 6/10 for physical comfort. Stiff tires don't take any small road imperfections well. It rides like a truck though which is fine by me. 10/10 for confidence and reliability. Truck has seen 3 feet of snow in 3 hours and didn't even come close to almost being stuck.

For the past several years, I have been driving a 1991 Bronco Eddie Bauer. Compared to that, the 2008 Expedition XLT I bought in May is like riding in a Lincoln Continental. I would rate it 9/10.

Model: 2002 Eddie Bauer Pimpstick Model, Expedition w/5.4L V8

Comfort: 9/10

Visibility: 8/10

Utility: 8/10

Handling & Performance: 7.5/10

Economy: 7.5/10

Reliability: 8.5/10

Any more categories ?

I give mine a 10. It's the reason I bought it.

Whenever I drive it the thought "I love my truck" runs through my head at least once.

I will be honest, I feel that every morning. Especially the cold -30 temps we get here in the winter on some mornings. When it starts right up with no problem, it really makes me proud to own such a hard working truck. Wouldn't trade mine for a brand new F150 any day!

When mine is 100% I share the same thoughts. Even when its not I still love to drive it.

But as far as comfort.... I used to think it was very comfortable ride but my 2010 Taurus Sho is significantly more smooth and quiet. But my Expy is 10 years older so.......

Can't beat the throttle response and instant torque of the blown 5.4 though. It's quiet dramatic when I have not driven it in a while. Woo Hoo!!

I'm 6'7", and kind of had to buy my truck. But all things considered, I'm glad I did. Only thing I'd criticize it on is the visibility, my Trooper was much easier to estimate the distance between the vehicle and surroundings as this truck is, but then again, the Expy is way bigger.

Sound 9/10: This truck is WAY quieter than anything I've ever had before.

Comfort 8/10: Seats are a bit stiff and too wide... But oh so much room!!!!

Handling 7/10: Pretty good, way better than the trooper, but I still know it's a truck on the freeway and am turning!

Utility 9/10: POWER!!!! This thing tows like a beast.

Economy 5/10: 9mpg city, 14mpg hwy.

Reliability 10/10: always starts, never stranded, always keeps going and if something does ever go wrong, she lets me know way ahead of time.

I would give mine an 8. I don't mind the A/T tires being a little louder that the stock Continentals. In fact when these need replaced I going to replace the P rated tires with something a little heavier duty for towing. The seats are as comfortable as any car I've driven and there is plenty of room for the whole family to ride comfortably. So far it has taken us everywhere we have wanted to go.
