    2007 Expedition EL. Just took delivery. Gas shocker!

    Yeah my 05 did do better around town but not by much. Since the EL is a lot heavier the gas mileage is not going to be great. Kind of why I waited for 2010 with the six speed tranny. I now average 12/13 around town and 17/18 on the highway.

    Please help the newby

    I had 125K miles on my 2005 Limited before I traded it in this year for the 2010. That Expedition was single handedly the best truck I have ever owned. The only thing I had to replace in that was brakes, (60K) serpentine belt (80K) and a battery (100K). Now, I had a 2003 prior that had a lot...

    Wheel question??

    There won't be any problems. I ran aftermarket rims that were 20x9.5 with 305 50's on them and the didn't have ant problems at all.

    Hopefully Small engine issue ... Help??

    Do a search for testing the coil packs. I believe you have to "ohm" them out. Also make sure you didn't "over oil" the K&N as well. Several documented issues of over oiling the filter causing CEL to go off and run like crap. Try cleaning up the throttle body (MAF) as well. Last but not...

    $58,295 for new 2010 Eddy..

    Damn Rick, Sounds like we made the same deal. I got 10K for my trade (had 125K) on my 05 LTD. But yeah a little over 46K is what I got for my White LTD EL.

    New Expy & new to the forum

    Congrats. Retired AF myself here in Va. I just traded my 05 in for a 2010 Limited. A lot of nice upgrades. The navigation unit is sweet. Power rear hatch and the power running boards are a great option. Good luck with it.

    Who has the most miles on the odometer of their expedition?

    Spark Plug Change on 3V motor

    Good Info. As I am going to change mine in the spring. I will say this though. I have 120K on my 05 and it is holding in there like a champ. This has been an EXTREMELY good truck. Much better than my old 2003.

    '04 Expy whining noise??

    Probably the infamous rear differential whine. I had the rear diff replaced 3 times on my 03.

    rear end noise

    Might actually be the front Diff. There is a TSB out to rebuild the front clutch packs with stiffer springs. What year Expy?

    Hawling sound

    Rear differential.

    Thinking of buying 03+ expedition

    That is true. TSB 06-15-2 tells you the procedures to properly remove the plugs from the 3V motor. However keep in mind the 2V also has a TSB out 07-15-2 which warns of thread removal in aluminum heads. A much more severe problem to worry about.

    Thinking of buying 03+ expedition

    All EB's come with sub-woofer and a nice sound package. Our DVD player sounds like a movie theater on wheels. Try to look at the 04/05's More so 05 and up because they have the 3V 5.4 that has more power and better gas mileage. Plus they are more reliable than the 03/04.

    Ford Expedition reliability

    First time I seen this also. Registered my 05.

    Reliabilty of 03 Expeditions

    Too many problems with the 03's brake dust power window motors rear differential whines Front Diff clutch slippage spark plugs pulling threads out of the cylinder heads All have TSB's. Do your research before you buy.

    rearend problem

    My 03 had diff problems. Front Diff had to be rebuilt due to the cluch pack slipping. You could feel it during hard accelerated turns. The rear had to be replaced twice due to the whine. It semed to be right around 10,000 miles. So far the 05 has been good to me.

    2007 Chrome Clad Rims...Outraged!!

    My 05 Limited has the same type of rims. They don't look so bad. PITA to clean. I only use them during the winter months though. My aftermarket rims go on during spring, summer and fall.

    2007 Expedition 20 inch wheel question

    It is a carryover. My 05 Limited has factory 17' rims with the same cheesy plastic insert glued to a factory rim.

    Thinking of trading up to a 2003

    Had an EB 03 for a little over 2 years. POS. I had the rearend REPLACED 3 times (whine) and front Diff (clutch slippage) rebuilt (all had TSB's on them) Then Power window regulators went in the front doors. Front rims were always dirty/dusty from the crappy brake pads Ford used. It was nice...

    2004 - what to expect?

    My 05 has been holding up great. The only problem I have had with it is leaking heater hoses from the back core. Better than my POS 03. Not sure if they fixed the rearend problem in 04 but you might want to keep an ear out for it. You can hear a moan that will change in pitch as you increase...
