    Will a 2007 Factory Navigation fit a 2005?

    I have a buddy with a 2007 factory navigation unit that he would give me if it will fit in my 2005. My 2005 has rear dvd and sub, as does his, but mine doesn't have the navigation. Looking on the internet, it looks like the plugs are all the same, except I know I will have to locate a GPS...

    Door OPEN light stays on

    Where's a cheap place to buy the liftglass switch. Everywhere i look it's $80. The latch and switch is all in one. Hard to backup out of a parking spot in the dark when the dome lights won't go out until you reach 10mph.

    A/C Vents...

    I have a couple of broken A/C vents on my '05 Expedition. Was heading out to the junkyard today to see what they had. Looking online it shows the gen 2 vents for about $40 a piece. Is that the only vents that will fit in the holes? I could probably get a whole set out of a Gen 3, or an F-150...

    Liftglass ajar???

    How do I bypass the door sensor on the back glass? Dome light stays on and it says check rear liftgate. I know it's shut, and I know it's the glass part, I messed around with it before and got it to quit, now it's doing it again. How do I bypass it? I normally don't open it.

    New 05 owner

    I thought about tackling them on mine. I decided to let it be. Has 125,000 miles on it, seems like it has about 50 more horse than a previous '04 f-150 I owned, which also had the noise. After watching a video about what makes the noise, I wasn't near as worried about it. Sounds like if you...

    Headphones for an '05?

    Have an '05 with the factory DVD. Taking it 12 hour trip to Florida end of July. I need a set of wireless headphones for the kiddos, I don't want to listen to 12 hours of movies on this trip that I can't watch. Which wireless headphones work with these? Bought it at a dealership and they...

    Couple of auto climate questions...

    Here's my questions. When I have the climate control on auto, and have it set down low enough for the a/c to run, should my recirculate light next to the a/c light be lit? It lights when I push the button, but if I shut the car off, it has to me pressed again to light up. My 2nd question...

    2005 Expedition, which factory navs. Can be installed?

    Have an '05 Expedition. It has factory rear DVD. No navigation. Is there any stock navigation units that would be plug and play? Which years would work? I know I'll need to install the GPS antenna. Anything else?

    My 2003 Expedition EB rebuilder

    Should be a trim piece on the left side back there, it opens right up. I opened it up to see what was there, and that's what it was.

    Goodbye 2001 expy and hello 2004 navigator.

    Nice. I looked at some navs before I bought my expy. I couldn't pass the deal up on the expy as clean as it was.

    2003-2005 Expedititon or Navigator?

    I was in the same boat. I had a Mountaineer. I went back and forth between the expy and nav. Just so happened I drove past my ford dealer and they had just gotten an '05 in with 121,000 miles on it. I called them up the next day and ended up taking it home that night to try it out. Made a...

    buying advice

    I think that is a good deal on that. They would ask around 10k for one with that mileage around here. What do you drive now? You may take a hit on gas mileage. I get almost 20 on the highway with my 05. I had a mountaineer before, this thing rides great compared to that.

    Road noise

    I think Ford ditched the vacuum lock hubs a few years back. Now they only disconnect at the t case only. So as long as the front wheels turn, all the shafts in the front will too.

    Why do these expeditions seem such a bargin?

    Well, I brought it home today. $8k. Looks like no one has ever sat in the rear seats, that's how clean it is. Has a nice coat of wax on it, almost new Michelin tires and a motorcraft battery, so I'm think the previous owners took good care of it. When I was doing the paperwork, the guy...

    Why do these expeditions seem such a bargin?

    Well, went out to talk to the dealer. We didn't discuss price, he just said the keys are in it, its got 1/4th tank of gas, and I'll see you in the morning. I got it home and crawled in and under and all around it. There's two minor problems. Oil pan was seeping a bit of oil, as is the...

    Why do these expeditions seem such a bargin?

    Well, I found a nice 2005 eddie bauer 4x4 for sale at the local stealership. It looks brand new inside and out. They are asking $8900 for it. It's at 121,000 miles, and it's completely loaded. I think it's a bit on the high side for others I've seen on craigslist with fewer miles. I'm gonna...

    Why do these expeditions seem such a bargin?

    Thanks for the info. I don't tow much. Have a 00 f250 with a 7.3 farm truck for that. You also answered another question I forgot to ask, the wheelbase. Now I know what they compare to, should be able to maneuver good then.

    Why do these expeditions seem such a bargin?

    I've been searching around for a different vehicle. I would like to have something with more room than my '02 mountaineer for my family trips. Been looking at '09+ 4 door F-150's but just don't have the coin to afford one right now. Seen some expo's with around 100k miles on them for dirt...

    What years should I look at?

    Looking at buying a used expy or navigator for an extra vehicle. Looking at years from about 03-07 with around 80kk-130k miles on them. Seeing prices in the $6000-$12000 range. What years should I steer clear of, and which are the better years/models. I farm, so this vehicle will take me on...

    Looking at buying an Expediton or Navigator...

    What are the common issues on these vehicles? Most I'm seeing are over the 100,000 mile mark, but they seem to have a decent pricetag. I'm aware of the spark plug issues, previously had an '04 F-150 with the 5.4 in it. What are the key differences in the drivetrain of the Expedition and...
