    Do all the EB's come with beige interior

    I choose the EB to get the beige interior. Can't handle the depressing sea of grey that is so common these days.

    3.90 gears- anyone try em' ???

    I don't think you'll lose any mileage and if you can install them yourself, do it. Too tall gearing overloads your engine and hurts mileage in all but perfect condition. Try riding a bike in the highest gear, notice how much harder you have to work. The 4.6 isn't a torquey engine but it...

    2015 Road Test

    There's no question about getting a lot of power out of turbo motor or that they are a lot better then turbos of the 80's. However an engine that has a lot of boost is under a lot more stress then one that isn't boosted. There's no way around that. Diesels deal with it by having very heavy...

    Eddie Bauer with no air ride?

    My 2003 EB doesn't have air ride and neither did the other 3 I looked at when I bought it last year. I thought it was a rare option.

    2015 Road Test

    I was just worried about the long term durability of a small V6 running high levels of boost while towing a heavy trailer. All for little or no advantage in fuel economy. But yeah, V8's do sound better.

    2015 Road Test

    Nice engine but I would prefer the 5.0 V8.

    Oxford White Doesn't match?! WTH?!

    Maybe the truck has faded a bit over the last decade or so.

    Yup, another towing question

    The problem with the 4.6 isn't power it's torque. If you check the specs you'll see the 4.6 and 5.4 have the same bore. The difference is entirely stroke and that's what gives you low end torque. The 4.6 is much better in the mustang. It's just not a tow engine.

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    2013 Jayco JayFeather X213. About 4400 lbs empty, no problem for the Expedition. Edit and I have no idea why it's upside down.

    Changing Coil packs

    I had two coils changed at the dealer and they "stress tested " the other six. The random stumbling continued, no codes. Took the advice of the forum and a neighbour Ford fan and replaced the remaining 6 with aftermarket name brand coils. Problem solved.

    ignition coil's??

    My local Ford dealer wanted $110 per coil so I bought Delphi from Rock Auto for $35. I agree with the above comment. Skip the super cheap no name brands but any name brand should be fine.

    03 Eddie Bauer here!

    How do you take out deer with a truck?

    ignition coil's??

    Mine are Delphi which are also black. Seem to work fine.

    Anyone on corn

    My truck isn't flex fuel but it doesn't matter as I have never seen a station that sells it. Not sure if it's available in Canada. On the plus side I've heard the first corn on the cob of the season is available the weekend.

    Small utility trailer towing

    If the bumper is designed for light towing you should be fine. I towed a utility trailer for years with a step bumper like that on a mini pickup. Given the age of your truck I would closely inspect the bumper where it is mounted to the truck frame though. My mounts rusted out after a decade.

    Fuel mileage

    Can only dream of filling mine for $90. At $1.53/ litre I put $140 in mine last week. Cost 80 buck to fill my Taurus yesterday.

    anyway to turn off the interior light when door is open ?

    Turn the dimmer by the head light switch all the way down. That's what I have to do every time my truck thinks a door is a jar even if it isn't.

    Fuel mileage

    I go around 600 km on a tank with a 5.4.

    is 5.4l v3 consider quiet engine ?

    If I could pick and choose my engine would have the bottom end torque of the Ford, top end of the Hemi and sound like the Chevy.

    is 5.4l v3 consider quiet engine ?

    I would describe my 5.4 as too quiet. I wish it had more V8 sound to it like the Dodge and Chevy I test drove before I bought it.

    2008 EL XLT shuddering/sputtering

    My coils lasted 10 years and 100,000 miles. I think they should last longer but I've heard that's normal. Ford wanted $110 per coil but Rock Auto has them way cheaper. I paid $35 CDN each.

    Cold air intake

    While it may be possible their numbers are correct that's only a 3-4 % increase on a 300 HP engine. Most people won't notice the difference. Might sound better though.

    What did you do to the expy today

    Took my truck though emissions testing today and it passed. The best part is it's the last time I have to do it as they are ending the AirCare program at the end of this year. Yay.

    what price did you pay for your expy?

    Paid $8500 CDN a year ago for my 2003 Eddie Bauer Expedition. Around 95k miles when I bought it, one owner no rust.

    Yep. Got an unloved but reliable 98 Taurus.
