    What’s with the common misconception on foreign cars?

    Yeah, I've been in both, and I'm looking at the photos you've posted, and I still disagree with you. Far more higher end, soft touch materials, leather and higher quality wood trim in the RR. The interior quality is one of the biggest turn-offs for my wife, and I really can't argue the point...

    What’s with the common misconception on foreign cars?

    First time I have ever heard the acres of plastic dash/door panels, etc in an expedition described as leaps and bounds ahead of a Range Rover interior. Interior quality is always high on the list of complaints of auto journalist in every review I have read or watched about the Expedition...

    Rear Park Aid question (‘07)

    Is it just me, or does that seems like a very weird spot to locate it, essentially behind the second row seats, when the Driver is the one that needs to hear it..

    Is Ford Doing Anything About Their Paint Issues?

    Denying it mostly.. Surprised there hasn't been a class action suit filed by now..

    Trade truck for Expedition?

    I don’t see where that was a lengthy reply, but okay.. Given that you come across as though your opinion is fact, I believe the forum members deserve to see an explanation or test data that supports it. If you are stating things that are incorrect as fact, then ‘disproving you’ is actually...

    Bench vs. Captains Seats

    I guess we will have to agree to disagree on this one, I think the middle seat being in place is a HUGE improvement on cargo security vs no seat at all, or packing longer items across the gap.. And it seems to me that a full row rear seat is about the industry standard for cargo security in...

    2015 Expedition, aftermarket stereo installation

    Could help but notice the Expedition missing from the list of applications on their website. Doesn't really look like the F150 would be an exact fit to me, is it? Seems like the '15-17 owners really only have the Factory options, since Ford integrated so much of the rest of the dash functions...

    Dashcam suggestions

    I like the high end BlackVue and ThinkWare multi channel Systems, but I haven't installed anything yet, and don't have any personal experience. This site sells them of course, but also has alot of good information.. https://www.blackboxmycar.com/

    Bench vs. Captains Seats

    My daughter really likes the rear 'captain's chairs'. And I admit that my wife has a point that it makes passenger egress to the third row much easier. But I'm not so sure overall. Am I the only one that has concerns about securing cargo with the large hole between the seats? What happens...

    Trade truck for Expedition?

    When you say simple, I'm assuming you are talking about size/weight, but an F150 Supercrew is larger, and similar in weight. This would be an example of simple physics and why you want to be in the larger heavier vehicle in a collision between the two.. But design and safety features of the...

    2015 platinum or 2017 xlt

    Given similar mileage and maintenance, I'd go with the 2017 XLT with the 202a. I see from the windows sticker it pretty optioned up, including 20" wheels, so I'd go for the '17 XLT. Thee are always things that are updated year-to-year, some small, some not so small, but the '17 is the 'best'...

    Not happy with 17 syspension

    While I agree that 45 psi is probably over-inflated for the loads, I doubt it would cause the sensations described by the OP. I'm with dlCorbett, time to replace the shocks. 50K is about the service limit for factory shocks, whether they are leaking or not, and the 'pogo test' is not always an...

    3V 5.4 performance build - What's a good shop?

    a '15-'17 with the Ecoboost is going to look and feel pretty close to what she has.. I Googled 600 HP Triton 5.4, looks like a lot of work, and quite pricey just to get the engine where you want, then the Transmission, and the inevitable stumbling blocks.. Then you have to figure what else is...

    Steel bumpers for 1st&2nd Gen from WAM Bumpers

    Wonder if the Vivid Racing F150 Bumper would fit, looks nice as well..

    Anyone here has access to the Ford window stickers?

    I've noticed Expeditions listed for sale with Ford Dealerships almost always have an Original Window sticker Image/PDf with the Ad. Makes me think any dealer can look them up and print them off..

    Leveling Kit and Suspension Upgrade

    It appears that the same Ready Lift spacer lift Kit for the 3rd Gen trucks fits the 2nd gen as well. 33-34" tires are probably doable without too much issue, but I suspect you will need to watch the width and wheel offset, like the third gens. The Rear IFS is a different design in the 3rd...

    No GPS symbol

    SYNC is in a lot of vehicles (obviously), and a quick google Search turns up a lot of results.. These posts from the F150 Forum maybe helpful? Couple of Posts from that thread.. "SSM 45917 - 2016-2017 Ford/Lincoln - SYNC 3 – Inaccurate Global Positioning System (GPS) Tracking Or GPS Vehicle...

    Sync 3 with apple car play

    Pretty sure that is just Microsoft Sync (so version 1 I'd guess). There is an upgrade path to the later versions, but it requires hardware as well as software, and the price is REALLY Steep...

    Owners of 2015-2017 Models - is yours reliable?

    I think all of the 4wd '15-'17 EL's had LSD rears, and 3.73 gears, No?

    Sideways jump?

    Could be worn bushings, or just severely out of alignment. Often times extreme toe (particularly in the rear) can cause that behavior as the suspension unloads, or bad bushings can cause the toe to become extreme as the suspension cycles, either way, leading to similar behavior... If one side...

    Renting a 2018 Limited - Thoughts from a 2016 Owner

    Its really too bad Ford did not give the '17 Expedition the updated engine and transmission in 2017, as they did the F150, that would have made it a stand out year for sure. But I'm sure they were 'saving it' for the 'All NEW' Expedition. Gotta protect sales at all costs..

    Owners of 2015-2017 Models - is yours reliable?

    It seems like most of the new generation 'technicians' don't have the first clue what to do if the computer (no codes, sorry) can't tell them what to replace..

    Owners of 2015-2017 Models - is yours reliable?

    I'd agree, seems like the current issues are directly related to (incompetently performed) service work. Maybe time to try a different dealer, or an independent shop once you are out of warranty. Its sad, but the level of knowledge, service and even laziness varies greatly between shops. If...

    Worried about Ecoboost longevity? Heres a 2.7L EB F-150 w/200,000 miles
