    Coolant consumption

    My 2019 Expedition now has about 72,000 mi on it. I'm 7,000 mi into an 8000 mi road trip and it's used a gallon and a half of coolant. There's not a trace of coolant in the oil. There's not a trace of steam in the exhaust. There's absolutely no smell of coolant in the interior or under the hood...

    2019 4*4 Stealth shifting weirdness

    I'm on an extended road trip in Mexico, towing a 4500 lb small fiberglass camp trailer. A bunch of times, when the truck is in tow/haul mode, and I give it some gas to pass someone basically nothing happens. It doesn't rev. Doesn't rev. It doesn't shift it.

    row of red LEDs on dash in front of driver

    When I start my 2019 Limited, a row of red LEDs on the top of the dash light up and are reflected off the windshield, and stay on for several seconds. Anyone have any idea what this is about ?

    Tailgate lock

    a week or two ago, my tailgate no longer auto unlocks if I have the dongle on me. I can manually unlock it with the dongle, or by touching a side door handle to unlock the car, but the buttons to open the tailgate as well as the tailgate window do nothing if the vehicle is locked. I've been...

    disabling a Expedition's lighting

    any way to disable flashing the parking lights when you open a door at night? one of my occasional hobbies is amateur astronomy. I generally use the tailgate of my vehicle as a 'desk' for my eyepieces and other equipment. There's typically a dozen or so of us, all setup behind our cars, on...

    Tail light Guards ?

    anyone know of any offroad style tail light guards for a gen 4 ? I've discovered my trailer can contact the tail lights in a sharp U turn, and I've read those LED tail lights are like $1500+ to replace, so some corner protection would be smart.

    I will need a GMRS 2-way radio in my Expedition next year for an extended caravan... I've been advised that the handheld FRS/GMRS 'talkabout' stuff doesn't have adequate range... The GMRS radio I got, a Midland MXT115, has a magnetic antenna.... Oooops! The Expedition has an aluminum...

    tire pressure for 18" wheels?

    My Expedition has the $#$#@ 22" wheels, which I'm going to swap for 18's so I can have some sidewall for my occasional offroad adventures as well as urban potholes, etc. Can someone with 18's on a gen 4 take a picture of their tire rating sticker on the A pillar and post it?
