    HELP!!! Wireless headphones

    There is a button you push on the controls from the back seat. I don't even know which one because I touch it by feel when driving. Wait a second, let me go look....OK...there is a headphone symbol/speaker symbol next to it. Push it. I think the speakers go mute and head phones go on. The...

    Many problems on 2003

    I had each one of these problems + more with my 03. We traded for an 05. The 05 has been really good. You have to expect this when you buy a 1st year vehicle. It is a LAW in the design cycle that it takes a year or two to debug a vehicle after it is in service. This is true with any...

    '05 running like crap

    9K miles. It sounds like a freak deal. Defective check ball. You wouldn't expect that part to fail unless it was cracked during fabrication. I must say other than this, this truck has behaved so far. We had far more problems with the '03. My only complaint is that I wish it had more...

    '05 running like crap

    They called and said it was mis firing on #3. Now they are saying its the Transmission. They said it was shifting 1,2,3,4 immediately. Sounds like they don't have a clue. Comforting. Why does this always happen to my vehicles when I bring them to dealer service? I will look for TSB...

    '05 running like crap

    My 05 is falling on it's face at low speeds. Running poorly, no power (Less than the usual no power) We have it at the dealer. The service monkey's are doing the part replacement shuffle trying to figure out what it is. First the throttle pos sensor, now the throttle body. Anyone have this...

    2006 changes?

    They are not making the Excursion for '06. So, they will have to have a diesel and extended option...IMO. Ford can't go a year without a giant SUV. People will switch over to Suburbans.

    Expedition VS Armada

    Yep, I was just getting used to the looks to where I thought I could buy one. I really wanted to get the Armada too because of my experience with Nissan in the past. I have had 3 Maximas. Those cars run forever problem free and don't complain when you beat 'em. It would be nice to have...

    Expedition VS Armada

    Did anyone look into the Armada before deciding to purchase the Expedition? What was your determining factors?

    outside temperature

    Buy a Nissan Armada. Theirs come calibrated from the factory requiring no user intervention. Something that Ford should look at.

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    I think the a-arms have more surface area and therefore tries to anchor the vehcile. The differential pumpkin can drag thru the sand a ways before it really anchors you. I pulled the same trailer in the sand with the Suburban before we bought the Ford. Suburban would dig and spin and wheel...

    Has any of u checked out the new '05??

    I picked up an '05 EB. The new engine and trans is a big improvement. It now has "adequate" get up and go. Transmission feels like a CV. It feels like a different vehicle from the '03 I traded. Better ride and steering, better carpet, driver/pass climate control, better instruments.... to...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    I concur with your book....mostly. However, I did not like the performance of my truck on the washboard. The steering wheel danced around like a little school girl at tap dance class. My 03 had obnoxious rattleing doors. The 05 is OK there. A steering shock would solve this problem...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    I think you sum it up when you say the vehicle needs to be configured to your off roading needs. So the question is, is the expedition a good platform to start with? I would say, for trail riding, it would be a great platform. For rocky, or deep mudding not so sure. It may be expensive...

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    That's the soulution! My girl friend and her two office mates can wear them too! I will have to put the power seat all the way down to the floor for head room. ....One if these days I need to wake up back to reality.

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    That's a good point. I am always worried that those guys are going to make things worse. But, how do you know unless you try? Do your doors rattle on your 03? Mine didn't til it hit about 20K miles.

    The beer foams up because the doors rattle.

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    rwinch, What steering shock are you using? I am getting tired of spilled beer on my legs and seats. And, my topless dancer girlfreind screams when that cold beer hits her nipples. (She likes to sit on the console, so I can't use the drink holders.)

    Is my 98 Expy better offroad than a 2004 Expy?

    We are talking about if the 03 and up Expy is better off road than the previous generation. The 03 and up is the best SUV in it's class no doubt, I appreciate it. I am on my second one. But, Ford did not design it for offroad. This is readly apparent and dissapointing despite their...
