CCD = continuously controlled damping
Quote: Expedition offers Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD). A suite of electronic sensors continuously monitors 46 unique motions. The damping system responds in milliseconds to help keep you confidently in control. Choose from three settings – Comfort, Normal or Sport – for the performance feel you prefer. CCD is standard on Expedition Platinum and optional on Limited.
dlcorbett: thanks for the info! I'm not totally ready to give up on the Expy yet until I drive the Platinum. And I'll start a thread for ride quality. edit: I see you did it, thanks!
We had a QX that I like the ride very much, although spouse disagreed and said it was too floaty. I liked this truck alot but ended up selling it because we had to drive 2 hours for service and that became too much of a hassle.
We got into a Grand Cherokee, but that ended up being too small for me.
Tried to move onto a Tahoe, but backed out at the last minute due to the buffeting issues which we experienced on a short test drive.
Ended up with a 2015 Sequoia which was to be a temporary vehicle. 3 years later, we still have it but continue to look for a large SUV with the ride, drivability and features we want. I still hoping it's an Expy!
edit: one of the things I DO like about the Sequoia is the adjustable suspension. I use it quite a bit. It drives small and I consider it to be very easy to park around town. It's missing too many convenience features for us including keyless entry, push button start, a decent sound system, heated steering wheel, updated navigation, rain sensing windshield wipers etc. The QX had the 360 deg birdseye view camera which was fantastic and I'm eager to have that feature again.
