Awesome,
Just found this thread - too bad it's not sticky'd in the towing section :)

I was trying to find out this info earlier and no dealer would give me an accurate answer or call back after I had asked the question. I have a class IV and a 7-PIN and a wire harness for a trailer brake. But am not savvy or knowledgeable enough to find the tranny cooler.

Would you be able to run my VIN? Would really appreciate it!

Unfortunately the Expy is at the shop as I just had it blow up on me this weekend and I think it's sounding like the broken fuel injectors that the warranty was extended to cover. Been driving it for two months and wondering if it's toast now :(

Thanks!


A Canadian one.

Based on the red highlighted wording yours did NOT have the "factory" HD tow package. A previous owner may have added the 7 Pin and wiring harness.

Also this comes up:

Lol, why the "A Canadian one"?

Guess this makes it obvious no HD tow package (on top of your red items)
Less Engine Oil Cooler

Oh wow, especially the part on extended warranty coverage on fuel injectors. Is there a way I can find out which ones were already replaced? Other than tracking down old owners?

Thanks - really appreciate it!

Matt can you decode my 2006 Expedition, I was really hoping it had the HD Tow but suspect that it does not. I am about to buy a Holiday Trailer and could use this info. If it dos not have the tow package, I am wondering how and how much it would cost to upgrade to it. 1FMFU20546LA37092
