    Thoughts on performance chips?

    I think they advertise the high HP with 93 octane, and the low with 87 octane. Maybe not the high output version on the Timberline, but perhaps the Platinum vs. XLT, for example.

    Thoughts on performance chips?

    This is a great use case for tuning. Sport mode is fine, except once I'm at the desired speed, it takes several seconds for the car to decide to get into the cruising gear from the acceleration gear.

    '25 Owners...Thoughts and Impressions

    Have any of you done anything about the mismatched paint colors on the liftgate? Other than those of you that bought a black Expedition… I'm on my fifth Expedition since my first 1998 model, and I'm looking to level up from the 2022 as my upcoming retirement vehicle, but I can't get over the...

    Over active running boards

    Is that built into FORscan now? It's been about three years since I've played with FORscan, and most of the stuff for the 2022's wasn't mapped yet. I'm VERY interested in making this change.

    Any decent Dealerships in South East Michigan?

    Blackwell hasn't disappointed me.

    Max or non-Max?

    I had a 1998, and there was no Max. Then a 2004, again, no Max. And a 2010 Max, except this was in Mexico where a large vehicle kind of sucked (and it was called Max there instead of LT or whatever we had here a couple of years). Then a 2019 non-Max. I've finally settled on my 2022 Max. When I...

    Over active running boards

    My '22 Platinum has both sides operate together. There's also no "delay" setting unless it's something that's been added recently, or is included in a software update I've not gotten yet. And the 2022 modules are in so much disarray, I don't even think there's a know FORScan solution. I...

    Forscan on MacBook Pro running Windows Bootcamp or Parallels?

    Well, no, but those don't have Bootcamp. The OP specifically is asking about Bootcamp, so obviously he's got an Intel.

    Forscan on MacBook Pro running Windows Bootcamp or Parallels?

    Bootcamp, because then your computer is a real Windows PC. I've never gotten the hardware to work from macOS with Fusion or WINE.

    2025 ford expedition redesign

    Looks like the lineup is going to be XL, Active, King Ranch, Platinum, and Tremor, then?

    Platinum trim level?

    For 2020, I would have gotten a limited. In fact, I ordered a 2021 Limited, then when the 2022 was announced, ordered a 2022 Platinum and let the dealer keep the 2021. I only upgraded to get BlueCruise, which was only made available in the Platinum and only starting in 2022. To me, without...

    Expedition as Long Trip Road Vehicle

    Oh, I'd _love_ to hear more. Do you keep an online travel blog or anything of the sort? I've been all over Mexico in late model Expeditions as well as other vehicles (never with a trailer, though), and I've got to say, every vehicle provides a different experience at the state borders, and with...

    Who has ever owned every generation of the Expedition? Or at least several generations

    I had a 1998, a 2004, a 2011, a 2019, and now have a 2022, some of them concurrently. For example, I kept the 2004 until replacing it with the 2022, and plan to keep the 2022 for long haul. It'll probably be my last Expedition simply due to my age, unless a compelling BEV option becomes...

    Hybrids Confirmed

    I'd take an Expedition energi. I'd appreciate a bit more than 25 miles of electric range, though. If it's as fast as my Mach E, that would be almost criminal. Something that big shouldn't be so fast! But I hope it will be. As I get closer to retirement, it would be nice to get closer to having...

    Steering Vibration 2022 Ford Expedition Max SPP

    I'm not optimistic, and, get this: I work for Ford. Yup. I've had it up to 85, and it's just perfect now. Michelins have always been my replacement tire choice, just not at 10,000 miles. Yup. The same crappy tires everyone else has that's giving them problems, too.
