    2008 Ford Expedition Limited 2WD - Hard Shifting occasionally

    don't mean to thread jack but i have a similar issue in my 05. it has the 5.4l and is an xlt. when i give it a little throttle it kicks pretty hard and then shifts. when i give it a lot of throttle it doesn't do it and it doesn't do it at all with the overdrive turned off. any thoughts?

    What year is your expedition?

    picked up my new to me 2005 xlt this week. didn't know if i liked it at first, its the wife's ride, but it is growing on me really quick after driving so much this week. beats the hell out of the windstar, but i still like driving my Ram :D
