    Hypermiling the 3.5.

    That's a lot. Most I get is probably around 16 on the highway. Normally, in traffic, I get about 11 :D

    Ole Girl

    That's a nice looking first gen. How many miles? I've been looking for a first gen to replace mine (It's a bit too big for where I've been driving) but it's been hard to find one with less than 150,000 miles.

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    How many RPM were you up to when going uphill? MPG? That's a mighty big trailer.

    Garage Door Opener Power

    Like Andy said, it might just be because you haven't opened the door yet. Try turning the Expedition off and after opening the door, try using the garage door opener. Then, if the opener isn't working properly, it shouldn't open the garage doors.

    Rusted roof

    Your cupholders were full of water? How long had it been sitting out in the salty and humid air? You might have mold on the interior depending on how long that water was in there and if water went elsewhere.

    Sagging rear - suspension or new hitch

    I just took a look at the owner's manual, and it says to place the heaviest items over the trailer axles when towing. Could placing most of the weight in the front of the trailer result in the sagging rear of the Expedition? Also, JExpedition07, I took a look at the maximum GCWR's - gross...

    2012 expey INTERIOR COURTESY MAP LIGHT

    Where'd you get the LEDs? Are they generic or made specifically for the Expedition? Thinking of doing an interior LED conversion in mine.

    4-18s audio build

    Where was that first picture taken? They looked like speakers in the sunroof at first glance

    2000 EB to 2017 eco boost - hesitant

    Unrelated, but have you owned your 2000 since new? My mom briefly had a 98 before crashing it in 2003, after which she got one of the Ford vans. The Ecoboost engines are also quite reliable. There is some skepticism surrounding the turbocharged engines with smaller displacement, though I...

    trouble getting out of "P"

    Was it physically hard to move the shifter down the column to D? Or was it an issue of being able to shift it fine, but the Expedition wouldn't become unparked?

    Gas mileage ?

    Yeah but 2000 technology is very different from 2018 technology. Plus, there is also the turbochargers to factor in, and the fact that there is better gas mileage tech that didn't exist so long ago. Still, I prefer my V8. :)

    What to look for when buying a gen3 expy

    Damn, don't you ever drive? My 2013 has around 130k. She hasn't had a problem yet.

    New Expedition Owner

    Welcome to the Expedition community, they're great trucks. Was the Camaro a manual transmission? Also, I recommend you do oil changes at 3000-4000 mile intervals. Ford says that their engines can last longer than the traditional 3000 mile interval, but in order to keep mine running strong I...

    4-18s audio build

    That's awesome. How are you planning on looking behind you when you're driving? Are you going to just rely on the side mirrors? Are they going to be the kind of speakers that have extremely heavy bass, extremely clear audio, or both? I like the custom gain-mob things. Post updates when you make...

    Heated/Cooled seats

    How much did it cost to buy the replacement wires? Are they specific or just generic wires?
