    Fancy!

    I don't have it in front of me, but I have the engine temperature as one of my widgets on the Expedition dashboard. I've not see any issue with engine temperature. Maybe if I were going across the Rockies.

    Fancy!

    Camper is 5700lb dry. We got about 8.5mpg on the trip to Michigan. That's about normal. A bit lower than I would like, but that's what you get with a 3.5 engine and dual turbos. Larger engine and diesel would get about 10-12pmg or so. Be sure you check tongue weight. I was over a few...

    Fancy!

    I have a 2020XLT with max towing. This vehicle has been great .. no problems, no issues, mileage is exactly as stated. I pull at 5700lb camper with zero issues. I have had two back surgeries, and I have problem with some vehicles due to the seats - but not the Expy. I have 33000 miles, and...

    Engine drops hard putting in to drive

    I have a 2020 Expedition. I've found that if I hope in, start it and shift, it's always a bit rough. If I wait just 15-20 seconds, it is generally a smooth start from parking into drive. Who knows why

    Trailer Blind Spot - Yet again

    OK gang .. 2020 Ford Expedition with max towing. I bought a new trailer, setup it up, and blind spot feature worked great last year. Took it out this spring, and now I get the dreaded no trailer notification, and no blindspot. It worked fine, then it did not. Seems I can't fix without...

    Hancock tires

    I have a 2020 Expedition with the heavy duty tow package. 17,000 miles. Just go it inspected and they said that they ores are heavily worn. They are the Hankook tires. I tow a 5700lb rv trailer 5-7 times a year and occasionally a long trip. I do any off road driving. I check air before each...

    2500 mile trip

    Just finished 2500 miles towing a 4,000lb trailer. Pulled great. No real problems towing. 11.4mpg average. Some hills. I switched between premium and regular. Only issue I had was a recurring fault message on left rv light. Good news, the trailer light check system worked and proved to me it...

    Towing and 10 speed transmission

    I'd put this in the towing forum, but I want to focus on 2018+ and 10 speed transmission. I have a 2020 XLT with max towing package. My current trailer is 3700lb. unloaded. New trailer ordered is 5700lb unloaded. The older trailer pulls very easily. I typically just switch to the tow...

    OK one more time - blindspot and RV

    Well I think I found the problem. I believe that if you set up the trailer BEFORE you connect it for the first time, it does not ask to setup BLIS. Instructions say you can do that, and finish setup later. I deleted the trailer and then connected as part of setup. I got the request to...

    OK one more time - blindspot and RV

    Yes, I've done that, deleted and did it again. I have two stored trailers (same trailer, different names) and length. I'm getting a new trailer (on order) and will delete everything and start over - if it ever comes, delays in production I've heard.

    OK one more time - blindspot and RV

    Ok folks .... I've read other posts on this. When I hook up my trailer I get a message that blind spot and cross traffic are disabled (FYI 2020 Expedition XLT with 202a package). Since then, I have tried in settings to enable blind spot (FYI it works fine when no trailer is hooked up). It...

    E3 1000lb hitch

    I just bought a 5700lb trailer Rockwood 2511s mini lite. On order. I have a 2020 Expedition with the max tow package Has anyone used the E3 1000lb hitch? The dealer wants to sell me that model. I want a new hitch with the trailer. Seems there is a shortage of Equalizer hitches

    After a few trips with 2020 Expedition ...

    Did about 300 miles to Maryland this weekend. 3/4 tank high octane and 1/4 tank low. Averaged about 11.9. Better. Not many hills thought. I also pulled in 4 wheel drive.

    After a few trips with 2020 Expedition ...

    I saw a slight jump to 10.5 when I filled a half tank of regular with high octane. I’ll try a full tank of high octane next weekend. Heading to Ducksneck in Maryland. Hopefully better mileage.

    After a few trips with 2020 Expedition ...

    Hi folks. After a few trips pulling my 3700lb trailer (with ease) I do have some observations, and would like feedback. FYI 2020 XLT with tow package. 4W or 2W - Do you use the 4A mode when pulling or two wheel drive. Mine seems to sometimes default to 4 wheel, sometimes not. I was driving...
