    Sync and Screen died

    Sorry for the delay, but I picked up the Expedition with all the repairs completed. Unfortunately everything on the invoice shows zeros as to cost. They replaced the cat, rear backup camera, rear piñon seal (which dripped once every two weeks, but why not for free) and changed the rear...

    Sync and Screen died

    Cat wasn’t damaged, I just kept getting check engine lights saying there was an issue. I’ll ask when I pick it up later today.

    Sync and Screen died

    20 Platinum with 64,000 mile and the sync system quit recognizing my iPhone and started some overall glitchiness. Eventually the screen would go black, then blue, then the cameras would come on at 60 mph, and radio would lock up. I couldn’t turn it off or change channels but fortunately the...

    MPG Shout out

    2020 Platinum Max with 34,000 miles. We just did a small reunion trip from Edmond, Ok. to Angleton, Tx. 500 miles each way plus site seeing around Galveston, beach driving at Surfside, Tx. and what we called the nostalgia tour of driving around looking at where we grew up. 21.5 mpg with four...

    Rear Window Defrost Connection

    2020 Platinum with 218 miles left on the original warranty. I back out today and the little wire was hanging. Service writer just laughed and said they’d get a window on order. He also said since it happened under warranty not to worry if if happens again later, as it tin their system and will...

    Seafoam Anyone ?

    LOL I think I'll give it a try in my 1929 Model A Roadster pickup. Let's see if I can boost that 40 HP engine a little!

    This means I have to sell it now, right?

    Wait, you can't buy a vowel? Is Vanna White out of a job now?

    Love the Expy, but need a truck

    2020 Platinum Max and I love it. Maybe I’m lucky but a year into it and zero issues. First time in my life I hadn’t owned a truck so I told the wife I needed a used pick to haul lawn crap and what not… and this is the reason I can’t be left unsupervised

    2022 Expy Preview

    My son also picked up his 2021 Lariat today. He ordered it and it's very loaded out. I couldn't agree with the above post more, the larger screen is very, very nice and there's subtle tech upgrades like when your parking and creeping at a low speed the front camera automatically comes on. I...

    Power running board maintenance

    This! My nephew and his two beautiful children live down a mile of gravel road. That dust gets everywhere. I’m constantly having to oil the running boards.

    Transmission Not In Park error

    Well shuckiedarn it all to hell, the damn "not in park" message is back with a vengeance. We leave for Denver-Idaho-Jackson Hole-Yellowstone-Deadwood-Mt. Rushmore-and whatever two headed calf advertisement I see in the Expedition on Friday so I guess it'll go in the shop after the 4th when we...

    Transmission Not In Park error

    Well it quit displaying the message so I'm not taking it to the dealer as it's a little hard to diagnose something that's not happening.

    Transmission Not In Park error

    2020 Platinum Max with 17,500 miles and I'm having the same issue and it started after I read your post, so somehow this is your fault... The remote start works, doors do NOT chime, the message appears in reverse as well as drive, and disappears when driving only to reappear at every...

    Expedition Max vs standard size

    That's an EF5 rated tornado shelter. 1/2 inch steel plate walls and door epoxied and hilti bolted to the slab. I'm getting too damn old to climb down into a shelter and this is easier to roll a beer cooler into to ride out the twisters. Battery powered fans, radio, lights, cell charger, and...
