    2015 Expedition XLT. Can it actually tow?

    We have a 2017 Expy XLT with the tow package. Our Cherokee Grey Wolf 23MK travel trailer is about 7,700lbs max. I use the Equlizer 10,000/1,000 WDH. On long trips that last two to three weeks I will load up what ever I can over the axles of the trailer. I’ll even fill up the fresh water tank a...

    Towing Stability

    I don’t know the part number. I went on Google and searched 2017 Ford Expedition tow mirrors for my Expy. I believe the brand is Trail Ridge. Some mirror sets cost less and other cost more depending on what function the mirrors are built with. They work pretty darn good. They have a lot more...

    Question on Sway and Tires

    What I did to make my Expy tow very comfortably. I can easily pull 80mph one hand steering comfortably. Obviously extremely windy a days are a bit challenging. I tow with load range E tires. I inflate them to their max 80psi. I want those sidewalls as stiff as they are capable of being. When...

    Towing Stability

    I have a 2017 XLT EL with heavy duty tow package. I’ve been towing our Grey Wolf 23MK for two seasons now. Fully loaded it’s about 7,600lbs. I use an Equalizer WDH 1,000/10,000 model. The first couple of tows were hot garbage. I could feel the OEM tires rolling under them selves on long sweeping...

    2017 fuel tank question.

    I have a 2017 Expedition XLT EL. I’ve had it since 2018. I absolutely love it. Back in March we bought a travel trailer. We’ve taken it on 10 trips. Mostly 2-3 hour drives each way. A few 6-7 hour drives each way and we just got back from the Grand Tetons in Wyoming which I drove for 4 days to...

    Towing mirrors - F150 compatibility

    I don’t think F150 mirrors will fit. The black plastic mounting profile looks different to me. It looks like there are two different mirrors. One set with blind spot warning and one without...

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

    I was thinking about those arm brackets. I was not sure I could move them further back. I just assumed they were optimally out there. I will try moving the brackets back as long as the battery tray between the frame rails doesn’t interfere. I am at 8 washers. Front end feels a tad light. So...

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

    It’s funny you mentioned that. I was thinking of that today while at work. I’m glad someone else thought the same. That is where the dealer set it. I thought it was one hole too low. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tow mirrors, new rims to match the trailer along with 10ply tires and sumo springs. Waiting for a larger rear sway bar to arrive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2017 Expedition tow mirrors

    Hey everyone. I would like to swap out mirrors to tow our new travel trailer. I really don’t want clip on’s or extensions. Would it be safe to assume these would fit even though the website says no. I like that they look factory and retain other mirror functions. Thanks for your time...

    2017 Expedition Heavy Duty Trailer Tow Package

    So please correct me if I am not reading this correctly. According to the chart. A 2017 Expedition EL 4x4 with the heavy duty tow package (both 4 and 7 pin) maxes out at 9,200lbs? Not that I plan on towing a trailer that heavy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Interesting take on auto industry woes/falling new sales

    I’m a used car buyer type of buyer. Buuuuut when my wife finished her dual masters program and at the top of her graduating class. She deserved something new. We went out and bought her a brand new 2014 SHO. We got it for a good price. I was ok with the depreciation loss as we keep our cars for...

    Another dealer rip off story

    Yep. Discount tire is my first and only choice for tires. Good service, friendly and don’t charge anything for a tire repair if the tire was bought through them. I’ve had a few tires repaired free of charge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Replace seized engine or replace truck? NEWBIE NEEDS HALP

    Junk old truck. Pick up the newer one. A motor swap is a big deal. It would be very easy for someone who’s not a mechanic or automotive enthusiast to become discouraged over an engine swap. I’d say buy the new truck. Then if you want. Try fixing the old one to keep or sell. Sent from my...

    Expedition totaled

    Very glad the truck did it’s job on protecting you. Just an FYI. After a drunk driver plowed me head on. I had concussion symptoms for some odd months. So be careful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    JLT Oil Seperator

    Be it hocus-pocus or something that is needed. I ordered new hoses from JLT as I already have a JLT can from my Marauder. It worked on the Merc and the can kept oil vapors off of the intercooler below the supercharger. I also had a prefilter on the intake side. But obviously two different beasts...
