    Reliability

    I have a '21 Limited 4WD w/HD Towing and 81K, 41K of that pulling a 7200# travel trailer. It's been to all but 7 NE states and to 26 National Parks with tons of mountain passes and summits. That being said, I have had zero issues with the engine or the 10R80 (did have a seeping front diff...

    2021 Platinum. 39k Miles. Leaky Shock. ESP Denied

    I have a '21 Limited with CCD shocks. Same thing but I had a LH front leaking at 30K. I took it in and it was covered with the 3yr 36K standard warranty. I too have been cautious in buying a $74K Ford and opted for the Platinium ESP coverage (bought it from Flood Ford). Knock on wood, I haven't...

    Cost to do trans filter service?

    I moved the cooler, dropped the pan, replaced the filter and refilled it (on my lift) in less than 2 hrs. Watch Makuloco ford tech video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p96a8_MPwyM&t=2330s&pp=ygUgbWFrdWxvY28gZm9yZCB0ZWNoIDEwcjgwIGZpbHRlciA%3D

    Safety Recall 25S47 - Certain 2022-2024 Expedition/Navigator - Front Brake Line Leak - Inspection, Documentation + Reporting of Substandard Condition

However, I also just received another emissions related recall relative to a inaccurate display message appearing stating a defective catalytic converter. Since I'm over an hr...

    2024 Expedition Max Limited - Negotiated Deal Good or Bad?

    I think your doing well with this deal. I'd pull the trigger. There is value in getting a deal done efficiently vs traveling to many stores and seeing the underbelly of the industry to save a few bucks...

    Towing observation

    I have a '21 Limited 4x4 w/HD tow pkg and pull a 7200# travel trailer. The 3.5L motor is absolutely amazing. It's power exceeds my expectations and I've owned several muscle cars over the years. The unbelievable torque the motor has when getting up to speed is awesome. I always keep it in the...

    Michelin cross climates and towing an Rv

    I forgot to add that I replaced the stock rear sway bar with a Hellwig and added rear Sumo spring helpers prior to the trip as well.

    Michelin cross climates and towing an Rv

    Ironically, yes. I just returned from a 55 day, 7010 mile trip towing my 2024 Rockwood 2516s with my '21 Limited from Colorado to the east coast and back. I replaced my Hankook's (56,000 miles) with Michelin Cross Climates just prior to the trip. The cross climates have a more robust...

    Blind Spot Monitoring suddenly not available when towing

    I have a 2021 Limited 4wd and I have pulled a trailer with it for 31,000 of it's 56,000 miles and my last 7000 trip my BSM gave me the exact message as Bruce P's. I too deleted the trailer and reentered the length and width to no avail. Help.

    TWO YEAR REVIEW

    I have 2021 Limited and just turned 56k w/26k towing a 6000# TT. It's been rock solid and we too love it.

    Extended warranty……?

    I have a 2021 Limited and like you, from reading this forum I too went ahead and secured a 7yr 150,000 Platinum warranty from Flood Ford for $2300 before I exhausted my 3yr factory warranty. This was my first new Ford purchase ever and my first extended warranty on anything I've ever bought...

    Has anyone had a smooth shifting 10 speed? Do they all do the occasional clunk?

    I have a '21 Limited bought new with 55K on the clock and 26K of that towing a 6000# travel trailer. I have experienced clunking twice since purchased, both times during a downshift (don't know the gear) slowing from a highway speed. My biggest complaint is when it sits outside below 30 degrees...

    suspension upgrade with a 7000 GVW travel trailer

    Thanks for all the advice! In discussion with Fastway trailers, the manufacturer of the Fastway e2 1200 WDH that they recommended for my 2516s, I re-measured all aspects of the trailer and expy on a totally flat concrete surface. Bottom line is that the standard shank that Fastway ships with...

    suspension upgrade with a 7000 GVW travel trailer

    My expy has 1605 payload but it was not loaded as much as typical...may 60% of my normal for a long trip. I am thinking of carrying only one of the two 30# LP tanks which would save me 55#. Also, we loaded the trailer with only 45% of the items by weight we pulled from our last trailer (Lance)...

    suspension upgrade with a 7000 GVW travel trailer

    I went to a Cat scale and my payload is at 88.1%, front axle is at 89.5% and the rear axle at 93.2% of their respective ratings. The trailer was at 86.2% of max rating. I weighed the tongue and it was at 950 lbs. I always tow in tow mode. It tows great except for some buffeting when semis pass...

    suspension upgrade with a 7000 GVW travel trailer

    I have a '21 Limited w/HD Tow, CCD, 22" wheels, 285 Cross Climates, 1200 e2 WDH. I'm wondering how to reduce porpoising when pulling my Rockwood 2516. Should i add sumo springs to both front and rear? Does a sway bar change have a larger effect? What are the suppliers of the suspension...

    Towing a Rockwood 2516s

    I'm looking at moving from my Lance 1985 to a Rockwood 2516s. The Rockwood has a dry hitch weight of 781#. Add the batteries, propane and my 12,000 e2 WDH and it will be over 1100#. The Ford towing guide shows for my 2021 HD tow a 9300# towing capacity and 930# max hitch weight. The Rockwood is...

    Travel trailer overall length with '21 Limited

    Thanks for your comments! I used a 10,000 Fastway E2 WD hitch towing my Lance and I will add a new WD hitch sized to my new rig as well. My Expy has 49K on it and 26,240 of that was towing the Lance. I have HD Towing Pkg. w/22" wheels. With my Lance, I weighed it twice at Cat scales and dialed...

    Travel trailer overall length with '21 Limited

    I'm looking to upgrade my current Lance 1985 TT (23'8") with a longer 28'10" TT. The Lance had a GVWR of 6000# and the new TT has a GVWR of 7000# but is 5 feet longer. Any concerns pulling a 29' trailer with a non-Max Expo?

    Towing Advice Needed

    I've been towing my Lance 1985 with my 2021 Limited w/HD tow pkg w/WDH for over 22,000 miles. I focus on the 1605 payload number vs my 9200 tow limit . My Lance's GVWR is 5800 and usually tow it near the limit (6010# was max from 2 Cat scales). However, when you add tongue weight, passengers and...

    Possible to Add Active Park Assist? (Ford deleted it)

    Ditto! Terribly inconsistent to the point that I don't even try to use it anymore.

    Slim pickins for Labor Day :-(

    I bought a '21 Limited non max and have used it to tow my Lance 1985 for 20K+ miles. It tows great but I too wish I bought the Max mainly for the extra interior space. If it fits in your garage space, go Max.

    Adaptive cruise without lane centering?

    I agree 100%. I have a '21 Limited and the centering correction makes for a uncomfortable ride. I think it's worse for the passengers as the driver gets is more cognizant of the correction. My passengers have complained and at times they think I'm falling asleep at the wheel! I use it only if...

    If You Could Do it Over, Would You Buy It?

    I bought a 2021 limited new last November. Have 37K on it with 21K of that towing a 6000 lb travel trailer. Other than the recall for the battery box fire issue and a LH front leaky shock (CCD) it's been bulletproof. It was my first new Ford product ever purchased and I have to say I'm impressed...

    Expedition means low quality

    I own a '21 Limited with HD towing, 22" rims, CCD and have 33K (17,500 towing a 6K trailer) since our purchase in Nov. '21. I've had a leaking LH front shock, the battery junction box recall both covered under warranty and (3) misaligned LH/RH doors which I fixed. Other than these issues, our...
