    2012 Expedition question

    sorry for delay, here are pics... first one is the ice block, build-up. It actually surrounds the driveshaft, and freezes the shifter linkage. So when you try to put car into park, it wont go. Nor will it go into nuetral, or much of anything... [/IMG] 2nd pic is the little piece of...

    2012 Expedition question

    It's actually a problem for anyone who lives in the upper 1/2 of the US, or cold, snowy areas. In fact, Ford is so aware of the problem, there's a TSB explaining how to fix, and they've even come out w/a dedicated part to prevent the snow and ice from building up there. It happened to me this...

    The 2013 Expedition...No new changes.

    Eddiemoney, thanks for the reply... But I'm actually looking to see if anyone has part number and/or has actually done the retrofit? My aftermarket unit (can't recall brand right now, it was pricey, all digital, pretty cool) is too long to fit in there. I think when I first got the truck I DID...

    The 2013 Expedition...No new changes.

    anybody find out anything more about adding the electronic brake control? I'd love to get rid of my aftermarket hanging from the bottom of dash. Funny thing is, I was trying to figure out a way to custom cut that panel and mount my controller there!

    Flex Fuel Emblem

    I took everything off the back... and yes, you need to have holes filled. Although I think it looks much better! http://www.expeditionforum.com/album.php?albumid=311 Sorry, on a different laptop, easier to just post link to my album, ha..

    differences between 2010-12

    very, very small addition, but certainly helpful to some people... the '11 added a 120v type two-prong outlet (like a home outlet) in the back of the center counsel, in addition to the 12v cigarette lighter plug. Good for laptops, or other chargers for small electronics.

    Nav startup delay

    my wife's car does same thing, and it's not a ford... I think they're just cycling through the boot up process, as you well know, they're basically mini computers in these things... the best option is to slow down in the morning, take time to sip your coffee, smell the flowers and let the back...

    Center console for Capt Chairs

    hey fly, your profile doesn't say what color your interior is, but I have rear center counsel that came out of an F-150 Harley edition, so I was told. It's black leather on the top, and it was refinished with black interior spray paint by the guy I bought it from, but looks really decent. I...

    Hid Projector Retrofit in 2011 Expedition Completed

    I agree with with dariod, it does seem a shame that we can't get as at least an option... my car stickered at $56k, and not even an option for decent lighting, ridiculous. When you can get on other Ford products ala Edge's and Focus' these days. I just think the Expedition is really, really...

    Fluttering Sunroof

    sunroof's do nothing other than help the resale of a car... I have roofs in both of my cars and never touch them. The fluttering, popping, banging noises they make while driving down the road are unbearable. Windows cracked, opened, closed, nothing helps. Occasionally I'll open it at night...

    Ideas for a new Grille

    here's my creative engineering to black out my handles (without spending hardly anything, and easily reversible)... black vinyl overlay. I don't have a close up pic of them, but it's literally just a black sticker, yes. And obviously, I did myself.. I can get a pic if you want.

    Ideas for a new Grille

    and I'm not exactly sure what this plasti-dip is they're refering to, but my opinion with tuxedo black is you'd probably want to paint match, not a gloss or matte black...

    Ideas for a new Grille

    You guys both have the good fortune of having 2011's, exactly what Ford was thinking by going to the chrome grill, I just don't get. Especially when over the years everyone just knew the Limited's were ALL body color (and bad-a** looking, I might add)... Mine is a '10, which was the last year...

    some new pics '10 Expy Limited

    It's a '10, the grill was still body colored on the Limited for that year, they cahnged it to chrome in '11, I prefer the all black look, so I'm happy it's like that. I do have black billet inserts that you can't really see that well in those pics, maybe that's what you're asking about...

    some new pics '10 Expy Limited

    Very observant... the exhaust on my brand new truck came out the back rear side as they all do. However, mine appeared to be bent up (almost as if someone hit something). So I actually had the pipe removed from just above the axle and replaced by the rear tailpipe from a Navigator. I just...

    Leather seats falling apart

    Mine is a '10 as well, and I have noticed my leather looking a little rough, but nowhere near as bad as your sounds... That's ridiculous that Ford is giving you any grief at all!! If I'm reading that correctly, you are still well w/in the parameters of your 3/36 bumper to bumper to warranty...

    Orange light smashed off my wing mirror

    this should get you close... I actually had this same turn signal part busted off my '05 two different times by a car wash! After it happened a 2nd time, obviously I never went back. Easy part to replace, I did it twice. Oddly, they don't list the item number, but if you order from them, you...

    Stump the Chump (new member)

    let me guess, it's black? Almost certain it was used in a livery service capacity... although, if in fact, a limo there is alot to be said for that, you know all of the maintenance has been done... altho probably worn out back seats, lol

    screen size for 2nd row

    and for what it's worth, the factory flip-down is too big/poor design to begin with... when my kids are watching TV, I just know to use my sides. I can't see sh*t with it down. And it's what, like a 7in? I wish I had headrest TV's so bad...

    some new pics '10 Expy Limited

    man o man, you guys are all comedians around here, huh? :tongue: lol... even though we don't have a ton of snow on the ground, they put down as much salt as we get snow around here. The spot I think you are referring to is actually a water drip that had salt in it!! And that was just driving...
