    Just ordered my 2023 Expedition Limited

    Mine is gonna be black. My wife was lobbying for a lighter color and it was originally ordered in blue, but with all the black trim this just looks better to me in black, and it is going to be my car. The dealer made the change to the order for me, and I will just have to explain it must have...

    Just ordered my 2023 Expedition Limited

    I tried that. Spend months looking at the Ford site for one, never found one within 500 miles of me (July/Aug/Sept) with the configuration I wanted that was not sold before it arrived. We will see how 2023 goes. When they start arriving in the dealer lots perhaps there will be one for me.

    Just ordered my 2023 Expedition Limited

    Not sure what has happened since, but I ordered mine 9/16, and got an email a week or two ago telling me it is scheduled for production the week of November 28. Not sure that will happen, or if all the parts will be there, but I am hopeful. Limited with SPP, HD tow, CCD, eLSD, Sync 4A.

    Just ordered my 2023 Expedition Limited

    Did you get the email from Ford confirming the order? Mine beat me to the house when I ordered mine.

    Timberline vs Z71 Tahoe 6.2

    For all those people who think the Expy is overpriced…. That one is a real bargain! I will stick with the SPP that I have on order. The number of times I expect to need more HP will not be worth the additional $70k plus markup.

    Catalytic or cat lock DIY?

    My son had his cat stolen several years ago, he lived in an apartment the city and had a beater car to go grocery shopping. Came down one Saturday morning and had a new custom sound. Personally I would like to put a motion sensor under the car and hook it up to an air horn under the hood...

    2025 ford expedition redesign

    The technology exists... 12 V cooling in small packages. Just have to repackage it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M1PM7H6

    2022 King Ranch Max Available

    That has actually been a required option at times. It seems Ford has not had the ICs needed to allow that feature in stock all the time.

    What Have You Done to Your 4th Gen This Week?

    Just reading this entire thread as my 2023 is on order… Have you noticed any corrosion on the aluminum panel with the stainless hardware? Those two materials cause some issues. https://www.marshfasteners.com/can-stainless-steel-and-aluminum-be-used-together/

    Any families gone from Supercrew pick up to Expedition?

    You do know that the tongue weight of the trailer counts as cargo weight, right? So a 7900 pound trailer with 10% tongue weight (790 pounds) takes that 790 off your 1400 pounds of cargo capacity and leaves you 610 pounds of cargo capacity. Two people and 3 dogs can easily exceed that with...

    2023 Expedition

    I suspect that these changes are to align groups of similar vehicles within the same week. I also ordered a SPP and it is scheduled for the week of Nov 28. It would make sense to have the same drivetrain on all of the vehicles being run together. Let’s see if these continue changing or if they...

    2023 Expedition

    It might come sooner than you think. I ordered mine a month ago, like jrk341 above I just got today an email from Ford saying that is is scheduled for production the week of November 28, 2022. Limited SPP. So there is a chance it gets here this year!

    Help! CAT Scale Weights Not Adding Up

    If you have not figured it out yet, the vehicle weight 6680 pounds, the total of your last weights. After adding the trailer, you add the two axles (3080 plus 4360, giving 7440) and then subtract that 6680 leaving 760 pounds tongue weight.

    New 2022 SPP Expy cabin is LOUD

    In my experience when a vehicle gets louder after that many miles it is a tire issue. I have had several vehicles that changing the tires made a huge difference in sound level.

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    I am really not sure what to think about that local dealer. They are the only Ford dealer in a fairly large city, so they have a pretty good location. But I see a fair amount of cars around with the sticker logo on the back from the dealer I ordered my replacement order from, which is about 35...

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    Your comment just gnawed at me…. And yes, the order has been changed to black. It really looks nice, especially with that chrome belt line strip covered up. Now I have to figure out how to tell my wife…. But luckily I probably have a few (many?) weeks to figure that out. Hopefully by spring...

    2023 Expedition

    For anyone waiting (like me) for the 2023 appearance updates so finally see what your new car will look like sometime when it gets to you, Ford has now said they will will reveal the 2023 Expedition Tuesday at the Detroit Auto Show. I am now expecting some changes since they are making a bit of...

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    It is the one you suggested I run away from, yes. And I will be stopping by to arrange for a refund next week. I am not sure why the dealers in South Carolina are reluctant to honor that x-plan deal, especially on an $80,000 sale. I could understand on a $20k car. But the overall cut of that...

    Ford production-Reality check

    You are probably at least partially correct, but there are some things a vehicle in this class can do that very few other vehicles can accomplish - hauling your choice of 7 people or a 9000 pound trailer (although not at the same time unless most of the people are very small) and comfortably...

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    I have posted a couple of other comments about my adventure trying to order a 2023 with the x-plan. Emailed the dealer 2 days ago telling them I wanted to see the Ford order confirmation, and got no response. So I found another dealer that would honor the x-plan pricing, stopped by and got the...

    Ford.com is now letting you build and price a 2023 Expedition. I do not see any changes in available options from 2022.

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    Thanks for all the discussion. We just recently moved (800 miles, different state) and it was really expensive to bring a car into South Carolina so we sold one of them rather than paying the $800-$900 it would have cost to register it here on top of $750 to ship it. So we are suffering with...

    Ford to unveil 2023 Expedition next week

    I just saw this site, I have not seen it on here yet - please let me know if I am duplicating information. I am looking forward to the release of this! https://naias.com/news/ford-to-unveil-new-expedition-at-motor-bella

    2022 Expedition - Schedule for production ?

    I ordered a ‘23 a couple of weeks ago, dealer wrote it up but said the pricing was not available so he used the ‘22 prices and asked me for a deposit to guarantee that price. I also have an x-plan number, but now I suspect that pricing will be based on the ‘23 invoice and may actually be higher...
