    2017 used or 2018 new?

    In our 2014, two car seats comfortably fit next to each other (one in the middle) in the 2nd row, allowing the third seat to flip up. We didn't want to have a car seat in the third row, because it's a pain taking them in and out when we need the space in the back for cargo. The 2018s are cool...

    Does Ford 'PreWire' for Options not Selected?

    Wouldn't the "cooling" feature require some sort of duct work? Where does that cooled air come from?

    Purchasing a leased/rental fleet 17 exp Bronze Fire

    I've had corporate leased / fleet cars for the last 12 years. If you don't take it in for scheduled maintenance, you'll hear about it pretty quickly from the fleet management company. They actually make you change the oil sooner than the manufacturer recommends.

    Need some help

    The article is 36 years old, but it states "Federal law allows the agency to fine repair shops $2,500 for each catalytic converter they remove, although it is not a violation to manufacture the kits, nor is it against the law for an owner to install a kit.". Based on the article, it's only a...

    Help build my car wash and wax kit

    I only use Collinite wax. It is, bar none, the absolute best wax ever made in my opinion. The feel and look afterward in incredible. I had my Mercedes coated last year with IGL. That stuff is unbelievable. Watch the videos, it stays silky smooth and nothing sticks to it.

    DVD Stuck won't eject shows disk error

    Probably not going to find one that's plug and play that plays Blu-ray. On some cars if you hold the eject button down for 10+ seconds, it will eject a stuck disk. Not sure if it will work on yours, but worth a shot.

    Dual battery setup?

    2016 with SiriusXM acquiring signal issues

    I had the dreaded "acquiring signal" issue in my Mercedes. I replaced the Sat radio module (plug and play), reactivated it with the new ID #, and it's worked ever since.

    Full synthetic price

    Actually, I think that's pretty good. I usually do it myself, but I paid $90 last time I had Goodyear do it w/ Motorcraft filter. They sell Valvoline (which I didn't want because I didn't want to switch brands - I know, don't get started on that topic ...) and charged a little extra to use...

    Jump starters?

    I bought this one and it's pretty cool. Very small and it has an A/C outlet for laptops and such. They even use an Expedition in their advertisement on QVC. I've only used it twice; once to jump my garden tractor, and once to help a lady with a dead battery in a parking lot. Check for...

    Distracted Driving Close-Calls

    Glad you're OK JEx. What's really scary to me is the number of times I see big-rigs cross the line and then look over to see the driver staring at their phone. Like Andy said, some people don't think the law applies to them...

    JUMPED MY BUDDY'S CAR, NOW A/C IS NOT WORKING

    Shouldn't you connect negative to ground, not to the battery? Still, probably just a coincidence.

    2018 Rear Entertainment Initial Feedback

    I have a similar setup using a Roku mounted under the seat. We use an iPhone as a hotspots and it works really well. As long as your cell phone has a signal, you're good to go.

    UPDATE: 03 Ford Expedition 5.4L won't accelerate

    You mentioned it's been sitting, put some dry gas in the tank.

    Inventory...

    Yes, our dealer finally called to say they just got one in and we could come test drive it. It was sold within ONE hour. Kind of annoying that they couldn't hold it long enough to let us test drive it so we could have ordered one if we liked it. They're missing out on sales by not keeping one...

    Spark Plug Removal

    Here's some pictures of ours from our 2006, removed by our local Ford dealer. Two broke. (about $300 total)

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    Our previous car was a GL450, tons of maintenance and repair. It drove really well...when it wasn't in the shop.

    What did you do to the expy today

    2.80 a gallon, ouch. I real in the WSJ oil may hit $80 a barrel this year, so maybe its not that bad.... Drill baby, drill.

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    That's definitely something to think about. The sales guy said he "thinks" it's made in America. There is a big Nissan plant in TN, but I don't know what they make there.

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    Just curious, why is the Nissan not a choice? I suppose if you're towing a heavy trailer on a regular basis, but I don't see why the Nissan would not be a choice. To compare, the 2018 Expedition has 375 HP and 480lbft torque. The Nissan Armada has 390HP and 394 lb-ft of torque. (Side note, I...

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    Regardless of whether or not they paid everyone back (hint-they didn’t), it’s un-American for a company to take taxpayer funds. This wasn’t something caused by terrorism or war, it was caused by mismanagement, pure and simple. When one company receives government funds over another, it gives...

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    When we bought our first SUV we went with Ford because they didn't take the government bailout. Can't say I'll only ever buy a Ford, but I can say I'll never by a GM.
