    Looking at purchasing an 03

    That doesn't seem too far off for dealer retail. I would try to talk them down as much as possible though. I just bought an 03 XLT with the 4.6L and 100,000 miles for $7k. I know I had seen others cheaper but it was exactly what I was looking for. When shopping around one thing you have on...

    lets see your rides

    Just got the windows tinted today. Went with 20% on the front and 20% over the factory tint in the back. I also had a Viper 5704 alarm/remote start/keyless entry installed over the weekend. Now on to the toys inside. Victor

    What did you do to the expy today

    I removed the pinstripes and debadged the back hatch. I also had my brother in-law install a Viper 5704/ItemDetail.aspx?ItemCode=5704V keyless entry, remote start and alarm system. My appt. for tint is Monday and I still can't decide how dark to go. Victor

    Your fault Ford warranty coverage?

    I hate to sound like an a$$hole here but why would you continue to use the window after the first sign of a scratch. As soon as I saw something I would remove the moldings or inner door panel and see inside there to see if there is anything that could be causing it. I would have to agree with...

    Please Help - Boat Stranded LOL - P0171 & P0305

    Since the 305 code was the first, I would start there. Eliminate that one and then move on. I believe a bad #5 spark plug is the culprit. I may just be a weekend mechanic but in my experience the first code to pop up can be the culprit causing a few others down the line. Especially when it...

    What did you do to the expy today

    Washed my '03 and drove about 150 miles with the kids to go pick something up for the wife. Then came home and changed the oil and air filter in the old lady's '98.

    Pioneer 4300DVD head unit install 98 expy

    Can you give us the name of this place so we know to stay away? Taking it to an audio shop should yield much better results than that. It looks like he cut the dash with his teeth. Anyone who is worth anything in the car audio industry knows how to use a dremel. I would not be satisfied...

    My 2000 Ford Expedition 4x4 idling rough

    Is your check engine light on? Sounds to me like a bad coil or plug. At 90,000 miles, it may be a good time to just change them all. Victor

    New to me '03

    Just added another Expedition to the family. I traded in my '02 Dodge Ram quad cab for an '03 Expedition XLT. It has 115,000 and is pretty basic. Has power windows, locks, 3rd row seat, tow package, rear air and also includes paint bubbling on the rear hatch. I like it though and got a real...

    What did you do to the expy today

    I had to change the brake light switch. The wife went out to leave and the truck wouldn't move out of gear. After checking around it looked like if the brake lights worked it was the shift interlock solenoid and if they didn't work it was the brake light switch. The lights didn't work so I...

    Which 2nd gen?

    I am looking to sell my '02 Ram and pick up another Expedition. My wife has a '98 and I like it enough I want to get rid of my truck and get another suv. I like the body style of the 2nd gen and don't want the payments of a new one so I have been looking at '03-'06 models. I just had a few...

    Anyone install a cargo area lock switch in their Expy?

    It's so when the last place you were at in the car was the cargo area you can still lock the truck up. Say you get out and shut your door. Go around to the cargo area to retrieve what ever you have back there and then are done. If you don't have keyless remotes, or already put your keys in...

    New Personal Plates!

    Love the plates. It reminds me of how I joke with my wife about us taking the Expedition for its gas mileage. But unfortunately, it is the vehicle with the best that we have. My Dodge Ram gets about 12.5 and my Jeep gets about 12. Compared to that our Expedition is awesome on gas at close to...

    What did you do to the expy today

    I would do tint, paint mirror caps, wheel lights, and stay with the horizontal grille. Here is a pic of my truck with 5% on the front and 5% on top of the factory 20% on the back. It was kinda funny when I got in a wreck in it and the other lady tried to tell the cops that she saw me on the...

    What is the cylinder order on a 98 4.6 Expy

    The firing order is 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8. They are numbered 1-4 front to back on passenger side and 5-8 front to back on drivers side. And it looks like they are one on each coil pack. Victor

    Finally got my Pioneer AVH-3400BH double din receiver installed!

    Looks great. I'm looking to put a double din in my wife's Expedition. Does that have navigation? If so, how is it? Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2

    Dash pad inserts?

    Pick up some tool box drawer liners or the kitchen drawer liners, cut to fit and there you go. Probably a heck of a lot cheaper than a Ford one. You can get them in most any color so you can get pretty close to your interior.

    General Expedition Owners

    I think if you put this type of poll on any automotive forum and it would be dominated by men. Even a Miata or VW Beetle forum. Guys are much more apt to search out a forum to learn more about customizing or just fixing their ride, or they are searching about their spouses ride. There have...

    How many miles is too many for a 99+

    I just bought a 98 with 200k on it and with the service and maintenance records he had I didn't hesitate for the $3000. I just changed the oil on it and the under side is a hell of a lot cleaner than my '02 Ram with half as many miles. It also runs 10x's better. The previous owner of my truck...

    *** $250 diy satin black paint job finnaly done***

    Even with a 9 year old vehicle I just have to say that it takes balls to do something like that. To tackle the job in your driveway and have it turn out so well is astounding. I think it turned out excellent. I really like the murdered out look and am anticipating seeing what else your going...
