    Readylift 3/2 - highway ride, mileage

    Thinking of doing the Readylift 3/2 on my 2021 max fx4. Would probably upsize tires a little too. Will be doing some mild offroading. But does the lift affect highway ride quality or gas mileage much?

    Sand driving - manual says 'avoid reducing tire pressures'

    Yeah... The manual seems like bad advice. Or at least, it should specify "packed sand" or whatever.

    Sand driving - manual says 'avoid reducing tire pressures'

    OBX is where I will be doing some sand driving (haven't yet). Been watching some videos, and yeah, everyone says 15-20psi, if not lower.

    Sand driving - manual says 'avoid reducing tire pressures'

    Yeah, I get that, but was also wondering if Ford is maybe worried about overheating the elsd (I've seen a few threads on that happening) - not sure if low tire pressures would even cause more stress on the diff, though...just a thought

    Sand driving - manual says 'avoid reducing tire pressures'

    Everyone who routinely drives in deep sand says it's critical to reduce tire pressures significantly to reliably not get stuck. But the manual on my 2021 FX4 says "When driving over sand...avoid reducing the tire pressures but shift to a lower gear and drive steadily through the terrain". Why...

    2022 Expy announced

    Re the screen - it's nice in Teslas (I have a Model 3). But I like the physical buttons in my 2021 Expy. In the Tesla, since *everything* is via the screen, it makes more sense and the OS is well done - few taps to do most things. Expedition just feels like it wants physical buttons. Different...

    Lift, tire, wheel combo

    I'm picking up a new 2021 MAX FX4 soon. I intend to be on the beach with this every so often, but also plenty of normal city/highway combo driving. Planning on doing the readylift 3/2 and bigger tires (I look the lifted look, plus it'll help on the beach). I think I'm settled on the Falken...

    2022 Expy Preview

    I think they look great lifted (with proportional tires). Gonna put the readylift 3/2 on my new 2021 when I pick it up soon. Cool that the 2022 Timberline is a bit lifted stock.

    Thanks, that's helpful. FWIW, this thread is also helpful: https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/recommendation-for-some-beach-tires.47251/

    Does Anybody Here Worry About Rust?

    Thinking about getting this done. How's it holding up after a year? Any issues?

    What wheels and tires for sand?

    I have a 2021 XLT Max FX4 on order. Picking it up soon (I hope). I plan on doing a good bit of driving on the beach, including deep soft stuff for miles. I'll probably do the readylift 3/2. Obviously I'll air down a lot (15-20psi) for the sand driving, but what's my best option for tires? I...
