    Regular WB vs. EL/MAX for towing

    Sorry, late to respond!! I don’t drive the truck much, it’s my wife’s. 65 is about dead nuts 1500rpm. She is a highway beast, I run in the high 70s pretty often and it just eats up the miles.

    Regular WB vs. EL/MAX for towing

    You comfortable buying one of these rental cars? I'm assuming most of these 3-4 yr old cars with 75-100K miles are all rentals. Me... I beat on rentals lol. I'm not sure that's the used rig I want to buy yet.

    Regular WB vs. EL/MAX for towing

    The trailer came with a EAZ-Lift Recurve R3 setup, and I found a killer deal on a Blue Ox that's sitting in the garage...hopefully one of these do the trick, as much as I'd love a Hensley. I think the space and extra fual capacity will be helpful as well. I guess EL/Max it is. Part of our...

    Regular WB vs. EL/MAX for towing

    Thanks for the feedback. Our current Expy does have the HD Tow Package, but I think it's got 3.31 gears (2wd as well). It's barely turning RPMs at 80 MPH on the highway. I thought about giving the trailer a shot with our current Expy.. I guess if I bought shocks, tires and Sumo Springs, I...

    Actual towing numbers?

    Can anyone show me where this is documented? I know I've seen it in certain manuals and not in others. I sure would appreciate another 150lbs of payload...

    Did anyone purchase the new expedition with X-plan?

    It seems that others can get way below X-plan, so I'm wondering how far a negotiation can go in comparison to say A/Z/D.

    Did anyone purchase the new expedition with X-plan?

    I've got a follow up question on the ford plan pricings... Seems like it's pretty clear that you can get better than X-plan pricing, but what does that mean for the other plans? Is A-plan the best you'll get no matter who you are? Are dealers doing at or around A-plan?

    Newbie needing towing advice

    I'm in a very similar boat as you, but haven't committed to pulling with our Expedition yet, still have a 1-Ton diesel. Not so much advice on weight limits and such other than you'll be flirting with payload and tonque weight, BUT if you decide to tow people have highly suggested the following...

    The World's First CVVD Engine

    Check out "Free Valve Technology" Koenigsegg has youtube videos out there... Basically an air actuated valve train. Which if you think about it is super cool, you can basically program or build any type of cam profile you want with a computer. It's continually variable, and also DRASTICALLY...
