    New Expedition Buyer or Repeat Buyer

    I have an 03 EB and the seats fold flat. Your truck must have been an 02.

    Help me decide what to do

    If the motor and trans are in good shape, I would keep the truck. With what you paid and everything that has been already repaired your ahead of the curve.

    Help me decide what to do

    False. I don't know how you could think that all those parts would only cost $1000 especially since you live in California. They are probably worth $1500 or more.

    i just bought a 2015 X have questions about suspension

    Push down hard on the right rear 2 times and release. The truck should not continue to bounce. If it does you need new shocks. Repeat on the left.

    Please check your front seats!!!

    I have an 03 EB and it has a knob for adjusting the back support. My 13 Navigator is electrical. The more car manufacturers do this the more things that will go wrong.

    Damn 2003!! Here we go again!

    That would piss me off too. I could also think of a few more choice words to use. I hope the used engine is a good one and you don't have any more issues. Good luck.

    Bulletproofing 6R80 Trans

    I believe that running the truck hard, with dead stop sprints on regular basis is hard on your trans and drive train. It will cost you more repairs in the long run. Although it is a lot more fun.

    Mice inside my 2015 Limited EL

    Wow, that's a bummer. I would set one of the no kill traps to avoid the mouse getting stuck somewhere in the truck. I had an issue last year with mice getting in my house and those trays worked well. I baited it with peanut butter and they couldn't resist it. Good luck.

    Fading paint any solutions

    Nothing. I'm also a second generation owner 03 EB. I believe mine is faded from the sun. Thought I would ask the year to see how much sun exposure yours had. I now see it's a 2007. Don't be so defensive.

    Fading paint any solutions

    I did compound and then polished. It still had the uneven appearance. What year is your Expy?

    Fading paint any solutions

    I have a red 03 EB and with the same problem. The hood is the worst. It has a mottled appearance. I tried compounding and waxing but it didn't solve the problem. I think painting is the only way to fix the issue. Our trucks has a tri color paint and it would cost big bucks too paint. I'm...

    2018 Expedition Reviews

    I finally saw my first 2018 Expy at Chili's yesterday. It was a white platinum max and is a really nice truck. The only thing that may be overkill is the 22" wheels. The 20" wheels will ride better and also look very good. Just my opinion.

    prices?

    When you say cash, did you bring in a bank check. I doubt you walked in with 55k in actual dollars. Did you.

    High mileage Expys?

    I would live with the issue for now. Your truck is 17 years old and has 270K miles, other things are going to fail. Using it as an everyday driver putting on 200 miles a week could be a problem. Good Luck.

    Spark Plugs, no more BS

    If you actually end up cutting away some of the body, make a video I'm sure the members would like to see that.

    How long did it take to change the plugs. How much additional time to replace the coils? Thanks

    What did you do to the expy today

    That's a bummer. I don't think I could keep myself from yelling and getting really mad. Good for you. For the record I'm 67. I think the body shop should be able to blend that without a problem. If not they can repaint the bumper.

    New to this Forum

    What year and model is your truck? 30 years that's a long time and still active. Damn. I had a 2 yr army run with a little over a year in Vietnam. I was happy to make it home and got out.

    Spark Plugs, no more BS

    I understand your frustration at trying to change the rear plugs. I had my mechanic change mine because I though the job was too difficult. Quite a few members say they change them without a problem. One said he can change all the plugs and wires in about an hour and a half. I don't how he...
