    Wattage max?

    2024 manual didn't have those details.

    Wattage max?

    I assume you are talking about the 110/120 VAC outlets. It's odd that Ford doesn't give a rating in the manual. There's a photo that implies that the wattage is indicated on the outlet cover, though I've never looked at mine. All the manual says is: I don't think I'd use those outlets for...

    Smaller Wheels for Softer Ride

    It's been awhile since I've handled any wheel spacers. I've seen some that are made of soft metal (aluminum, zinc, etc.) and aren't hardened. That means they will compress slightly when the lug nuts are tightened. The compression will happen slowly. The lug nuts may torque just fine when you...

    Interesting Review Video

    More weight. More weight. More weight. Ford's design looks like an elegant solution to maintain strength in the rear of the frame (possibly for crash protection, possibly for towing capacity) while keeping the weight down. What Ford has done may be unusual to some, but I don't think it's...

    Add-on Keyless Entry Keypad - "Not for Police Vehicles"

    If this this stick-on keypad is wireless, and it is, then having the proper wiring connections is not a factor. The description of this device says "Requires Dealer Installation to allow programming via Service Tool (FDRS)". That tells me that there may be something in the configuration of the...

    What kind of deals is everyone getting on leftover 2024s?

    According to the letter mailed to owners, "The remedy is anticipated to be available third quarter of 2025." According to the recall report on file with NHTSA, as of July 18, 2025, Ford's Field Review Committee approved an amendment to the recall "to include additional vehicles with defective...

    To go with 18” or 20” wheels on 23 Limited Max

    I've heard varying reports about how much you have to cut off. Looks like the un-threaded pilot is about 1/4" to 3/8". Don't know if just cutting off the pilot is enough or not.

    To go with 18” or 20” wheels on 23 Limited Max

    On light duty solid rear axles, such as those used on a 1/2 ton truck, you have a flange with studs that is used to attach the brake disk and road wheel plus a rod that goes into the differential housing and splines into the differential. The flange and the rod are forged as one piece. There's...

    '25 Owners...Thoughts and Impressions

    Are there voice commands for the seat heating/cooling? Every time I reach for the HVAC temperature adjustment on my 2024 with the 15.5" display, I remind myself "There's a voice command for that." I'll break my old habits eventually. ;)

    Keep 25 order or wait for 26

    You know the 2026 Expedition will have device holders? Ford said those would be available in the 2025 model year. They even released a TV commercial for the 2025s showing the device holders...but with small print at the bottom of the image saying they won't actually be available on 2025s. At...

    Over active running boards

    On my 2024 Limited, the running boards retract automatically when the vehicle speed reaches 3 mph. Note, this works in Reverse, too.

    New owner with questions

    1. I have the same feeling with my 2024 Limited with CCD. Yes, Sport mode helps a little. There's lots of talk on here about improving the ride of the late 4th gens. The general consensus seems to be replace the 22" wheels with 20s or even 18s. Don't know if that will impact the problem you...

    Storing Second Set of Wheels + Tires

    Sunlight is hard on the rubber compounds used in tires. Keep them covered if stored outside. Ozone is also hard on the rubber compounds used in tires. Keep them away from large motors or other electrical devices that might generate ozone.

    Letter to My Dealer

    There's a third thing driving the cost of automobiles: 3) Ever-increasing government mandates for "safety features". Of the 5 recalls listed by NHTSA for the 2024 Ford Expedition, one is for the (Federally-mandated) rearview camera and another is for a missing (Federally-mandated) dashboard air...

    Power running board stuck

    On my 2024, I can extend the running boards manually, but they automatically retract at speeds over 3 mph in forward or reverse.

    Expedition for Western Colorado

    I think a lift would be the last on my list of options. A lift will raise your vehicle's center of gravity and make it more difficult for the suspension to control the vehicle over rough roads. Start with changing the tires and wheels. Go to an 18" wheel with the standard size tire (275/65R18)...

    License Plate Bulbs…

    It's usually not the LEDs that go bad, it's often the electronic circuit being used to drive the LED. LEDs generally don't want to see much more than 5 volts and they generally need limiters to keep them from drawing too much current. Your automobile provides anywhere from 12 to 15 volts DC...

    Ham radio mounting options

    NMO is superior to the UHF mount. NMO was designed for mobile use and is water tight when installed properly. The UHF mounts on the Japanese antennas may work OK, but I would not use them if NMO was an option.

    Smaller Wheels for Softer Ride

    My 2024 Limited has CCD, factory 22s, and General Grabber tires. The thing that I don't understand is that when I go over a stretch of rough pavement, like a beat-up bridge apron (INDOT can't seem to hire contractors who can build bridge aprons properly), the front handles it just fine, but the...
