    FX4 and LED Headlights

    Glad to see you were able to get something installed for a reasonable price. If you don't mind me asking, what was your go/no-go price? Just curious what people would be willing to pay for OEM LED lamp assemblies vs aftermarket HIDs/LEDs in the factory halogen lamp assemblies.

    Struggling with my Decision!

    Get the Expy. You’ll save the 8k now, another 5-10k on stuff that will break after the Navi is out of warranty and then you can laugh out loud when you find out they hold the same value when you’re ready to sell it in 2025.

    Tailgate reopens after it is closed

    Is anyone else having issues with their tailgate opening back up after it closes? We’ve had issues with it happening on our truck since it was new but thought it was due to the door coming into contact with the cargo liner from our 2017 that doesn’t fit properly. When closing the tailgate, it...

    3rd row Mats? All-weather or winter.

    Ford has an installation bulletin for a third row floor mat but my local dealership said the part number is no good or not in their system yet and neither WeatherTech nor HuskyLiners offers anything at this time either. Last week, I spoke with both and they are saying they should have something...

    Rain Sensing Wipers

    Well look at you now Mr. reading the manual! LOL and JK ;-) The rain sensing has always been hit or miss on these vehicles. It can be misting and spot on with when it needs to wipe one day and week later, it can be misting and haze over completely and the wipers don’t show up for work. Never...

    Heads up

    Sorry but I'm calling bull$h!t on that video. I've had to drill enough wheel locks out on various makes and models over the years as a result of not being able to do that with specialized wheel lock removal tools so while there are some will come off rather easily with those tools, you're not...

    Heads up

    There are about 40 different wheel locks so while a thief could carry around a bag with every one and try them all until he found one that matched, most won’t and that’s why they work fairly well as a deterrent.

    The "Auto Stop-Start" is so annoying!!!!

    FYI, once the vehicle thinks it has a trailer connected, it deactivates the blind spot monitoring and rear parking sensors.

    15-17 Heated Steering Wheel?

    What about your power steering and A/C... You think you’d like your Expy sans those “creature comforts”? LOL

    15-17 Heated Steering Wheel?

    Agreed. Some of these new creature comforts are beginning to be like electricity and running water. People used to do without and had no trouble doing so but how the heck they did is beyond me. LOL

    2018+ Post Pictures Thread!- Lets see those shiny new trucks!

    While I agree that black is a horrible color choice for an off-road rig because you can see every scratch and dent from a mile away, I disagree with everything else. If we all only bought what was necessary and nothing purely for our enjoyment, driveways around the country would be littered with...

    The "Auto Stop-Start" is so annoying!!!!

    Stop start can permanently be disable with FORScan. In the BdyCM, change the second digit in block 726-48-02 to x0xx xxxx xxxx and no more annoying stop start. I can do this modification for anyone in the Chicago area.

    Trailer connected... then disconnected... then connected again

    Neither one of us have yet to connect a trailer. I agree with stamp that it probably has to do with the current sensing logic in the trailer brake control module and either a chaffed wire or compromised connector providing a return path for voltage as the disconnected message appears when you...

    2018+ Post Pictures Thread!- Lets see those shiny new trucks!

    It appears that either someone is now making a lift kit for the 18's or the 15-17 kit also works on the new ones as well!

    Very Quick Request of a Fellow Owner

    Do you always see this warning in conjunction with the battery discharge lamp?

    Trailer connected... then disconnected... then connected again

    Is anyone else having issues with their truck in wet weather? Back on the 15th of January, we had light fluffy snow that was turning into slush as soon as it touched the treated pavement and I started seeing the "Trailer Connected" message in the instrument cluster followed by "Trailer...

    Raptor wheels

    You were able to fit the 17s without clearance issues?

    Expedition Limited vs Platinum

    I do wish there was an actual 4H setting for certain driving conditions like muddy fields or when I’m out ice fishing. I’m sure the mud terrain setting probably puts it in 4H but I’d like some visual cue that it is actually in 4H and not just in 4A.

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    If that really is the case, what did the MY15-17 Platinum trim level get you over the Limited besides a leather trimmed instrument cluster cover and chrome strips on the base of the rear windows?

    ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

    Unless you have a Platinum (which would have already had the heated steering wheel button displayed) you’ve only enabled the APIM to send the HSW_On command over CAN but your truck doesn’t have anything else necessary for steering wheel heat.

    RTFM! LOL I’m just kidding but it’s all spelled out pretty straightforward in there.

    Sync3 question

    No manual shifting required. If it’s not showing the gears, press the “+” button and it will start to be displayed. Press it again if you want to stop it from being displayed.

    4th Gen Expy FORScan Modifications

    What did you change in the SCCM?

    Expedition Limited vs Platinum

    The interior is pretty expansive regardless and I didn’t notice a difference between my Limited and the Platinum. Plus, with the panoramic roof shade retracted, there isn’t much to be seen over head.
