    2019 Ford Expedition Platinum Tachometer Display

    It shows what gear the 10 speed transmission is in. If it ever disappears, press the + button beneath the rotary shift dial and it will reappear.

    Tow package for extra 4x4 worth it?

    Another way to think about it is that not too many people with the HD Tow package regret having the additional capability/feature content. Not sure the opposite is true though.

    Will changing from 22 to 18 wheels reduce a lot of road vibration?

    I have a Limited 302A that came with the 22’s and I switched to the 20’s from the Limited to improve the ride and avoid issues with bent wheels due to potholes. The 20’s combined with CCD rides very nicely, so I’m pleased with the switch.

    Pricing in NJ on a Limited Max

    If sales tax is lower in the state where the vehicle was purchased, any difference in sales tax would be recouped by the DMV when the vehicle is registered in the buyer's home state.

    Lubricate grease fittings?

    Pretty sure there are no timing belts on the 3.5 EB. It uses timing chains.

    2020 King Ranch

    I wish Ford would offer touch up paint for the accent colored parts like the bronze accents on the King Ranch. They don't even offer the silver color that's the accent color on the normal Expeditions. Are they that naive to think that rocks discriminate by paint color?

    Black ford center caps

    Center caps are not all the same size, but you should be able to order a set of black center caps that fit the Stealth Package on the Expedition. I ordered a set of black center caps from my dealer for an OEM set of 20" wheels that I had coated with PVD black chrome for my snow tires. Center...

    Hands free lift gate closing by itself

    This is a common issue, and many (myself included) have disconnected the antenna under the rear bumper to avoid inadvertent actuation. I was tired of getting hit in the back of the head while unloading cargo, and also was concerned it may open into my closed garage door and cause damage to the...

    Potential Wind Noise fix

    I've been experiencing wind noise from what seems like the driver's door B pillar area. I've done all the normal door adjustments, etc but I still wasn't satisfied with the wind noise while driving on the highway. The noise was especially pronounced when cross winds were blowing towards the...

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

    Very cool. You'll have to see if there's an OEM way to add towing mirrors to the 2019 like you have on your older Expy. I'm sure lots of people would be interested in that mod!

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

    I like the chrome "Expedition" letters. Are those from Ford or an aftermarket seller? I've only seen the black "Expedition" letters in the past on the Stealth models.

    2020 Expy Build-and-Price is live on Ford.com

    Tesla has the "Smart Summon" feature where the vehicle drives from a nearby parking spot to the curb where the driver is standing with their phone. I'd be surprised if Lincoln is at that point yet since I haven't seen anything as advanced as Tesla's AutoPilot as of yet with Lincoln vehicles.

    2019 platinum max nitrogen filled tires?

    I also hate it when they fill my tires with nitrogen without telling me and replace my normal black valve stem caps with those stupid green ones!

    Grinding noise during startup

    Have you made a warranty claim regarding the noise? If mine ever starts, I'll be going to the dealer to get it resolved under warranty.

    Grinding noise during startup

    While he didn't get the terminology correct, the main point of the video is that his new ride sat in the shop for over 50 days and he lemon-lawed it. Obviously a disappointing experience I'm sure.

    Mid-engine?

    And they're fun to do donuts in reverse at full steering wheel lock! :)

    Gorilla Glass for F-150, Fingers Crossed for Expy Too

    Pretty amazing to still have the original windshield after 189,000 miles! We have so many triaxles in my area hauling limestone that it’s only a matter of time before a rock flies up.

    Road Trip OBX

    Very cool video. We were at the OBX back in July this year. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore also has a lot of beach that is accessible by vehicles. Did you end up airing down? I aired down to 20 psi and everything went well for us.

    King Ranch

    Fortunately the computer is smart enough to avoid accidental engagement of low range since you first have to be stopped and in neutral before it will allow engagement of low range.

    King Ranch

    And Low Range. That's the primary reason I got the HD towing package was to get low range and the locking rear diff. We don't do much towing.

    Severe air vibration when front windows open

    I wonder if removing the rear power operated vent windows has anything to do with all the issues Ford had with exhaust fumes entering the cabin on the Explorer? Maybe they didn't want to risk an issue.

    Piece of junk

    I choose not to engage in a battle of wits with someone who is obviously unarmed. Have a nice day.

    Piece of junk

    Not your bro there big boy. As a mechanical engineer, I’m familiar with the design process. Glad you get your jolly’s from belittling others on the forum. The OP was concerned about quality issues with his new 75k Expedition. I have also experienced quality issues with my 4th Gen Expy and feel...

    If this isn't a reference to poor quality, forgive my ignorance. You obviously are the self proclaimed expert.

    Agreed that the supply chain is truly global nowadays!
