MPG tricks that work?
Our 2015 Expedition EL Limited 4WD Ecoboost was getting over 20MPG recently, the highest reading I got on the Lie-O-Meter was 23MPG after about 100 miles on cruise. All highway with little traffic and on cruise control at 70MPH. Finished the trip (last leg was getting home in town, with lights...- sarge816

Garage Door Opener
Nice truck, ours is also 4x4 Limited EL, the only one I could find in Texas fully loaded with tow package, rear suspension adjust and white metallic. I followed the directions in the manual, which is the same way I've been programming our other vehicles for years. This one does not program, so...- sarge816

Garage Door Opener
I have a 2015 EL just purchased and it absolutely refuses to program. I've scoured the forums and find all sorts of issues with programming the built-in 3 button garage door opener but nothing specific to my issues. I have a Genie Series II which works great and the external remote I have...- sarge816

"Don't try to replace spark plugs!" 2008 Why not?
Thanks for the feedback. Owner's Manual has 100k service as the first time these plugs should be changed on this year truck, was just wondering how far someone has pushed them with no real issues. Currently getting 19-20mpg hwy mileage @ 70mph cruise, no rough idle or missing or anything else...- sarge816

"Don't try to replace spark plugs!" 2008 Why not?
Ok, late to thread but I have an 05 EB that has 108k and never changed spark plugs. It's my wife's folks truck that we purchase about 3 yrs ago, we have all maintenance records. Thing runs like a top, no rough idle or issues. I took it in for 100k service at non-dealer and they said if it...- sarge816

05 Expedition Stock Radio & Auxiliary Question
Wife wanted to stream pandora in our 05 EB with the same radio / dvd setup as yours. I looked at all the options and the easiest was a bluetooth to FM adapter using her smartphone: Amazon.com : Incredisonic IFM-500 Bluetooth FM Transmitter Basically, it links to your phone with bluetooth and...- sarge816

Who has Children as an Expedition Owner
This is exactly what we did. We have 3 kids, one tween a toddler and an infant. We wanted the babies in captains chairs second row and wanted the oldest to be able to get to the third row through the center. Removing the middle 2nd row seat (I think the seat is 40/20/40) works perfectly. We...- sarge816

gas mileage
11MPG definitely seems low for highway but if you are only driving 2 miles stop and go it is probably about right. We have an 05 Expedition 5.4l which is the 24v engine obviously, but we get 19-20MPG highway (70MPH on cruise) but only 12MPG city.- sarge816

Which do you prefer for 2nd Row? : 40/20/40 or buckets?
No pics yet, but here are the mats I used: 03 06 Ford Expedition Lincoln Navigator Floor Mats | eBay The seller shipped quickly and the mats fit PERFECTLY. They are made for the truck with the captains chairs on the second row and look OEM. Covered the holes in the carpet from taking the...- sarge816

I would keep the buckets personally, but that is because of my own reasons - I like easy access to the third row. If you are really expecting more kids it may be worth it to keep it as is. I had the exact same interior as you on my 05 EB, but we needed the third row with arrival of our third...- sarge816
