    Pulls hard right when towing

    My daughter's 2019 Expedition Max XLT. HD Trailer Tow. She has owned it for over 6 months and it has been wonderful. Today was the fist time they hitched it up to their travel trailer, 28' Jayco. Her old Expedition (2014 ?) towed the trailer to FL and back to MI and on numerous other trips...

    Nivomat rear struts

    What is the downside, other than cost ? Were they eliminated from the 4th gen just to save a few bucks ?

    What is your opinion of ActiveX seating material ?

    I have not seen it in person, but it sounds like some type of "synthetic" leather (vinyl). How does it look ? How does it feel ? Early yet but, how does it wear ?

    So what is the difference between ...

    ... "cooled seats" on the 2017MY Expedition and "ventilated seats" on the 2018MY Expedition ? I am not happy that the 40/20/40 bench seat is ONLY available of the XL model and I not happy with the fact that leather seating surfaces are required just to get adjustable pedals. (XLT 201A) Grrrr !!

    REAL oil pressure gauge

    Has anyone bothered to install a REAL oil pressure gauge seeing as the one on the dash really just gives you a "warm feeling" (like a baby after it has pooped its diapers) ?

    Keyless Entry/Door Locks/Alarm goes crazy

    Daughter's 2012 Expedition. Just started a couple of weeks ago. Not always, but randomly the alarm will go off (vehicle in few view so no one is messing with it). Door locks will cycle, sometimes repeatedly, even when driving. I had this happen on a old E150 and I had to replace the Keyless...

    Payload and GCWR with HD Tow Option on a Max (EL)

    Payload is passengers + load + tongue weight of towed vehicle. This on the door sticker. Payload is NOT listed in the towing guide ! (2017 EL payload was about 1400. Tongue weight of a large trailer is 600-800 lbs so there is not much left for passengers and gear !)

    New big V8 coming (?) Will it be available in the Expedition ?

    The rumor mill is buzzing again, about a new big V8 coming to finally replace the V10 still used in medium duty trucks. Likely it will be a big brother to the 6.2L "Boss" that has been in production in 2010. Very little specific info has leaked out. It will be bigger, but how big ? Likely...

    2012 front wiper linkage bushing

    The linkage fell off of the passenger side wiper. I put it back on, but it fell off again. Ford only sells the motor and linkage as a one piece assembly which is $$$ ! Dorman makes a replacement linkage, but Dorman does not have the best reputation as a replacement supplier. Any other ideas ?
