    FS: Tinted OEM Taillights for Gen 3 Expy

    Purchase 2 years ago from smokedtaillights.com for $200 (with shipping). I have the original box and packing materials, so make me an offer! 476BF85B-0981-430B-9779-78C92EF61ED8 by CyberVinnie posted Jun 17, 2018 at 4:52 PM

    A Dying Breed

    I see your t-birds and raise you... Same color combo, but I t’s not an actual picture of mine, which had tinted windows and removable headlight covers (remember those?). Although I really wanted the Mark VIII of the era.

    A Dying Breed

    Aspen, I’ve never paid more than $51k for a vehicle in my life. As far as MPG expectations go, yes, I was hoping a smaller displacement engine would out perform “the winner, and STILL King of Fuel-inefficiency” 5.9 L Durango I had back in the dotcom days (yes, I’m that old). The Dodge won it by...

    A Dying Breed

    I’ve come to bid farewell to the Expy forum as I just signed the paperwork to sell mine. I don’t regret the three years of ownership (it swallowed everything I shoved into it) although to say the fuel economy was disappointing would rate in the top 5 understatements in history. It’s a slightly...

    Best Anti-Break-in Alarm?

    Thanks Jeff, I actually prefer idiots like you who wear their racism on their sleeve. At least we know to pretty much ignore anything you say! :scum:

    Soon to come 2019 Limited Stealth

    Wait, the wheels and tinted headlights make it stealth? Also, the cool thing about the Stealth Bomber is that it’s Black! And they had the nerve to call the option on my lowly ‘17 the Appearance Package! Now THAT’S Stealth!!

    Liftgate chrome piece replacement

    FYI, the EL on my ‘17 liftgate chrome piece were just stuck on with adhesive. I took them off the same way I debadged the rest of the liftgate.

    2019 Model actual MPG way lower than expected

    You are assuming an inverse relationship between fuel consumed traveling uphill versus what is consumed traveling downhill, and I think there are far too many variables to make that correlation (speed, grade, road, load, accessories, aerodynamics, transmission, etc.). Also, are you suggesting...

    2019 Model actual MPG way lower than expected

    You also have to consider terrain; the hills in western PA kill my MPG regardless of the car I drive. Even my wife's new EV range is impacted by the hills.

    Tinted Tail Lights

    In all honesty, I didn’t want them as dark as they turned out, but I have come to appreciate the look. With LEDs and the third taillight, I’m not too worried about much of an adverse impact on visibility. That said, I hope I don’t have to find out the answer to the question of liability though...

    Your favorite addition or accessory to your expedition?

    Stock, but I bought them at https://www.smokedouttaillights.com/expedition (I still have the originals in case I fail state inspection). I still have the factor bulbs but plan to try led plug-ins.

    Debadging a '17 Expy Tailgate

    Nope, vinyl-wrapped. Same with the Ford emblem.

    Brake Rotors

    i have come to accept that I will inevitably warp the rotors on any Ford vehicle I own, and it’s taken less than 20k miles on my ‘17 Expy EL to prove me right. I also accept that it is likely a result, at least in part, of my driving style as well as my propensity to get my car washed when the...

    Black emblem

    I just used the same vinyl wrap I used on the chrome center strip.

    Adding lane change/blind spot assist to '14 Expedition limited

    Can I rant for a second? Most people adjust their side view mirrors incorrectly; they adjust them so they can see down the side of their car. Most of the area they see in their side view mirrors is viewable in their primary, rear view mirror. Side view mirrors should be adjusted so that you...

    Sexy beach photo

    We were in the National Park portion of Asseteague Island and were required to carry a tow rope, a shovel, and a board in case we got stuck. But in 4WD low and deflated tires, I didn’t have any concern at all. When you stop in the soft stuff, it’s important to first drive forwards and back a...

    Finishing What the ‘17 Appearance Package Started

    Agreed Flex! Any ideas? I bought the smoked tails, but the only smoked third brake light I found is for an F-150. I don’t want to mod the original as PA has state inspections, and I already had to swap the original tails back in in order to pass last month. That’s what I get for going to the...

    Finishing What the ‘17 Appearance Package Started

    I doubt my neighbors and their nine kids consider their five bedroom house a mansion.
