    Any deals yet due to coronavirus?

    Also keep in mind with the COVID-19 shutdown disrupting the supply chain and the tornado taking out the differential supplier - reality is Ford is already having a large reduction of capacity. If there are less units on the market there will be less pressure to discount unless demand heavily...

    Raptor Steering Wheel Install

    No reason for the attack- its a very common modification on the f-150 side and its nice to know its even more plug and play on the Expy side. Your comments are uncalled for and racist

    Whose got the FX4?

    So I have the FX4/Max- have about 5k miles on it. Cant speak to the radiator- its winter and no issues yet on heat loading. Shocks- I do think the ride on the FX4 is a little more stiff than the reg Expy- so thats is a trade off Skid plates- the under carriage is well protected. Plates are...

    2018 Expedition Reviews

    Interesting - I read the review and its highly positive- the drawbacks are doors that are harder to close, and the size of the vehicle when parking. They said it was a leap forward in design, accelerates well, has room for adults in every row, infotainment system works well. As always CR...

    FX4 and LED Headlights

    Just keeping this alive- my fx4 didn't have the LED headlight option and I would like to add. Asked at the dealer and they didnt have any interest in trying to figure it out- it sorta looks like the factory LED headlights may be plug and play - there self contained with all electronics and just...

    Ford, Are you Listening? 2018+ Change/Wish List

    really won't know sales numbers for Expeditions until production catches up- its a brand new design on a retooled line- so typically the line is not at full capacity for 2-4 months. As a buyer in December- all I can tell you on the west coast- pickings were slim. For an Expy max, most dealers...

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    We looked at the Gl550 as well as the 18 Expy max- close in price as I usually purchase pre-owned. I would say I know more people who have the GL/GLS models than any other SUV- GMs second. On the Mercedes owners its a very divided crowd- half love it half hate it. It seems like if you get...

    Second row bench seat

    Went from 2nd row captains on the escalade to bench on the Exp Max. - initially we wanted captains in the max but there were none in our area available and we had to ditch the Slade in a hurry because it was literally falling apart. having said that - were happy with the bench. All of my kids...

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    Actually no- taxpayers lost about 11 billion on the total GM bailout- from Townhall and George Mason University Law School professor Todd Zywicki " In addition to the $2.5 billion taxpayers lost on Ally Financial, they also lost $11.2 billion on the GM bailout and $2.9 billion on the Chrysler...

    '18 Expedition Platinum vs '18 Yukon Denali

    Getting back to the original question for me it was simple - my current Escalade was literally falling apart, and I was going to purchase something ASAP before I ha to spend another 3k on the slade. For my money the only full size ( 3 rows of legit seating and still have room in the back for...

    Diesel Option

    I am probably one of the few that is looking forward to this option. I just had my fusion energy in the body shop- someone mildly rear ended me- the guy at the shop has the fusion w/ the 2.0 ecoboost. He drove my energi and he thought it had more power than his 2 liter turbo four- the reason...

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

    Is this the MAX with the captains chairs in the second row? This was on my list but found a FX4 closer to home- the family decided they could live with a bench seat : )

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

    Who knows how this will work out with the 2018 Expy- but I have a Fusion Energi w/ start stop and have over 130k miles on her with no issue with the start stop feature. Also have a camry hybrid with same feature that I gave to my mom- it has 145k no issues. Granted smaller 4cyl but hopefully...

    Long Term Ride Quality

    I have the 2018max FX4- compared to our old 2009 Escalade ESV with magnetic ride shocks the Expy is light years better. I never thought the Escalade rode well- I even went as far as changing out the 22s for 18 wheels -this helped but not enough. That being said I did compare my 18 max FX4 w/...

    Diesel Option

    total grain of salt here- The manager where I purchased my 2018 Expedition thought the diesel expy might be branded the excursion and said 2020 - who knows

    Test Drive...?

    Agreed- 2010-2018 is a big gap- its juts my point of reference I have driven the new generation escalade as well- had as a loaner when my unit was in for service. I love the V8 feel - its definitely has more personality than the 3.5 eco, but I will say the 3.5 in the 2018 still has more torque...

    Test Drive...?

    This is a tough one - the units I drove were at different dealers so different roads/routes. Drives were two days apart as well. Obviously I now have much more time in the FX4 so it could be I'm just experiencing more situations- but both vehicles have a very nice ride. Limited with the 20"...
