    Extended warranty, waste of money or worth it, 2017?

    We have 33000 miles on our 2017 limited EL. Bought in Sept 2017. From my understanding we have to 36000 miles or Sept to buy an extended warranty. When we were buying the dealer pushed hard to buy their warranty which wasn't a Ford factory, so after market, we said no. Most of what I have read...

    2017 Buying Question

    Don't hold me too this but I thought the load leveling suspension had to installed at the plant. Therefore if it does not say load leveling than it does not have it. Last year they were selling off the 17s for sweet prices because of the 18 redesign, I would haggle on the price. 18s you gotta...

    How much better is the 18 vs 17.

    I know the brake controller/hd tow package was standard on the 17 platinum we got...How big is the gas tank on the 18?

    How much better is the 18 vs 17.

    The only negative is the price and it looks like you got to pay for the tow package now.

    How much better is the 18 vs 17.

    Sounds like the 18 is real nice, gonna wait a few now for bugs to work out. Somebody asked why we would want 2..answer..hockey and skiiing I hope the newer models come down a little in price. Question for 2018 owners would you have a bought a new 2017 platinum EL for 50k (plus the tax etc)...

    How much better is the 18 vs 17.

    We bought a 17 Platinum EL in September and got a very good deal (big rebate plus employee dicsount). We knew about the changes but what sealed the deal was the ridiculous high trade we got. We love it, what a great ride, nice standard tow package too. We get 17 mpg. So comparing the 3rd gen to...
