    Road trip coming up - preventative project ideas?

    Go back to page three (as of this morning). Near the top is a thread titled "6R80 Transmission Cooler Lines Warning". He did a good job of explaining and there's a couple video links. Made me aware of future stuff. Good luck...

    Front heat not working

    Just a heads up with others reading this thread, my front blower motor quit working on me, but rear was fine so I used that until our winter lull ended and I needed the defroster badly. I started by the book, and Q & A from here. I went to pull the plug at the blower to check for voltage and...

    Need opinions on 2014 and 2015

    I have a 2014 EL LTD with 106K on it now. I bought it in 2019 with 80K, had a 5 year Ford extended warranty, and all is good. Under warranty, I had a few things done, like both front hubs, a couple window motors, and some misc stuff. I pretty much broke even on the extended, but peace of mind...

    Lower Running Boards

    With mine deployed, there's about 6" between the top of the step and the rocker. The step top is about 11" from the ground. Mine is a 2014 EL LTD with stock height. Mine are pretty much fixed as well, never got to them this summer to free them up...

    2010 Expedition Rear AC Line Leak

    When I bought my 2014 EL LTD from a dealer 4.5 years ago, the rear lines were leaking. They fixed it under their used car warranty. This past year, it started leaking again and I lost all A/C...again. I had my wrench nephew cut and cap the lines to the rear and recharge the system. Cost me...

    2013 Expedition XLT

    Your hatch won't close??? I can fit 4 x 8 plywood in my 2014 EL LTD with no trouble, and close the hatch. Maybe your front seats are all the way back?

    Deciding between selling or trading in

    I have a '14 EL LTD, and I would hate to part with it as well. I'm just over 100K and have no plans to sell. I think I would look into a smaller hybrid with gas/electric drivetrain for work, and keep the Expedition for real travel. I'm not comfortable driving those tiny little shitboxes, but...

    2010 Expy Horror Story - Content warning not for the squeamish

    Back in the 60's, my 80+ year old Aunt was visiting us from her home about 1.5 hours away. When she was backing out of our driveway to head home in her '56 Buick, her tie rod fell completely off. Pretty sure she didn't do the service on her Buick. Guess it's been going on for years, eh?

    2010 Expy Horror Story - Content warning not for the squeamish

    Do you have a heated garage? I don't, and I live in salt country too, but I have heard that heated garages let the ice melt and the salt does more damage than leaving stuff outside and frozen. Not a proven theory by me, but kind of makes sense. Yours is worse than I've ever seen. Aren't they...

    Buying a 3rd gen, what year is best?

    I bought my '14 EL LTD 4 years ago with 80,000 miles. It's been good to me, I keep up with oil changes and such as recommended. I bought the extended warranty, mid level from Ford, 4 year/36,000 miles. Each visit cost $100 regardless of how many fixes and I told them next time they see it...

    Going up MT Washington tommorow

    Looks like you caught a beautiful day up there. Glad the trip went well for you. When we came down, they handed us a "This Bike Climbed Mt. Washington" sticker. It was my 50th birthday when we rode up in 2004, so I'm only 10 years behind your Dad...

    Going up MT Washington tommorow

    I've been up Mt. Washington on my Harley Road King and I say just the opposite. Bikers have to watch out for the SUV's whipping around the corners. Not sure if there's still gravel sections. but give the Bikers some room if so. It's a great ride though, and enjoy your trip. We were there in...

    Shocks or Struts

    I just got my Expedition back from the dealer and it's like a new truck. My shocks (struts) were worse than I thought. Anyway, I measured height on all four openings on level ground. Before was 35" on all. After is 36" on all. Now I'm going to check them once in a (great) while...
