    Ways to add MPG in a $$$ Gas Price Economy!

    Great ideas! It's just about time to replace the not-so-great original Hankooks, so I will probably get the spark plugs mentioned here at the same time - thank you! I average 19-19.5 street driving, but that's almost always in Eco and coasting as much as possible in my hilly area (which...

    What Have You Done to Your 4th Gen This Week?

    Finally replaced the sad 4" screen with an 8" touch version. 100% improvement; should have done it right away.

    Sunshade Noise

    Yikes. No. Nothing like that at all. Hope the dealership has a quick/easy answer for you.

    Totally getting one 2021 Bronco

    This was in 2018, and we went to the largest dealership in the state after visiting two local dealerships who couldn't place the order based on their allotment. The problem was with Ford itself; the dealership was frustrated as well. They said they *couldn't* and didn't pressure us to purchase...

    3rd shock blown out on 2018 XLT

    Doubt it was your fun on the trails... I just went to the dealership for an oil change at 10k and 3 of the 4 are leaking. No off-road and pretty light driving. Now waiting for parts, although after reading this thread I guess I should hope they aren't back-ordered. Once it's out of warranty I...

    What Have You Done to Your 4th Gen This Week?

    Do you notice any difference in ride or mpg? Been thinking about this for a bit.

    Totally getting one 2021 Bronco

    Smh. Ford seems to make the actual ordering process as difficult as possible for customers and the dealerships. I had money in hand and a dealership could not order the Expy I wanted (which was just not available anywhere). I got close, but it was a total PITA. I was in a local dealership...

    2021 Tahoe/Suburban beats Expedition in cargo space

    Yikes! This sucks! It's actually one of the big reasons I chose XLT over LTD/Plat; I was afraid the power running boards would fail and we *need* them. I'd be super irritated.

    Did anyone purchase the new expedition with X-plan?

    Joining the chorus of "dealer beat the X-Plan" - it wasn't even close for us.

    What model of Expedition do you have?

    2018 XLT with moonroof. Wanted HD Tow but couldn't find it in the colors/config I wanted, so we gave up on it.

    Oops. Magnet. The Expy doesn't own an oil field in Texas...

    1 like and 1 Dislike about your Expedition?

    Love so many things about it, it's hard to pick one! But I think the look, power/acceleration, and ride are awesome. The full moonroof is a big plus, too. My dislikes are pretty nit picky. Agree with others that I wish settings would stay as set (like Eco mode) and the dirt magnate tailgate...

    Underground car parking lot entrance height limit？

    Hahahahahahaha! My office parking deck posts a 6'7" clearance, and it is - as someone else rightfully said - a pucker-inducing experience. The Expy clears it by *maybe* 2-3 inches.

    Rear hatch dirt and spray build up

    My Magnetic Expy gets wayyyy dirtier on the back tailgate than the black Durango ever did & no car wash adequately cleans the license plate inset. Still love it! :D

    Please help me pick floor mats....

    I had Weathertech's in my Durango (1st/2nd row), and the 2nd row curled up pretty quickly on top of the 1st row not fitting quite right on the driver's side. We went with the Ford version of Weathertech in the Expy and have been really happy with them (1st/2nd row). I bought an aftermarket cargo...

    Check Engine Light - Evap Code

    Well, did all that, the light hasn't cleared. The only other thing I've noticed is the mpg are completely flat, even with tons of coasting that would usually have me up at 20+ mpg I'm 'down' at 19. Heading to the dealership at 7 am tomorrow to get it checked out. Hopefully the problem is under...

    Check Engine Light - Evap Code

    Thanks, Uturn! This was my first thought when the light came on as I had just gotten gas recently and my Durango threw this code if the gas cap wasn't just right. But the door has been firmly closed, and I just checked the valve a couple of times. Maybe it will go off from that?! I'll check it...

    Check Engine Light - Evap Code

    Hi, all! Has anyone had their Expy throw an Evap Leak code? Mine's been on for a few days (I don't drive a lot!) and I had O'Reilly's check it quickly to determine if I need to get to the dealership. Obviously I do, but I thought I would see if anyone else has needed work due to an Evap Leak code?

    2018 Front License Plate Removal?

    Did you end up plugging the holes? I want to pull off my front plate holder and am looking for the right plugs to make it look okay :)

    Heartbreaking News Article

    Such a sad story - this was on GMA or something yesterday, and the commentator said this makes 37 or 38 child hot car deaths this year. We always have a few tragedies in Atlanta, and it is hard to fathom. The comments on this story noted that the 11 year old might have been non-verbal and...

    2018 Ford Expedition

    So, Ford kicked our order late last week...they are only building Limiteds and Platinums until production stops in early to mid-September. Should have moved faster! Luckily, a local dealer had one on the lot with everything we wanted (and not what we didn't) minus the HD Tow, plus some great...

    Real world experience in urban environment (e.g. parking)

    This! My Durango was dinged up a couple of times on the doors from people being careless but also had wide doors (particularly the 2nd row), so if someone parked close we had trouble opening them. I parked as out of the way as I could, and really park out of the way now. Planning to get 10,000...

    Soft brake pedal feel

    I did notice that the brake was a little softer than I am used to, but it wasn't overly so; it didn't make me nervous or anything. I do think the Max we drove felt a little stiffer in the brakes, @dlcorbett.

    2018 Ford Expedition

    We finally placed our order this week...it will probably end up one of the last 2018s to roll off of the line, but we got exactly what we wanted! And ditto this! :waytogo:
