    battery issues

    I have a 2018 and I’m on my third battery, all replaced on warranty. I live in Manitoba and it gets cold and I don’t drive the truck a whole lot in the winter months. Sometimes it would sit for 2 weeks between outings. It would seem that the parasitic load is enough to drain the battery fairly...

    Anyone tow a 7000lb camper?

    I can’t quite remember. I think it was around 2 or 3 litres per 100 Km. It was significant enough that it has become part of the routine when start on the road towing, tow/haul mode-lights on to power the rear camera-lock out 8,9,&10th.

    First Heavier Tow -- Observations and a few Questions

    Hi Saltwater Soul, About tow haul mode and gears. We did a 10,000 miles trip to Alaska last year and averaged 10.5ish mpg (imperial gallons hers in Canada) on a 30 foot 7200# loaded TT. I found that the Expedition had all the power needed to handle all of the hills and mountain passes on this...

    Ford extended warranty???

    Any one know of a good place to buy a Ford Extended Service Plans in Canada. My dealer wanted $4400.00 for a 6 year 150,000 km warranty. I can buy one from the U.S., 8 year 160 000 km for less than $2000.00 cnd, but would rather deal with a Canadian dealership if possible, but not at those...

    Does the 302 Limited have 400hp or 375 for 2019?

    Ran across this video a while back, had to do a little digging to find it, thank God for youtube history.Todd Hoevener, Expedition Chief Engineer at Ford, clearly states it's all in the tuning no hardware. If I remember correctly the Rapter has the upgraded turbos. Give it about 10 sec. until...
