    Crossbars...height issues?

    I have the OEM bars. I use a THULE Boxter ski box and in most places with just the bars there are height issues. Forget having the box on top and trying to access a garage. That being said there are a very select few garages (usually at ski resorts) that you can access with bars and cargo box...

    Anti Freeze Leak

    Exactly what happened to mine. It was a bad water pump which would only leak when pressurized. I wouldn't see any evidence on my driveway and thought the dealer was BSing me. Turns out when they cracked the engine to do the pump, they asked if I wanted to do the phasers (parts cost only since...

    When to replace brakes

    I found on my 2018 that I had to do the rear brakes twice and just did the fronts (rotors and pads) in Feb for the first time since I got it in 2018. I have 185,000 km.

    Grille Guard on ‘22 Expy

    Man, if you came up behind me quickly I would for sure think I was caught....:p A deer hit me last summer and caused what I thought was just a bit of grille damage. $6500 later it was a lot more. A BullGuard would have helped out immensely!

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    This is my take on the Wagoneer as well.

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    Yeah a few things I felt they "cheaped out" on. Like Pano roof, ambient lighting and power ports. I literally have ZERO ports like 120v or 12v up front. It does have a USB and a USB-C in the cubby up front, but mine lost the wireless charging option due to shortages. It also has a 120v in the...

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    I'm not sure it rides better than a Navi as I have never driven one. My comparison was between my Platinum and the 1500 Denali. My "seat of the pants" feeling was that the Denali rode smoother and less choppy than my Expy. That is all.

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    Yes true about the pano roof. I was not comparing apples to apples on that. I do like the low profile rotary knob of the Expy. I thought when I got my 2018 that I would hate it, but I grew to like it quite quickly. The shifter on the Sierra is not like the Yukons push button on the dash, it...

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    Interesting. Now on my Sierra Denali I don't have the air suspension but do have adaptive suspension. I don't have Super Cruise (this time) but will try to gun for it next time. FWIW, I do love the 2018+ Expeditions. But it's hard to not love the imposing beast of a front end that the Yukons...

    Expediton Vs. 23 Yukon Denali Ultimate

    Figured I would chime in here. I just picked up a 2023 Sierra 1500 Denali 6.2L with Reserve package and standard box (not short box). A few things to note, the ride is better in the Denali than my Platinum. The seats in the Denali are short, I'm 6'3" and the cushion hits my legs mid-thigh. The...

    Gen 4 (2022) Engine block heater questions

    My block heater cord terminates out by the front license plate holder. To be honest, I have NEVER plugged my truck in and it is not garaged. We also get VERY cold temps here. A month ago we were a full week at -40F. Normally, we sit between 14F and 5F. When it was really cold, I would remote...

    2022 Expedition - Windshield cracked using defrost

    I thought it might have been cracked....Also make sure you get the recalibration done at the glass shop once the new glass is installed. With the cameras and sensors up there it is easy to jar one out of alignment.

    2022 Expedition - Windshield cracked using defrost

    You are right, it shouldn't crack when running defrost. We get severe temperature extremes here. When it was -40F and we were running the defrost on high all the time the windshields were not cracking UNLESS there was a stress crack or FOD crack or chip somewhere. Maybe that isn't your case and...

    2022 Expedition - Windshield cracked using defrost

    You likely had a small chip or crack in the glass already. Might have been somewhere out of the line of sight, like below the wiper blades or even near the edge. Ever so small. The drastic change in temp causes the crack or chip to get on the move. Part of the snow/ice management practices here...

    What the heck is this wire?

    That's a lot of black tape for it to be OE wiring, IMO. But you never know. Once your truck thaws out (you should see mine...block of ice, literally) you could try and follow it back and see where it leads?

    Adaptive Cruise Control, owner feedback...

    2018 here and love it. I also use it in stop and go traffic and literally never touch the gas or brakes. Love the full brake holding action and when traffic starts to move, just press the button and away you go. One thing I find is the rear brakes get chewed up quite fast. Even faster than the...

    Ceramic interiors , what's the experiences been with ownership?

    I have the med ceramic int and honestly, if I could, I would smash that option button every time. It's def harder to keep clean as it shows every denim, mud splash or coffee drip lol BUT the way it lightens the interior while keeping it classy (IMO) is top-notch. I've had the typical...

    Drive Modes- do they *really* do things like in the bronco?

    I tow a wake boat and have played around with Tow/Haul mode vs sport mode. I am not sure if Tow/Haul mode stiffens the CCD but I found Sport mode to keep the rear end a bit less floaty when hooked up.

    Winter wheel/tire setup

    I have the 22's for summer on Michelin Premier LTX (great tires btw) and run Nokian Hakka 10 studded on 275/65-18 for winter. Sidewall is almost 30% higher and the width is about 4% less than my 22's. Those Nokians are simply incredible in the deep snow and the studs are crazy good on the...

    22 Expy Limited Stereo…Surround or Stereo mode???

    Not too many (if at all) HD stations in the Edmonton AB area...boo! I wonder when you say "newest sat receivers" I would gather my 2018 Expy is not on that list. Would any of the car receivers fall into that category? Like F150's or Expy's?

    22 Expy Limited Stereo…Surround or Stereo mode???

    @LokiWolf, what is your take on Spotify vs Apple Music? I've read many articles and info on the comparison but Apple (Canada anyway) just increased their family music subscription by $2.00 (it's not the end of the world I know but still...) so this caused me to start looking around. I also have...

    22 Expy Limited Stereo…Surround or Stereo mode???

    Also, for those of us using bluetooth to stream apple music, I believe Lossless will not be available in that fashion. I typically have it set to Surround as I feel it enhances (obv) the "wrap around immersion". Don't get me started on SiriusXM compression.... Can I listen to lossless audio...

    All Warning lights staying on, including Park Brake Fault, See Manual, Pre-Collision,etc. Also sends Active Alerts to my Ford Pass app.

    I had something similar happen when one of my catalytic converters failed.
