    2025 ford expedition redesign

    Silly engineers. I love my 2022 powerboost, and the ~22-23mpg city is great, who wouldnt want that vs the ~16 in the expedition? Hell whats an extra few thousand when the expeditions are at where they are anyway, so they could charge extra for the engine option, and play the green/mpg card...

    2025 ford expedition redesign

    I am surprised I havent seen more chatter online about a hybrid option. At minimum id think they would copy+paste the powerboost option. Maybe they are wanting to one-up it and go PHEV or something?. I see so many other variants being discussed!

    2018 Brake Pad Replacement

    Bought 2018 used last year, around 33k miles. Pads were shot, rotors were shot, i believe the vehicle came from PA area, rust was killer on them. I took the time to clean up and respray the calipers, their factory coating was gone, went with original silver color. Akebono for the fronts, power...

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    Here is the link where i got mine, they come loose all in a box, assuming thats how they offer them cheaper. Amazon has some as well, along with summit, etc. https://www.ebay.com/itm/25-GORILLA-LARGE-SEAT-OEM-OE-STOCK-WHEELS-LUG-NUTS-14X1-5-M14-ACORN-RIMS-CHROME/161049644684 61147cx and...

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    I believe mcgard makes a good 1 piece as well, so Gorilla is not the only option for anyone looking.

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    Chrome plating is different than two piece construction, note it says 1 piece construction in the same picture, the issue with ford's is the two piece construction, not the chrome plating.

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    Here are the gorilla ones, you can tell from the picture they are 1 piece. You can tell from the ford ones that they are 2 piece due to the lip.

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    Yes, OEM ones are, i think i read its tin or something. Either way they are 2 piece, water gets in between and they balloon up and then sockets dont fit over them. Going to a good solid 1 piece is the way to go.

    Stupid Ford Lugnuts!

    Decided to take care of the infamous ford lug nuts before things got too out of hand. Seller on ebay had 25 pack of Gorilla lugs for $68, i had some ebay bucks set to expire, so ended up only costing $55. I apparently picked the worst wheel first, ended up getting 1 lug stuck in a socket that...

    OEM/Thule Cargo Box's

    Dang, those do look pretty cool. Can i ask a few questions? Obviously you lose backup cam? Does it block brake lights, do you hook up or use the lights on the unit? This does look like a good option.

    OEM/Thule Cargo Box's

    Has anyone gotten either the "medium" or "extra large" Thule boxes through ford? The prices dont seem bad when going through one of the volume ford sellers, or getting your local dealer to match. $436 for the large, and i would need the ~$120 cross bars. I measured, and 84" seems snug to still...

    Spark Plugs?

    I replaced with SP550's, i was able to get them locally at o'reilly's without issue. Boots on these gen2's are different, they are like 6-8 inches long, Model #WR6151 (rock auto has them). They are not like the previous gen where the coil was long and the boot was like 2 inches. These are...

    Spark Plugs?

    FWIW just changed mine this weekend, 2018 with 12/17 build and it had the SP550's in it. I saw on some of the F150 forums ford changed to those for everything after a certain build date. Yes i was way early doing it on the mileage (35k) but for a bit of time and ~$35, seemed like a good idea...

    How much are you guys paying for brand new '19s?

    Yep already got that last week from zeigler, going on vacation next month that would put us over 36k, so i wanted to go ahead and get it. I also noticed it still lets you get it over 36k, but it does go up another $100. So it goes up $100 after 12k, another $100 after 36k, and not sure at what...

    How much are you guys paying for brand new '19s?

    FWIW for comparison. Was able to find a used 2018 (12/17 build) with 34k miles (fleet unit) with 302A and RES, original MSRP of ~76k, and i paid $45,990. I had been looking at cargurus for a few months and this one started at $55k and they lowered it several times over 4 months.

    New Owner - Parts Question

    New owner of a 2018 Expedition 302A. Picked it up this week, it was used with almost 35k miles, a fleet or rental vehicle. MSRP was around 76k (302A with RES, vin wont load sticker at forddirect, says check back later) and i paid 46k, so i feel it was a solid deal. Given that it does have a...
