    Tire recommendations for 22" w/ CCD?

    I have about 53k miles on our 2018 Platinum OE Hankook tires and will be looking to replace them soon-ish. I haven't been impressed with their performance, particularly in wet or slick conditions. In the past I've been pleased with Michelins (on other vehicles), so I'm primarily leaning towards...

    Preparing for doing first oil change myself

    I'm planning on changing the oil in the Expy myself for the first time (done it on other vehicles plenty of times before). I'm planning on grabbing some Mobil 1 Advanced and a Motorcraft filter, as well as a Fumoto valve (or similar). I'm just curious if this vehicle has any quarks I should know...

    Swollen Lug Nuts - Recommended Replacement?

    My 2018 Plati is at the dealership for some service and warranty work, the called me stating that the lug nuts are swollen and that I'd likely have trouble or be unable to remove them roadside in the event of a flat. I only have about 46,000 miles on it and I really don't think there's been any...

    Interior lighting

    My 2018 Plati is very dark inside at night when the doors are open. The dash lights and ambiant colored lights in the doors illuminate as expected when the doors are opened, but the ceiling dome lights don't come on. They work fine when turned on individually or when the button near the sunroof...

    Fault alerts after unplugging interior fuse box

    I needed to unplug the main connector on the bottom of the interior fuse box while hardwiring a dash cam and radar detector (fuse 37 is right next to that big connector and I couldn't grip it even with the tool). I reconnected it and and heard an audible click when it snapped back into place...

    Airing down tires on 22" wheels for off-roading

    We're taking a family trip to Utah in a few weeks and I'm hoping to hit up a couple mild trails with the Expy. I also have a Jeep that I've done a bit of off-roading in as well and will typically air down to around 12-14 psi. Obviously the Expy with it's 22s shouldn't be aired down nearly as...

    Can I safely tow a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a 2018 Expy Platinum (non-Max)?

    I have a 2018 Plati with HD tow package (non-MAX). I'm wondering if/how I could tow my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I haven't weighed my Jeep, but let's say it's 5000 lbs (including my modifications and some gear). I'm guessing an appropriate trailer would be around 2000 lbs. So even if we say...

    New Tires - 2018 Platinum

    Two questions... It looks like my driver's side rear tire picked up a nail in the tread about 1-1.5" from the inside sidewall. The dealership says it's too close to the sidewall to be repaired. I have a plug kit, how dangerous do you think it would be to repair this myself and keep it...

    Does this sound like the cam-phaser issue??

    I recently purchased this 2018 Expedition and am curious if this sound that lasts for a second or two when starting is normal or potentially the cam-phaser issue I've heard so much about?

    Wheel locks to match my Platinum

    I grabbed a set of McGard wheel locks, but they kind of stand out too much when installed on my wheels. They're a bright shiny chrome whereas the wheels on the Platinum have a softer slightly brushed/satin finish and the color is a little warmer. Does anyone know of a set of locks that are a...

    Items for inspection

    I'm looking at purchasing an 18 Platinum out of state and planning on having a local shop inspect it before I send payment tomorrow. What specific items should I have them check for? Thanks!

    Concerns buying an Expedition with a Canadian VIN?

    I've been shopping around for a 2018 or 2019 Expedition and found a 2018 with the right combination of features at a dealership about 5 hours away. The catch is that when I pull up the window sticker, it appears to be a Canadian VIN. I assume since a US dealership is selling, there aren't any...

    When will 2021s be out?

    Any ideas when the 2021 Expeditions might be out? We're shopping for used ones and definitely want a 4th gen. We're not in a big hurry so I was wondering if anyone has an idea when the 21s will be hitting dealerships? Hoping that'll push the 2018s and 2019s down more.

    Impact of Heavy Duty Tow Package (w/ 3.73 axle ratio) on MPG gas mileage

    I'm shopping for a lightly used 2018 or 2019 Expedition. I don't plan on towing much, but one I potentially like has the Heavy Duty Tow Package. I'm curious how much having the numerically higher ratio axle with this package will negatively impact gas mileage during typical around town and...
