    Show your Lifted 3rd Gens

    TyCop7, That came out very nice on your truck! Just out of curiosity, it looks like a standard 7’ garage door behind the truck. Does she still fit inside with the lift and tires?

    2016 water pump… anything else to fix?

    Never ran hot or had warning lights. Even though this is a Florida vehicle and driven in the heat. I noticed I had small spots of coolant on the garage floor after an extended drive when the engine was warmed up. It would be a 2-3” circle or spot on the floor, near the front of the truck...

    2016 water pump… anything else to fix?

    Hey everybody, I drive a 2016 2wd Expedition SSV. I’ve noticed some coolant leaking and was told by a mechanic that I need to have my water pump replaced. The vehicle has 186,000 miles on it. It’s been well-maintained however when we are doing the water pump replacement, are there any other...

    Remove front grille and bumper (2017)

    The ‘15 ‘16 and ‘17’s have the older body style, but the 6cyl turbo. We also have a ‘08 Expedition EL in the family. In comparison I do like the turbo engine. It’s faster and more responsive than our truck with the V8. As far as reliability… our 2008 we got new and now has 240k. It’s definitely...

    Remove front grille and bumper (2017)

    It’s called Bronze Fire metallic. Depends on the lighting but sometimes it looks red, sometimes maroon, sometimes brown. This car belonged to the Florida Highway Patrol and as a southern car it was rust free. But the paint was hazy and swirled from being run through tons of automatic car washes...

    Remove front grille and bumper (2017)

    Logan, that looks like the front end of an SSV model of Expedition, also known as the police package. These usually, but not always, also have certain features like rubber flooring, and a column mounted shifter. I have a 2016 SSV with the same front end.

    Vacuum leak sound while accelerating?

    I also have the same issue with my truck. It’s a 2016, 2wd with the 3.5 turbo engine. I have 180k miles and it otherwise runs great. I don’t know how long it may have been making this noise as I just purchased the truck used. I’m wondering if it’s something with the turbo? It only makes the...

    Potential Expedition Owner in OKC

    I’m on my 3rd Expedition so far. I’ve also had a Jeep Commander, Chev Tahoe and Toyota Highlander in the mix. Our Expeditions were a 1997, 2008, and I currently have a 2016. Out of all of these vehicles I definitely prefer the Fords. The 2008 Expedition was our family hauler until my son...

    Fog light replacement 3rd gen

    Thanks for the info… Are they plug and play on the wiring harnesses? How about the mounts? Do you have to install new brackets or does it play well with what is already there? Definitely interested in having a quality light vs cheapo. (Within reason)

    Fog light replacement 3rd gen

    I’m thinking about replacing the dog lights on my 2016 SSV. They are clouded and cracked. It has the round style fog lamps. I’m wondering if anyone had any recommendations on what to purchase. I’m considering just using OEM fog lights, but have seen several aftermarket brands that are cheaper...

    AVS Aeroskin II on my 2016 SSV

    I guess you can say I lucked out. There is a small local used car dealer that often sells a lot of crown Victoria and other retired police vehicles. I was in the market for an inexpensive car for my son, who recently crashed up an old Buick he was driving. I wasn’t really looking for a truck...

    AVS Aeroskin II on my 2016 SSV

    Hey everyone, a few weeks ago I picked up a used 2016 SSV that was a former highway patrol admin/commanders car. I’m enjoying this one so far and have spent some time getting it cleaned up and looking nice, although it was in pretty good shape to start. The leading edge of the hood had a few...

    Dealer service records?

    Thanks guys, I got that part... I can definitely make a cold call. I was wondering if there is a specific document I should ask for. Or if all the records are in a specific database that any Ford dealer has access to? Maybe I could have my hometown dealer look it up and bypass calling that out...

    Dealer service records?

    Hi guys, a quick question... I recently purchased a high mileage 2016 Expedition and saw on the Car Fax report all /most of the service on this vehicle was done at the same ford dealer in Central Florida. Is there a standard report or document I could request from this dealer that would list the...
