I am in no mans land between Willow Springs, Mountain View and Arrol Missouri. Post office calls us Willow Springs, but we are closer to Mountain View. Long time driver of Chev Suburbans but love Ford trucks. Finally got me a 1999 Ford Expedition and I love it. Turns like a champ, rides nice, comfortable without feeling like your driving the SS MEGASHIP, MPG is not bad (old burban was a 454).

HAve had my issues with it but hell it was used what can ya expect. I guess my only wish is to cram that 3.5 ecoboost engine into it some how although pretty sure it wont happen.

Nice to see some locals on here

Bought my Expy (her name is Elizabeth) a month ago, just got back from a Thanksgiving holiday with my son and his fiancée in Wichita. She ran great – five hrs each way – and she is the most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. Had to go to school to figure out how all the options worked! No problem driving in the curve ball Mother Nature threw at our region today either.

Elizabeth is a 2013, an XLT with the King Ranch package, and 82K miles. Had a local Ford dealership go over her, and they said everything was "A-OK".
Perry Iowa? Almost bought a travel trailer from McKee RV, but my Mountaineer would'a been stressed towing that TT. My Expy has the heavy duty towing pkg, installed at the factory, so that TT would have been a breeze to tow. Spilled milk...another TT will come around that I have my eye on though.
Thanks for responding-
