Hello all. After driving an F-150 for ever, my wife turned in her 16 leased F-150 Cowboy's Edition and got a 19 Expedition, XLT. We were really surprised how nice the ride was, by far more comfy than an F-150. I'll be searching which headlight upgrade is best next, cuz these halogens suck! Did the upgrade to the 16, and my 18 F-150 with some some better bulbs, huge difference.

Happy to join the forum!
We picked up our new 19 Platinum AWD last week and we're loving it! The memories of our 2009 Escalade Ultra Luxury AWD have faded quickly without remorse.
I thought it was funny the salesman put the bow on the hood before my wife arrived to see the vehicle we were dealing on. 06a2b286b5b917682ea8c3a9eae6358d.jpgffc21da7865dd71604981394fd089370.jpgb5452eb2d703f9b471ce70fa324d188f.jpg
You wife appears to have discovered the fountain of youth...

Sorry hope the dealer didn’t use that as a selling point

Isn't intelligent 4WD functionally the same as AWD?
The order guides for both the '19 Explorer and Expedition list intelligent 4WD (Expedition also has a one speed transfer case).
Actually I think that's how they get away with having the 4WD badge on the back of the Explorer (so damn annoying).

the auto 4wd is functionally the same as awd but the option of driving in complete 2wd setup makes 4wd superior. I think there are awd systems that can toggle btw 2wd or awd automatically.

Toggling between 2 and 4 WD is the whole point of AWD isn't it? Initially its only 2WD until the computer detects parameters (such as loss of grip) that mean power has to be sent to all 4 wheels.

I really like those rims.. are they 20s from a f150? I haven't seen any with that combo... I was thinking of getting a black set and was worried about fit and rear axle...

Those are the opt 20s for the xlt expy. Most xlts have either the std 18s or are the fx4s, i dnt see many xlts on the rd with them either.
