2022 Expy announced

[dlcorbett]

Construction zones may cause confusion because the sl is GPS based and they don't always update the work zone speed. When I had my 18, so.etimes it changed to work zone speed, but most of the time it didn't.

Man, I just can't get over the front end, especially those cheap looking headlights. I'm shocked that they didn't go the projector route like they did on the super duty and f-150.

With the current gen expy, the front end has masculinity and presence. The top and bottom config of the low/high beam with the chrome accents around each light looks far more elegant and unique. Now it just looks likes everything else on the road. The lights don't stand out at all. Interior is nice sans that all of the center console controls are no longer physical. Ford will learn just like others have when they add them back in for the 5th gen. Just watch.

That new grille design, with much more open area, I would have to install a wire mesh to keep the radiator from getting dinged.

In my 2014 Lincoln MKT, they decided to remove the majority of buttons and relocate them to the screen (like rear hvac controls, heated / cooled seats etc) and in the beginning I was like "Wow...this is neat" then the novelty wore off and it became "FFS, I can't turn the heated steering wheel on without going through 6 layers of screens" Ford didn't learn it appears?

So without looking thru all those links, I assume the screen controls everything.... I have a 2013 Ford Flex thats like that and ALL of my employees ***** about that. Myself included, so annoying.

Check this out from a review of the Mach-E, which sports the same screen.

The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Is the Fast, Electric Mustang SUV

While it looks like most everything will be controlled by the screen, there are dedicated climate control "buttons" on the screen, there is a dedicated volume knob, and they have made certain allowances for the fact that screens can be finicky to work.

I am not suggesting this is ideal (I like buttons too), but I do think it indicates they put some thought into it.

Exactly what I was thinking to. All kinds of crap hitting the radiator. Imagine the bugs!

That's what I thought too. It looks OLD, blends with everything else. They took a beautiful front end and now it looks like a Nissan, or worse. Absolutely terrible.

no ventilated seats on stealth and no HO 440 HP in the platinum. might switch to Navigator

I was amazed when he said he was zoning the truck for not having ventilated front seats, lol.

Same here. Already had my name put down on a list at a local Lincoln dealer. The revised front on the Expy is vomit inducing and they skip a powertrain upgrade on the Platinum? Time to move on. Whoever is in charge of the Expy design and options needs to find a new job.

 

[lv2drive]

thanks but no thanks -

even with the HO - heck even if it had the hybrid - front end is so terrible... i’ll keep my gen4v1

Im right with ya Im also on the list at the Lincoln dealer.

Chevrolet is just awful on the front end too. Fords is now pretty bad. Has anyone seen Nissans? I puked in my mouth the first time I saw a new Armada. Cadillac and GMC did a good job though, both the Escalade and Yukon are looking good.

I saw that in the video. It could be that the example they had at the show just didn't have that option.

If the stealth doesn't have em, the platinum doesn't have em either because the pics of the climate ctrl on the screen look exactly the same for both as well as his review.

Yup. The more I look at it the more I realize how it’s looks eerily similar GMC Acadia up front. Literally the grille and headlights are carbon copy. This reminds of what they did with the 2018-2020 F-150. They took a timeless design in that of the ‘15-17s and messed with it.

Wifey and i decided on this trim and color, but with the other platty 22s.

 

[Boostedbus]

Tough crowd! Okay I admit it’s not my favorite looking front end, but it’s not as revolting as some make it out to be. At least they didn’t revamp the old Edsel front end with the puckered fish lips.

I find it hard to believe that the cooled seats option would go away. Let's wait until the order guides come out.
