I got wifey a 24 nautilus and really like the dash layout like above. There's only a handful of widgets for the right half. Very relaxing and peaceful. Non round steering wheel takes a bit to get used to. Wish there were more apps.

I hope this tech makes it into the 25 plat. The google system is so much better than traditional sync.


The deal breaker for me is going to be the rear hatch. If it is different from now, and more like a pickup with a fold down lower half, I'm going to get something non ford.

The 2025 Explorer dash looks really clean. I hope the 2025 Expedition's looks similar.

I would think hard about the new liftgate format too. If it drops down like a tailgate, it will make it tougher to reach in and grab things as you will have to lean over approx. 24" of gate instead of standing right at the bumper. The need to crawl in and grab stuff is not all that convenient, especially if one has bad knees and such. I love my tailgate step on my F150 and that makes it easy to step up and walk in, but with an enclosed compartment that you can't stand in, crawling is not a good option for us.

This may force us to move ahead and buy the new '24 that our dealer has on order.

Headlights look very similar to current GMC Sierra. The taillights look exactly like the GMC Yukon. Wonder if Ford is buying the lighting package from GM.

It's a bit disappointing in that Ford is still going with the LED reflector design. I believe the 2025 Tahoe/Suburban/Yukons are moving to a LED projector design.

The refreshed yukon doesn't have the same headlights shape as the current though the led strip still uses the c clamp design. However, the f150 used the c clamp design even before the Sierra and yukon

Ford usually doesn't reveal multiple products at the same time, so I could see them doing one in August and the other in september.

The 2025 Yukon may be revealed on Aug 19th.

LET'S GO FORD!!!! When is the 2025 Expedition reveal?

I feel like ford was waiting for this, they were gonna wait until all the gms were revealed so they don't steal the ford suvs thunder. That said, I feel like September if going to be the reveal mo th. But the escalade has already been revealed, they could have atleast revealed the nav

Pillar to pillar screen, whoa. As a retired Software application Engineer, I could have fun with that project. I'd go with the Star Trek - Next Generation. The consoles on that ship were complete configurable to the person and role using it. I would want it to be a touch screen for maximum functional possibilities. I would create a PC based application that simulates the pillar-to-pillar screen and allow the user to specify via drag-and-drop, from a library of choices, what and where to put gauges etc. on the screen. Could have add-on libraries with different gauge styles. Besides a default screen arrangement, each driver could have their own arrangement. Could also have multiple auto screens that auto switch according to present status of the vehicle i.e. in reverse, cruise mode, power on motor off, diagnostic mode, etc.

Wifes 24 nautilus has the wide screen. It is really nice. Since the pillar to pillar is out of reach there is a smaller screen that controls the wide screen. You can drag and drop widgets. Fairly limited but looks beautiful. They have driver profiles.

The problem with ford is that they are not a software or technology company. Now if you had a pillar to pillar and tesla software running it would it to be perfect because they listen to their customers and truly have the best software support. An 8 year old tesla is running the same software and updates as a brand new one. Including all the updates over those years. All at no charge.

The only thing ford wants is to come out with new features for the next model year but never make those new features available to their older vehicles. people have to buy a new car to get the latest features and they are minimal enhancements and usually buggy.

And the average driver could never figure out how to turn up the sound system or use the HVAC?
