Not me man... Im walking into that dealership, gonna tell them ‘aggiegrad05’ committed corporate espionage and forwarded the ‘Official Ford Expedition upgrade list’ against the wishes of the now exiled brochure producers. We will share this w the world!
Alright I laughed way more at that than I should have.

Im leasing a ltd 301. I ordered mine back in july, so i didnt get to test drive em before my order and by time i did mines was in production. The ccd is def a good bit softer than the std suspension, but they both ride extra good. You also feel the extra hp boost in the plat as well. You can run the eco with reg fuel, but to get the bump you need premium. The airbag cover isnt bad, the leather on the ateering wheel will make up for it, it feels great.

It’s just okay, the amazing thing is that I was obsessing over Denali but I was waiting to see what Ford was going to do. Now I think Fordnis better (except for the grill)
I love the platinum grille. Reminds me of my platinum explorer

what was wrong with the screen one? it works beautifully!! my explorer has it and it is one of the things i love. it is very quick and accurate. in fact, it is quicker and more accurate than a needle gauge.

Just doesn’t look cool or sharp like a tach, kind of..... Tacky. Plus they move too slow.

I went with the Limited w/302A over the Platinum for one reason, the Limited’s ebony interior carried the color up into the pillar trim and headliner and that was more important than the massage seats and all the other little aesthetically pleasing differences. I loved the massage seats in my previous vehicles and that is the one thing I wish it had that it doesn’t but I’d still buy the Limited again without reservation.
