New Expedition owner from Va

Hello my name is Jeff. I just picked up a 2001 Expedition Eddie Bauer 5.4 for my birthday. Since a Mustang Cobra does not carry 5 people in comfort.

Well that is a little about me.

Im loving my new truck. I had to give up my Cobra tough but Im loving my truck. I will post some picts a little later today. Right now Im off to Home Depot to get parts for Gotts mod.

I just have 2 questions. First why is is my sun roof only opens at speed and not at a stand still?

Second I know its a truck and mileage is not great but Im looking for ways to help improve it. An I do drive pretty conservatively.

Edge Evolution CS for gas mileage! BakerEdition is having great success with it getting like 19 mpg on the highway. If you have any questions hit him up.

Thats what I was thinking. At what speed is that tough. Milking it on the back roads by were I live I get 18-19 at 50-55mph.

So far so good. My next road trip will be the true test as far as MPG. But hell for $12 its hard to beat. My next purchase is a good aftermarket airfilter.
