Hello everybody,

I will be picking up my new to me 2012 Expedition EL Limited tomorrow.
Got her with just under 120k miles. Carfax outline meticulous maintenance records. I wanted to enquire about any reccomend maintenance that I should consider once in my possession.

Can wait to pick it up. I traded in my 2015 Camaro RS as it wasn't a very convienent family vehicle.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Mike

Welcome to the Expedition community, they're great trucks. Was the Camaro a manual transmission? Also, I recommend you do oil changes at 3000-4000 mile intervals. Ford says that their engines can last longer than the traditional 3000 mile interval, but in order to keep mine running strong I change it much more often, as I also often drive in difficult situations with it, especially in the winter. As for other fluids, I do transmission fluid every 15k miles and the other fluids I leave up to the dealer. It's also been serviced three times. It's around 140k miles and I serviced it at 47k miles, 93k miles, and recently too at 134k miles. I do a lot of driving, often in bad weather and 4x4. She's still running very strong as I have maintained the truck very well.
