Tried to go in a carwash (clearance dign 6'9") but wasn't sure I'd make it lol.

Slightly different numbers from different sources online.

Anyone KNOW what height garages and carwashes you can enter, FOR SURE??

Thx.

77.7" for 2WD and 78.3" for 4WD are the heights listed in the 2012 Expedition brochure for the EL. Personally, if it was really important to me, I would do the measurement myself.

But have you ever actually made it through a 6'7" clearance??

I agree, best to measure himself. Ford specs for 2007-2008 trucks say that 4WD trucks are actually lower at 77.3” and 2WD trucks are slightly higher at 77.8”. Normally this is reversed. I’m not sure if anything actually changed in 2012 or if their measurements are flaky.
