We purchased this vehicle used. It had 90,000 miles on it. We pulled 2 different travel trailers with it. We off-road with it. It also holds 8 people comfortably. It has almost 200,000 on it now. It is slowing down a bit but rarely needs more than an oil change. We live in Michigan so it is rusting on the bottom. It is by far one of the best vehicles we have owned. The new expeditions are junk. We have owned 2 others and they have been in the shop every other week. I sure would love it if Ford would bring back the old trucks. Expeditions and Excursions the way they used to be. This thing drives like a tank through the snow and will keep the whole family safe and sound. Love this truck and wish we could find a suitable replacement.

This truck has been amazing in every way. It rarely ever even has any problems. It can make it through anything. Even in the worst winter storm you will not be stuck. It drives like a tank. It can fit 9 people. It is wonderful for families because of the space. It can haul our trailers and never even struggles. We tow a camping trailer and have never had a problem. I love the cloth interior because it cleans up easily and still looks new. This model has never had a check engine light that won't turn off unlike several of our friend who have other models and the light never turns off even though there are no problems. It has never left me stranded. I enjoy driving this machine.
Story
We take it to the dunes and test the 4 wheel drive every year with the family.
Pros
The vehicle is large which means you can hold 9 people or several people and their gear. I can tow almost anything. The four wheel drive comes in handy on snowy days or just cruising the trails. The power of this truck is remarkable even though it is getting up there in years. The cloth interior stays clean and has held up well even with several children and dogs. The truck sits up higher than other vehicles on the road giving you security and safety you can't get from any other vehicle. It has had very few mechanical problems which makes it a keeper in my book. The gas tank holds a lot o... (more)
Cons
There are not many negatives with this vehicle. The body in Michigan is tortured by the salt from the roads. The doors and the whole underside has rusted and some of it has holes where the rust ate through. The truck is huge to park in a space. It would not be good for anyone who needs to park in a ramp for work. It will barely fit in a standard garage let alone in a parking ramp space. If you have to parallel park forget it. You will not fit. Stopping this beast takes some planning as well. It is large especially if it is towing and stopping needs to be planned for. If you are looking for... (more)
