Ford Expedition XL

Well after 7 years and 80,00 miles I am still excited about turning the key in my Ford Expedition every morning. I have gotten 20.3 mpg on a trip from fairfax, va. To virginia beach, but it normally does 18+, it seems to like 80 mph (smile). I have used synthetic oil since 12,000 miles and change it every 6k. The leather seats still look nice and are a joy because their not cold in the winter and not hot in the summer. My first set of tires were replaced at 58,000 miles (they still had hi-way tread, but not sufficent snow tread left on them). I have spent $430 on it besides normal upkeep, and would buy another if Ford hadn't of wimped out the suspension. Turning radius is sweet, and its highway response is nice (remember to keep your air pressure in the tires at the recommended pressures). The front and rear a/c work very well, and heaters will keep you toasty. I recommend the towing package its a few dollars well spent. My 82 year old mother enters and exits without a problem. My family finds it roomy and comfortable on long trips. The premium sound / cd changer is a must, with all the interior room it sounds nice. it has never been garaged, but still shines nicely. I guess you can tell I like itI have owned, my 1982 f-150 is still seen around fairfax, va. when my expedition reaches 19 years I will rate it #1.
