"Big roomy comfort with all the bells and whistles! Sharp looking with 20" factory wheels! Smooth ride and plenty of power to tow! I trailer a car behind and don't even know it's there. Interior is spacious and sporty with stylish leather! What can I say. I drive it everywhere."

"It gets 15-16 mpg which is what I was expecting. Would be nice to get a bit more but I bought the vehicle for its size, not its efficiency. It rides great and has plenty of room for the family plus a trip to Costco. The DVD player is a MUST HAVE with the kids. I had to purchase some headphones compatible with the system so I dont have to listen to the same movies 100 times although it has dual play capability. They can listen to the movie while I enjoy my music up front. I love the look of the vehicle inside and out but of course thats personal prefference. No issues beyond normal wear and tear noticed yet but I bought a good vehicle to start with and asked a lot of questions beforehand too. All in all I am very pleased."

"This vehicle isn't for a new driver or a senior. My Expedition EL Limited is Ford's version of the $70,000 Escalade. This truck rides like a magic carpet, pulls the sled trailor up the mountains, takes 6 men to the game, serves as a volunteer transport for hospital staff during a blizzard, turns heads all the time. That's right I love my truck. When I bought this one I passed wy 1997 Expedition Eddie Bower on to my 18 year old son.......If I had to pick somthing negitive to say, Don't plan on parking it in one of the first 15 parking spaces it's just to BIG. But ti's worth the extra steps. :)"

"I purchased my Expedition EL Limited June 07 and to date there are 100,898 miles on it (all mine), a new battery, a set of tires, 4 different bulb changes, and regular oil changes is all that I?ve had to do to keep it running perfect. The only dislikes that I have are the plastic moldings at the bottom of the front seats, and when the back windows are down it sounds like a helicopter, I think in part due to the roof mounted DVD player. Overall my family and I Love ?The Big Sexy Beast"."

"Love the ride, easy to drive Quiet cabin, except for squeeky tires (Pirelli with under 20,000 at 35 psi) when turning More than enough space and love the fold flat seats Very comfortable for front four (3rd row fits 3 kids comfortably with legroom for adults) Entertainment is reliable, wish I had 8- speakers 5.3L lacks power at 13 city/18 hwy avg. Int and Ext hardware needs solidifying, too much plastic *Tailgate on nearly every Ford SUV I've seen over 3 years old, including my own, has rust-like bubbling under the paint. It's not metal, so I am not sure what the bubbling is. * Design for rear-side power windows is terrible. They flare out for air flow, which is nice. 90 cent piece of rubber cracked leading to mechanical arm pulling away from window and will cost $1500 (parts and labor) to replace entire window (Ford only). I'm gonna glue the thing and see what happens! Would like to compare to new EL to see if minor issues have been worked out. Depending on how window turns out ($1500 could turn something good to not so good), I feel I made a good purchase on a used SUV."

"We purchased 07 expedition which replaced our Dodge Grand Caravan. We drove all of the competition before purchasing the expedition. The ford is clearly the leader of the large suvs and may be the overall best suv on he market. The 5.4l egine is smooth and works well with the tranmission. The handling and ride are better than the competition. All you have to do is have a look underneath the expedition and you will see a design much different than the competition. You will also not the use of many metals that do not rust. The safety is another big win. Noone matches in terms of stabiity control and number of airbags. This is the safetest vehilce on the road today due to safety features and size."

"Has the ride and quiteness of a Lincoln. For large people over 6'4" and 250 plus it gives you all the room one needs. I am not even tempted to trade for another product. I plan on keeping this one for a long time because it is just right for hauling a boat and camping."

"I have 5 children (newborn-14) and needed something that would fit everyone (including 4 carseats and a stroller). I thought my only option was a Suburban or Yukon. I was ready to buy the Suburban until today. I test drove it and wasn't happy. It was loud and uncomfortable. Also, the 3rd row was surprisingly tight with not much leg room. I left the dealer dissappointed. On the way home, we drove past the Ford dealer and my hubby suggested we stop. I was totally against a Ford from earlier experience. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Ford had extended the length. It was also much nicer then I remembered the Expeditions being. I couldn't find anything wrong with it. So we took it for a test drive and we were sold. It drove very smoothly and I had no problems backing it into a parking space. It also didn't feel as big to drive as the Suburban did. I was amazed at the leg and head room of the 3rd row, especially compared to the Suburban. We didn't buy one but plan to within the next month. I'm done shopping around and look forward to driving the Limited EL."

"i owned a 2002 Chevy Suburban LT and my new Expedition EL is a true winner! The slick new 6 speed auto transmission is smooth and much less coarse than the old 4 speed. The seats are really rich, the leather is so soft, and the dash is top notch! I payed almost 2500 for the power fold thrid row seat, buts its so worth the cash, its easy and no more lifting! Ford did a good job with this beast"
