Towing?...absolutely unstable! 4,200 mile trip.

Friend rented one and agreed it felt light as if it would slide off the road. Our dream vehicle now so disappointed. We need help.

Nice rig and a great value

I was set on a Yukon but this had all the features I was looking for plus more towing capacity. The ecoboost engine is quite powerful and gas mileage and acceleration are better than I expected.

Great vehicle for traveling and towing.

Good outside and inside. Engine is smooth and powerful. With 4X4 it is a go anywhere car. The light colored interior reduces heat build up and is very attractive.

Most comfortable vehicle ever!

I have owned this Expedition for about 4 months, been on a couple 10 to 12 hour drives...extremely pleased with the comfort, performance and overall ride. Have owned lots of other SUVs/Trucks including newer 4Runners, F150, Sprot Trac and Trailblazer. The 2017 Expedition is my overall favorite over the last 30 plus years of military service, travelling from post to post...and all around the country.

Great family SUV!

I have only had this car for a month, but it is the most comfortable ride I have ever owned. We are a tall family and need plenty of leg room...and the Expedition has it. It is also very quiet and has such a smooth ride. Amazing car as far as quality and room. We just got back from vacation with 2 adults and 4 children on a 7 hour drive..adequate room for people and luggage!

Drives smooth like a luxury car

I am impressed with the leg and head room for adults in the 2nd and 3rd row. Its not crowded at all. It drives smooth and corners amazingly well. I have always owned sedans and crossovers but this big boy was able to turn into a driveway no problem that has always taken me 1 to 2 reverse and forward adjustments. Drives smoother than my Cadillac. The 2nd row seats are easy to fold down and put back up. The trunk has no net or hooks for a net so groceries WILL fall out if you don't open the rear window first to push back what is against the hatch. All in all it has plenty of space, is extremely comfortable from every seat, drives amazingly smooth and has a LOT of power! I love my expedition!

Love the expedition

It is solidly built, quiet, and smooth. The ride is like a Lexus and it handles almost like a smoothly. It's just the right size, has very comfortable seats and is loaded with technology!

Best all-around family vehicle ever.

Roomy, powerful, quiet, nice on and off road. Tried several brands, but this one stands out. Loads of torque, nice leather. Fully loaded with convenience accessories that are easy to use. Fourth full sized Ford SUV I have enjoyed since 1985.

Comfort and fun on top of reliability.

We purchased the Expedition Limited in triple black and have loved it from the getgo. Ford out did themselves with the power you get from the twin turbo V6 on top of the comfort the Expedition provides. Controls are at your fingertips with great visibility all the way around including the backup cameras. The spacious interior will provide more than enough comfort on long trips. Stay American and buy a Ford.

We love our Expedition!

Great fit for a large family! Roomy and spacious with all the bells and whistles! Rides like a dream! Leather seats with heat and cool option is a must!
