Long overdue for a complete redesign, Ford gives its biggest SUV in the lineup a full makeover for 2018. Highlights include an all-new chassis, aluminum body, reduced weight, more power, better MPG, and more room. It looks like a super sized Explorer now with the interior lifted straight out of the best-selling F-150. Buyers needing the capability of a full truck-based SUV should look no further but be prepared to pay a hefty premium for the newest large SUV in the segment.

Good morning everyone! Just wanted to remind you this video was filmed while Sofyan was still dealing with his Bell's Palsy, so you will see the right side of his face is paralyzed. Not to worry though, he has made a full recovery since then. Thanks for watching as always!
Oh that’s why! Get well soon
Omg.. I love him. I am praying for him. I didn't know or understand what was going on but i did notice something was wrong. He's such a great person. I love his video's. May god touch him and keep him in great health. ❤
Ohh..... that makes sense. For a minute, I though he was high or something. I hope you feel better pretty soon Sofyan.
Glad he's better! Love watching his reviews keep up the good work!
I hope you are all good best wishes
Sofyan, I'm glad to read that you're doing better. But no need to apologize for any ailments or conditions you may experience. Your reviews are by far some of the best I have found on RUclips and I watch almost every one and will continue to do so! Keep up the amazing work!
What happend
Sofyan, honestly I can't even begin to describe how much you've been KILLING it in these reviews!! Every time I see your reviews come up in my feed, I get excited! It's like a real-life tour of the car available for me to view, and as a car guy it's awesome. You and the team deserve praise. Keep up the work!! I'm glad to see your subscriber count is finally reflecting the quality of your reviews.
Werner Kayser second this. These reviews are the most comprehensive I've seen.
There are so many review sites online now but I always check your reviews first because you provide fair, precise, and informative reviews for the average buyer and the auto enthusiast who has been into cars for 40 years or more.
This truck is incredible! I love the level of detail and high quality materials in it. Ford has outdone themselves for sure! I'm not a big fan of American cars, but I would consider this if I was looking for a luxurious truck!
You’re one of the only reviewers that does their homework. Always a thorough job!
Considering the 3rd row is precisely what makes this SUVs special, its appalling how many people who review this 8 -seaters don't actually get into the 3rd row and give us info on how tall/big they are. Outstanding work sir.
Alfredo Alfaro No it isn’t,almost every SUV these days has 3rd rows seats.
What makes theses SUVs special is their their still trucks, still built on a body in frame platform with real 4x4 and plenty work capability.
@@DragonKnightX12 Cramped 3rd rows you forgot to add. And though a few of these trucks are work-capable, they aren't designed for that anymore, that's what pick-ups are meant for.
Alfredo Alfaro Eh, Heavy Duty Pickups are still focused by Light Duty Pickups are going in a similar direction.
Outside of fleet and work trucks pickups, modern day men are pretty buying pickups over sports cars and luxury imports.
Been watching since 2014… still have that original nostalgia that I remember. You haven’t changed, and I hope you stay that way :)
I love your videos man. I really do. I drive a '97 F-150 and likely won't be affording anything to replace her for a long long time, but when I watch your videos then see a car you've covered on the road, I feel like I at least know exactly what I'm missing out on. Thanks for producing very high quality content in an age of under-produced over-saturated RUclips.
Glad to hear that you have made full recovery from your illness. As always your reviews are great and thank you very much for this video.
You and AlexOnAutos are hands down the best reviewers! I never miss a video
Hope your doing better! Love your reviews, info packed and very logical. Just what auto buyers need!
I really admire you, I only watch your reviews but I'm really happy you recovered from your bells palsy, I had bilateral bells palsy and never recovered fully so your definitely blessed! 👍
Going to look @ new Expedition this Saturday! Had '03 Expedition back in the day that was flawless. Go Ford!!!!
I like everything except the taillights. I have a 2005 Expedition and I still love it.
Wishing you a full recovery. Keep up with the great reviews. I am a big fan.
Still waiting for that Lincoln navigator review!
You will see that soon! We are going to test one next month :)
Redline Reviews get it faster
lol ... Lincoln is Ford
Recovering_Californian Lexus is Toyota. What are you implying ? Lincoln is back and is awesome. New Navigator in our driveway ..Range Rover gone!
They are awesome go test drive urself and inspect. I took one home for the family. Best luxury SUV to date. Remember Lincoln invented this segment.
Hello Sofyan! Glad to know you made a full recovery. I was also afflicted with Bell's Palsy some 23 years ago. I also made full recovery. God Bless!!
Just landed on this review. Been a fan for awhile, hope you get well soon.
As usual, great video. You're a professional. Push through. Your work is always too notch.
No need for apologies, may you have a speedy recovery and keep up the excellent job on the car reviews
Sofyan glad you are doing better. Keep the videos coming I appreciate the information provided in them
Hey Sofyan I bought ATS-V 2016 with 40.000 km on it here in Toronto and thank you for those reviews in past 10 some years
Glad you’re ok, Sofyan. Great review as usual.
Im a big fan of you! Im always on point on your videos! I wish i work with you! Im a big car fan! Keep up the good work! :)
This was just revealed in a motor show in my country a few months ago and got to see it. I don't get why people hate on this thing. It's quite amazing tbh.
Happy you're doing better---keep up with the great reviews! xo
As soon as i saw the video i knew you were having Bell's Palsy. I had it and i knew how it feel/look like. I wish you a full recovery. It may take more than a week to fully recover, but eventually you will get there.
Great work as always. Keep up the good work.
Redlines review are the best! Glad 🙂 Soyfan recovered! He is so great at reviewing the vehicles! Sometimes I’ll disagree with some of his opinions and yell but all Credit given he gives the best auto reviews on RUclips
I love the New Expedition, lucky for me I get too drive new cars different times of the month!! But love your videos, I’ve been watching your RUclips going on two years now before you had a camera guy! But keep up the great work! Big fan!!
These are the only car reviews I watch! I’m waiting for the Volvo XC40 review since I plan to buy one in a few months!
Great review as usual. Continued Love and Blessings to you!
Love all your reviews!!
Keep up the good work and it was a nice vid even if you were not well good job man mad respect
I have a 2018 F150 Lariat Supercrew with the 3.5EB... like you mentioned in the Expedition, the F150 with the 3.5EB is an absolute sleeper.... im in the 0-60 range of uner 5.5s... for a truck its a blast! You do great reviews!
You're the best, Sofyan!
Great review as always. I'm still waiting for that Audi RS3 review!
Thanks for addressing your issue bro because some idiots are completely rude
this episode was shot months ago. he's ok now
Great reviews.... Keep up good work...
Thank you for a great review man,
Hope u recover fully and keep up the good work .👍
T M why what happened to him? Did he had stroke?
excellent video review. I hope you feel better.
Good video. The FX4 Ford Expedition gives you a traditional 4x4 system with a 2-speed transfer case. It also comes with a rear locking differential. 😀
Sofyan does the best car reviews on youtube. Thank you.
My wife has what you got left side of her face sags a little but she doesnt let it bother her and she's as cheerful as ever. Great review, we have an 06 Expedition Eddie Bauer Edition with the 5.4 and still runs great with 119k on the odometer. We're thinking about trading it in on a new one later this year or early next year.
good reviews, feel better.keep it up .
No need to apologize Sofyan, it's how you deliver and make a thorough review of these great cars that we like you and how you do your thing. You are the BEST when it comes to car reviews! Been a fan ever since I've watched your first video. Thank you for your awesome work and take care always. Looking forward to more reviews!😊😊😊
Great job man!
Great review my friend so happy to see you doing well, lots of love 😍, Winnipeg Canada 🍁
Sofyan I’ve been watching your videos for years!! I was even subbed to your channel that was something like (xoxo.....) haha I forget what it was called😂Keep up the great work! I’m glad you made a full recovery, get some rest my friend☺️❤️
KaRon Smith what happened
Another great review. Thanks
Sofyan 👍
More power to U..
One of Ur avid viewers 💪🙏
Just by the title of this video I can tell you’re yet to review the new Navigator. Lol. Looking forward to that.
I'm still driving my 2000 fully equipped Suburban with only 103,000 miles. I paid $30,000 for it brand new and custom ordered! It is ridiculous how much these things have increased. Both Ford and GM admits that these are the highest grossing margin vehicles they sell. They are gouging their customers. And we keep on buying them! Shame on you Ford and GM! And shame on you the customer for buying them, even here in Texas!
Jay G. You can knock $8-12k off the price of half ton pickup trucks, i would assume the same would go for these large suv’s since theyre based on them. A fully loaded xlt expedition which has most of the same features as this platinum can be had for about 62k, 10k off that is 52k. Not terrible considering the prices of non-domestic suvs.
Jay G. So much stuff has changed over the past 19 years that you really have no clue of what you're talking about. Don't blame these manufacturers when they have the government putting stricter rules on them every year to be able to sell vehicles.
Gouging? Nah. People line up to buy them. They see value, even at these elevated prices.
Yea, 18 years of inflation, stricter government safety and emissions regulations, higher technology demand, more powerful engines and higher quality parts definitely shouldn't increase the price at all.
Best quality vehicle I have ever had. Engine just as powerful and same basic utility. It is because the rest of you followed me and bought these vehicles and GM and Ford decided to gouge all of you with insane prices.
great review!
Awesome features, I had been doubting Ford for a long time.
It looks great!
Still Driving my 2003 Eddie Bauer 4.6 250.000 miles drives smooth for a old ride
Great review! I don’t even like Ford but you made this interesting to see! My brother had Bells Palsey and it scared us because it mimics a stroke. I hope it goes away soon Chief! Great review!
This is a perfect Intro. 🌎🌴💕
Nice review!
Best car reviews on the internet and tv ! Thanks Sofyan!
notformebeaky or maybe he just prefers this
Then you haven’t watched TheStraightPipes yet
11:44 Yes, the FX4 comes with a 4L as well as a built-in trailer brake controller and trailer hitch assist (instead of the coin holder).
oh good to hear u recovered from the paralysis.
I love your car reviews. You are so enthusiastic about your work. I'm saddened to hear of your illness. Ftom the tag on the video I see that you have made a full recovery. I'm glad to hear that. I do have one other comment though, you test drove a high-end 2019 Ram. I'm in the market for full size pickup and I drove a Laramie and the ride was horrible. The steering was very loose and it did not have great pick up. Conversely I've driven nearly every model of the 2018 F-150 and the ride is the same across the board. Very stable and muscular and fast. You may want to test drive another Ram at a lower price point without the air suspension. Just my opinion :-) Peace and blessings to you
Awesome video. Thumbs up.. 👍👍 I wish this beast will be made available for Malaysian market.
Great review, I follow you on Instagram, hope you have a speedy recovery from your Bell’s palsy
I’m glad to hear that he’s AWESOME
thank you for review
the camera quality in this is much better than any GM product
Great reviews! Have you or can you do a review of the new 2019 Ram limited pickup?
Just rewatched this and noticed Soyfan's fresh Chukka boots! 👍
Bravo for omitting the two speed transfer case. Saves weight and complexity for a thing that virtually nobody (nobody who would drive this vehicle) will ever use. I’ve had 10 4WD trucks without ever having used a low range-except to see how it works.
i really hope that you test drive the Lincoln Navigator, because iam interested in knowing (and seeing) the difference between it and this Ford.
Great video!! Congrats on the porsche.
Love the new Expedition!
They bring the old 1996-2002 facelift at A new level
Hi Sofyan. Glad to hear you’re okay. Great review. Quick question. Do you think this would be overkill for a family of 6-7 as compared to the VW Atlas which almost has the same legroom sort off and would do the same task albeit not as nicely or quick. What are your thoughts?
Very good review! Will you also review the latest Toyota Sequoia. And would you talk a little bit about reliability of cars in your reviews. Thanks!
Wish we got this in Europe. Nice SUV
Yeah until you have to fill it up, gas is cheap in the US
Gas is too expensive in europe for them to have this kind of a vehicle and engine size unfortunately
Lol y'all missing out all the beautiful american SUVs like the Chevrolet Suburban , GMC Yukon denali and this one the Ford expedition 😂 ...these people right .... You have to pay high prices for gas ....
The new Expedition (and the Navigator) has the EcoTech V6 (same one as in the F-150 and Explorer)
Ryan Donovan it not the same as the explorer
Can you talk more about the engineering improvements to the engine and transmission quality of theses ford vehicles .is the engine a GDI and port system so the intake valves won't get fouled up from the pvc venting of crankcase vapor oils . Thanks for your support and time reviewing Ford products .I own a 2018 Ford king ranch with a 5..0 l engine with 1,200 miles driven.
Yay, my fav reviewer!
Way to go Ford!! the new styling is outstanding. Coming from a GM guy this is shocking to say but Ford is out doing all it's competitor's.
The interior is straight out of a f150 for 80k😂
J K Is there any difference from a Silverado and a Suburban?
Damarius Eaton there is no difference. He ain’t replying because he know he’s wrong
@@kevs2good133 Gm fans man
Hope you doing better now bro! I heard it takes 6 weeks to go away, fast recovery to Sofyan
I've been watching your reviews since you have 20k subscribers. This video is no different and even better than when you first began. Bell's Palsy or not, you are still my go to car reviewer.
good job Ford. You did it. I went to see this SUV and I will buy it.
You need to do a review of the 2018 Navigator as well
Can't believe how expensive these cars have become. Nice review btw
Lookin like redline spittin through the wire
This guy’s face is half paralyzed and he still delivers a well informed, honest review like a boss, much respect sir.
You know what's funny, that yesterday I reviewed your review of the Volvo xc60 and the fact that there was no mention of Ford's automobiles and today we get The Expedition and a report that Ford is discontinuing car sales in North America. I guess now we should look forwards to a eulogy.
Still the best family hauler
The Ford Expedition is by far the best full size SUV you can buy.
That is one nice SUV. Expensive yes, but well done. But with Ford you can spec them out to what you need or don't need. Very usable too, not just a people hauler, grocery getter but you could tow an RV or horse trailer. Nice review, and hope you are better soon.
Halfthor the world's strongest man had Bell's Palsy really bad earlier in the year. I got it from falling asleep with an ear bud in my right ear while laying on my ear. It was over a year ago and I'm 98% recovered.
Power reclining third row seats is a surprise. Ecoboost still sounds like doo-doo but excellent torque from such a small package...
Can you get runningboards that remain extended while in drive? I'm interested in drivebys
Excellent review! I look forward to your opinions on vehicles.
I really like this expedition especially because of its fuel consumption versus how big it is. I just feel its way overpriced. The XLT is a good price and well equipped with the 202a package but where they get you is In order to get the enhanced parking assist and 360 camera and front parking sensors you have to go up to the limited. Which is part of another package putting close to 70k!
I would not want to get this vehicle without the 360 camera, enhance parking or parking sensors due to how large it is.
Christian Nieves couldnt have said it better. Other things you miss in the xlt is the heated rear seats and the front massage seats - neither of which are really needed, but still. That said, 65k is better than 77k any day of the week. Could also knock a chunk off the msrp too since large suvs and pickup trucks are automaker’s highest profit margin.
Good review
