2018 Ford Expedition - Review and Road Test
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- The 2018 Ford Expedition has the towing abilities and ruggedness buyers expect from a full-size SUV but hiding beneath its hulking shape is an impeccably usable interior, helpful technology, a powerful EcoBoost V6 engine, and expanded use of lightweight aluminum. The 2018 Expedition is undoubtedly the best version yet but does Ford’s full-size SUV have what it takes to topple contenders like the Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon, and Toyota Sequoia? Kelley Blue Book’s Micah Muzio climbed aboard the 2018 Ford Expedition to find out.

Finally, full-sized third row seats with a full-sized trunk. Would buy one right now.
Ebenezer Eb I mean, every expedition that had independent rear suspension (2003 and newer) was known for having a giant 3rd row
Not a good idea, this generation is somewhat overpriced.
Teddy Gelafeir everything is overpriced compared to 10/15 years ago
overprice doesnt mean price increase
Ebenezer Eb ..I'm getting one! Amazing SUV and V6 twin turbo gets better MPGs than other big SUVs. Loved Expeditions since inception .
Big fan of the appearance
zrp0602 it’s so trashy looking up front
Brady Bisgard I like the outgoing model better
zrp0602 ×spaja pa
zrp0602 I love the outside but the inside is really dated
Looks like a beefed up soccer mom mini van
Makes me miss my 97 Eddie Bauer. Loved that thing, been in the family since new and had 302k miles. Still going with the new owner. There’s always something about these cars that just makes you fall in love.
Derek Townsley had one. Steering was floaty and dangerous. This one is better.
Derek Ortiz it took me a week to get used to it and after that I loved it
I'm still driving a 2001 Expedition and it's running great. Honestly not a big fan of the new design. Looks like less of a truck. The first generation really has a fierce look
@@derekortiz3663 what do you mean by steering is floaty?
Wow Ford did very well on the new Ford Expedition
Penguin 471 It’s about damn time it got redesigned!
Is this supposed to be an upgrade from an explorer
Penguin 471 yes i agree ford REALLY STEP THERE GAME 👍😁 CHEVOLET EAT YOUR HEART OUT😎
Front end is a copy of the Chevy but with a Ford emblem on it
wafrederick What are you smoking? They look entirely different lmao
I've never seen this guy before, EVER. But I will watch ALL of his car reviews from now on. They're pretty cool.
Thanks! Glad you like our reviews!
My family has a 2004 Expedition Eddie Bauer with the 5.4L Triton V8 and man its fucking awesome. Its still in the family and runs strong, even after all these years. The Expedition is such a great and dependable SUV
My 07 Ford Focus lasted 10 yrs and 231,000 miles with no major malfunctions. People badmouth American cars, but the Fords my family members all had always got 200 - 300k miles with no major problems.
dmax5678 same with my folks. I've got an 01 expedition that's always been in the family that has only around 95k miles, but my dads f150 has 281k miles, my brother has a 2006 focus with 210k miles, and my grandma has a crown vic from 1999 with over 300k miles, owned since new! It pisses me off when people talk about American reliability when my family and other families prove that their claims are not the case
exactly! it's not 1960 anymore lol
That's nothing. My 1993 gm k1500 is still my daily driver. 355k only needed a starter and brakes. Tell me gm is junk. Let's talk after an Ecoboost survives that long.
I don't need a SUV, but I'll buy one of these in a heartbeat.
ugly ford car
@@igihoihojojyune9846 your mom
I always enjoy watching Micah's reviews. Ford did an awesome job with the New Expedition.
I love that ford still includes the keypads... so convenient, I used it all the time
Same here!
Wow, really liked those camera angles and transitions. Really cool!!
I remember seeing the first Expeditions way back in the day and was impressed as it's an American vehicle but they sort of fell off for a few years, I feel they did great again with this design! More vehicle than I need but it does look good again!
Acc0rd79 Make Expeditions Great Again.
PitchTrails is
Acc0rd79 thanks to range rover connection.
I mostly agree with you with the new 2018 expedition design. But in my opinion, the only thing about the new 2018 expedition I don't like is the f-150 dash. Doesn't match with the vehicles design and the f-150 dash on this expedition just gives it a f-150 feel and look. It would be alot better if they improve this dash meaning making it different from the f-150 das and making it match with the vehicles design.
Finally, another option than a Suburban AND a usable 3rd row plus endless family features. This is a mothers car dream come true. Lol
But are you capable of driving it?
Victor Hernandez Rude much? Are you capable of manners?
In my opinion the Navigator looks much better!
Huevo Duro702 Navigator is built on same design it's just the luxury brand , cost alot more
jojo don't forget the dads!
Ford loaned me a 2018 Xlt expedition while my 2013 explorer was getting fixed up. We did not want to let it go. My family loved the way it drove. Every turn we took was so smooth. We want to get one but the price is a little too high. The expedition is not that “afFordable”. See what I did there?
Give it about 10 years n it wont ride the same
@@hesiquioperez1553 Are you Nostradamus?
Nah just being realistic. Called wear n tear
@@hesiquioperez1553 Nah just being true. A 10-year old Expedition now is different when this 2019 expedition will be 10 years old. Continue with your logic and be proud of it.
@@multicons u making no sense.
This thing is BALLIN
Got to test drive this bad boy at my school and my jaw DROPPED when I got in the Driver seat! It was easily the best SUV I have ever gotten in
What’s this? A KBB video on a Thursday? Dreams do come true
Very impressed with new Expedition and Navigator. Great work Ford!
I remember a time not so long ago when cars barely got 24mpg. Now full size SUVs and pickups can do it for days.
my 2003 Cadillac STS got 30 mpg on the highway. That old Northstar V8 roared too.
@@fit4ya1975 no way lol my 1997 Cadillac Seville sts burns threw fuel
beautiful ,,my next car in 3 years
I appreciate that KBB is funnier than the average car review channel lmao when he stuck his head in the armrest console
I have a 00 Ford Expedition XLT 5.4L V8 Triton & the 2 thing I have to complaint on that model is that the cargo area is very small when the 3rd row seats are in use & second is that when you fold & lift up the 3rd row seats it's still not enough space in the cargo area. Can't really blame them since it was their first SUV! I still love my 00 Expedition till this day. I have a lot of mods I want to add to the suv though.
So far I only added new LEDs on to interior lights and step lights as well.
Here are the mods I want to add onto my expedition in the future. Note that these are not in order.
Mods
1. New Headlight & Tail light units (LEDs included)
2. New Door Speakers (4) & probably a subwoofer or two
3. New Stereo Unit (touchscreen)
4. Entertainment Units inside behind driver & passenger headrest (DVD/USB player)
5. Vinyl seats (8) & vinyl plastic trim
6. New Carpet
7. Weather floor mats
8. New intrumental panel
9. Black tint windows
10. Repaint car to original color
And.... That's about it for now. Anyone have other mods that I should consider adding? Let me know please.
2:35 Micah takes car testing to a whole new level!!
Always love Ford:), and job as usual KBB.
The 4A mode on this one is actually very capable with the different drive modes. I had a rental and it got through semi deep sand no problem at all with the sand mode and lower tire pressure. Good job ford!
This is a really great video! The edits and shots make me very interested!
So glad you like it!
Shocked I kinda love this.....they've finally stepped up and away...Good for Ford.
Sweet. I’ll be honest, I’m buying it because it’s a huge 4x4. That’s it.
Needs to have a V8 engine. Yes the V6 is fast, but for reliability, sound, and smoothness nothing beats a V8 (except a V12)
yes exactly and in such huge truck it doesn't save any fuel to have small engine
Nope!
It's doing just fine. Fuck sound, it's a soccer mom mobile and gets way better mileage than anything with a V8 and will smoke any V8 equipped large SUV. Just ask Chevy.
Wrong
Please give me it as present!!! Amazing car, which is missing in Kazakhstan.
Looks like a good amount of head room as well. For those of us that are over 6'0 tall, that is the critical test. Good job Micah.
My only minus is that rotary nub for gear change, love the stick
Now that's what I call a real American SUV
Goerge Ibrahim look
I love the expedition it was the first thing I learned to drive in.
It’s a sexy truck who agrees with me!
I love my 01 expedition! I'd love to get my hands on one of the newer FX4s!
At a car show I sat on one of these but the second row's ceiling wasn't roomy at all. I am 5ft 11in and when I sat up straight my head touched the ceiling. It was confusing because this SUV is big but yet not much of head room.
I saw Micah in Long Beach on my last trip over. He's super handsome even in person. Expeditions are HUGE machines and I don't understand why so many people in LA have them. I'm from the PNW and we actually use ours and would rather pick up a used Suburban Mom hauler than pay full price for a new one, but they are awesome, can-do machines.
wow i like it.. i wander if the Expeditions will ever come to Australia
The Expedition/Navigator third row always felt significantly larger than Tahoe/Escalade. The third row alone is why I’d choose it over the GM twins. But that’s me, since I value third row space.
I liked this review, the presenter reminds me of British presenters which very informative, a silly humor here and there. I like it, subscribe!
Glad you enjoyed it, Ahmad!
one of my favorite things about the new expedition is that the vented seats cool you butt and your back, some fords with vented seats just do you butt
Gotta say I noticed that editing!
Nice one shots during the interior segment!
Yeah that Honda Pilot in the back steals the show.
Can't wait to get this
I have a 2015 Expedition EL. It's very spacious. It's pearl white and I just tinted the front windows and tinted the windshield with 25% tint. I ❤ the way it rides and handles.
Ive always thought that center Sony Console looked horrible, especially in the Explorer. Ive always wished they went with more of the style that resembles this expeditions center console. As well as replacing the non-LED turn signals, high beams, and reverse lights with LEDs, the Explorer would be one of my favorite cars. I do still like the vehicle, it would just be cool if Ford could change that on the Explorer.
ya you would think that every vehicle now a days would have ALL LED lighting, especially for how much they charge for them
I just wish it had a diesel engine option.
It does from what ive googled.
@@brandonh5201 not in the US I'd imagine.
@@UnrealOG137 probably yes in the US, the f150 has a 3.0 powerstroke wish It had one still
The interior is waaaayyyy better than the Explorer. I just don’t understand the center stack of the Explorer, it looks big and plasticky. With lots of buttons.
Jank Paul It comes with an owners manual.
Jank Paul exactly
Obviously i know how to use it, but it just looks odd. Its a big curved plastic protrusion. It's a nice vehicle, but that has to be my biggest complaint.
Jank Paul no fucking shit
Jank Paul The most expensive explorer is cheaper than the base model of the expedition lol.
Please Uncle FORD, don't leave Indonesia...we love Your Products
So beautiful and badass at the same time
I want that red pickup on min 4:06
Christian Alberto 😂😂😂😂
Everyone showcasing and pricing the Platinum... Just show me an XLT with the 22" wheels, panoramic roof, and cloth seats
CarterBurtonMotorsportsDotCom you can do that in ford website build & price
Can’t get 22’s in xlt.
Nice camera work. Like those tricks
They finally made the Expedition elegant
I don’t understand how Ford puts a 12” LCD instrument cluster in the Mustang but not in their “fully loaded” 84k Expedition.
Plan on buying one of these soon but I'm not a big fan of the rear but overall I still love it
Is the 2020 Ford Expedition out
I wish I had one. So awesome. Good work FORD. 😊😊
Never knew they were still in production will be getting one
“Is no problema” im mexican and laugh so much 😂
.
Build the wall!
Good color
Best review so far.
I love this car I’m gonna buy one now.
Strong hulking presence indeed.
My Favorite SUV Ever Along With Explorer And Everest
The more luxurious equivalent, the Lincoln Navigator, is super nice too!!
What would you buy?
2018 expedition
2018 tahoe
2018 escalade
2018 navigator
2018 yukon
The expedition is probably the best large suv out there
Was good until the question at the end. We don't row and don't do too much off roading, but with a large family that plays sports and travel, the seating AND storage are needed. Unfortunately mid sized suvs get cramped in both ways when traveling to games. This is a better option. Best option is to find a 2004 or older with a 7.3 diesel excursion and fix up for a lot less the 80k.
Wait, did you fly a drone into the car to get the folding seat shot?! I thought it was just on a stick until the shot flipped around and looked back and the rear was shut. Great shots!
The expedition is beyond beautiful. The explorer is the same. But both of them are roomy and have a LOT of Storage. Though as the Escape through the years got a lot smaller. Same with explorer. The 2004 explorer has a lot of trunk room. Now the new explorers is a little bit smaller than the old ones. But anyway they are amazing!
Awesome video=)))
Great review and sweet truck
Ford needs to offer the baby Powerstroke as an option on future models. They now have to go up against the Tahoe / Suburban with the baby Duramax as an option; and come 2022, the Ecodiesel in the Jeep Wagoneer / Grand Wagoneer.
Such monster
Ford Expedition is a single car with attractive and luxurious family.
Actually pretty freaking nice
1:28 the middle seat looks like a droid star wars lol
I liked the third row seats looks comfortable for adult passengers.
My dream SUV
The knob are such a turn-off. ...wish they could keep the column shifter in the suvs and trucks.
John Grytbakk time is changing so as the industry but it’s suitable on other vehicles ( less vehicles )
John Grytbakk A column mounted, digital shifter would be nice. It would allow for the transmission to automatically go into Park when the car is shut off.
John Grytbakk I think Buick still offers them. 😂
I agree. I hate that knob crap. Steering columns will always be my favorite.
Yes, because this is 1978.
I'm not sure what's hotter, Micah or that Expedition
Like the design, although I was sure the blinkers had like a divider in it, an angle led behind the Chrome bar beside the headlights then an led for the front on the other side of the bar. (At least the Interceptor version dead when Illinois got theres for my district)
will done ford keep going !
Easily beats the Tahoe in every way
Dodge Durango better
Except in looks
Chris McManus I agree I like the looks of the previous one better
Lincoln the best
+Zach Dubos technically its a midsize but Dodge categorize it as a full size. But its competition are definitely mid size suv like explorer and traverse.
I drive an 06 xlt. Sad to see the v8 is gone. That engine was fast as fuck.
These have gotten better looking since was first introduced in 1998 I think Ford first built these, I forget exact year Expedition first came out. I'd rather have this than a truck, my Town Car has adjustable pedals but never have used it or tried.
Wish it had a column shifter
Wow its fantastic the ford expidition is
Beautiful expedition
Ford Expedition is very good to drive by full size SUV 10 speed automatic with manual mode where they shift gears on +- button! My top 6 full size SUV with cargo space 1. Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban 2. Ford Expedition 3. Cadillac Escalade ESV 4. GMC Yukon Denali 5. Lincoln Navigator 6. Toyota Sequoia
Great review
80k , I leased an expedition XLT 4x4 back in 97 when they first came out for $250 a month
Ford's styling lately is really classy. Kinda ironic given how Ford is a mainstream brand while other names like Lexus try too hard making their cars look overly garish but they just couldn't pull off classy very well. Here, it seems some Lincoln Navigator classiness found its way to its more pedestrian sibling. Still, the Expedition is in many ways a luxury vehicle.
Damn, i really want that car. Too bad it's not on the european market
Gracias me ayudaste a decidir en la Chevrolet colorado o está
Creo que elijo la Colorado
I wonder if PDs are gonna adopt this.
Cypriano Way there will be a configurable police expedition
The only big issue i have with them is the shifter, I hate those knob shifters, its like that post said on fb the knob shifters look to much like the volume knob on the radio, you here a good song and go to turn up the volume and then bam your parked on a freeway lol 😂
Is that an Explorer on steroids.
4door 2seater no it's the flex on steroids
Jeffrey Wilkerson It does now that I looked again 😁
They need this in the UK
Wou are too severely wrong
