Old video, but there’s a reason my my mother buys Expedition. Although skeptical of the new one that was realized in 2019 and the Ecoboost V6. we went out to NYIAS at the Javits. And the Expedition was the ONLY 3 row SUV that could fit our family, and our friends family without complaint! And on a test drive. She was very happy with the pickup of it! We bought ours and we had for 2 years. And no issues!
I have had my 2019 Expedition Platinum 4x4 with towing package since late March 2019. I’ve taken it on several interstate trips and use it as a daily driver. I have over 11,000 miles on it and have changed the oil twice. I find that putting the drive mode at the “Economy” setting makes it shift the smoothest for the way I drive around town (counterintuitive). The onboard MPG computer says I’ve averaged just over 19 mpg since I drove it away from the dealership. To get a Navigator trimmed with what I have in the Expedition would have cost another $10k but would have been worth it for someone who didn’t flinch at that. I agree with everything the reviewer says in this video.
Platinum is the only way to go. For 10k less than the Lincoln is a no brainer, the massage seats are great. After my 2nd Expedition I could not take that weak V-8 Ford any longer and went to a Denali 6.2. The twin turbo Ford V-6 and the 6.2 GM are close to equal power otherwise for the fuel economy, Ford wins hands down.
I purchased a platinum 3 months ago. I agree with all the likes and most of the dislikes. Especially the floaty part. I conducted hours upon hours of research between the expedition and the suburban. As Chevy has not changed their style yet, I chose Ford. For me, great choice.
‘09 EL/Max here. I use it as my contractor work truck, and love/use all the cargo space behind drivers seat. Would like to do TRUE off-road packages, but with independent suspensions, best that can be done is restrictive bigger tires.
The one thing that all reviewers should mention is the average price paid or typical deals and rebates. In St Louis by March of 2019 through end of year our Ford dealers were taking 17-21% off sticker, there were no dealer add on BS. Ford sells a lot in this market and its very competitive in the truck and suv segment between brands. So is a 70k Expedition a good value at 56k?
I bought the 2019 limited stealth expedition and love it! The only thing that have noticed is that the transmission can and does get confused at times! Its seldom, but does happen.
Platinum Expedition fully loaded is around $80,000. Comparable luxury sister Navigator, the Select is 2 trims up the ladder, with a seating package to add heated and cooled seats, to compare to a Platinum Expedition. Without that package (heated seats are standard on the Select Navigator), you have to go 3 trims up to the Reserve. Comparable Select is about $86,000, Reserve is $90,000. It is hard to find a Select with heated and cool seats, as Ford wants you to pay more and get the Reserve model instead. So in reality, it is a $10,000 difference to upgrade to a comparable Navigator. But if one can drop $80,000 for an Expedition (Expy), I think they can afford $90,000 for the Navigator (Navi). GM triplets are no cheaper if equipped the same, and at times even more. Saying that, if I could afford it, it would be a Ceramic Pearl Tri-Coat Metallic Navigator with Russet seats...
Black E. Blackerton I don’t know about all that but I have a 2019 expedition Limited max and it came with LED headlights heated and cooling seats for the first and second row front side and back cameras.. the stepping board goes up & down when you open/close the door to step up in .. intelligent cruise control to where it slows down if you get too close to the car and then speeds back up, rain sensing wipers, big screen with the navigation..and lot of other things... and it ended up being around 73,000..All black and black rims with silver trim… Pretty bad ass and fun to drive… But I see the bad things that he’s talking about and it’s true still over all fun vehicle.. The dealer told me that the only difference between mine and the navigator was about 10..15 grand and a little bit more chrome. Not too much more..
I had an '03 Expedition and loved it. Wore it out! Now I have a '13 Explorer and hate it. I hate the jerky transmission with the Flex fuel feature, the shallow seats with no thigh support (my inseam in 29"), the aggressive head rest is ruining my posture. I want to go back to an Expedition but the price is stupidly high.
2019 Ford Expedition Max Platnium. Bought used at 45k miles, rear AC broke in shop 20 days, 1st to 2nd gear jerk in shop for 7 days. 10 speed tranny overheated towing nothing in shop for 24 days, and this is the 2nd replacement tranny. One Seat belt sensor defective air bag light on - this causes the air bag system to NOT DEPLOY, in shop for 7 days. Keyless entry not working after any rain. Drove 11k miles over 20 months, in ford shop 58 days. I would say this suv was rushed into production.
Have a 2018 XLT Max 4X4 with towing pkg. Compared to a similar level Suburban with 5.3L and 6 speed the Expedition is a rocket ship (heavy on ship, this thing is huge). Love the torque and power from the 3.5 eco boost and 10 speed. Third row seat leg room is best of any and all three row SUVs on the market. As noted this a very comfortable vehicle to drive and ride in. I have four adult children and they like road trips in this way better than our old Suburban.
Spot on. We have a 2019 truck and 2014 expedition. The truck is floaty and has a wonky transmission. The expedition has the 5.0 engine and I pull a lot of bis stuff with no problems. Thinking about a newer expedition and they are so much more loaded out than a Yukon. Seats are so much more comfortable. But my 2014 is still so awesome. Will prob wait a while
We have a '19 XLT Max FX4 w/ tech pack. Transmission is a rockstar for my driving style and sport mode really helps if you like it holding gears in higher revs. Agree on the bit of float under certain road conditions. It is way better on the on the Max (never felt unsafe) than the reg length wheelbase. Also adding a true AT tire with a 10 ply sidewall helped ground the truck under turning and accelerating lightness. The headlights are the halogen projectors on the top optioned XLT and they aren't great but the auto high beam system is way way more responsive than our old Ram so high beams do help illuminate when you really need it. I'd say last dislike is the sound system on the XLT with all the options. I've never been an aftermarket stereo guy but this truck needs some help if you like listening to music. In retrospect, we'll see how handy the FX4 package (locking diff) comes in handy this winter otherwise the Limited or Platinum would likely help the truck out in the sound and slightly in the lighting dept.
I drove a 2016 expedition el . It was great. Hauled people round trips of nearly 700 miles, 2 to 3 times a week. I just bought a used one with 33k miles on it. Where I live it is great in the bad weather we get. I don't know about spending over 100k on a new one. But if you have the means. Buy away.
Now I know you're talkin about a 2019 model but I recently bought a 2013 model and the one thing I was impressed with about it what's the lack of body roll around corners for a heavy four-by-four vehicle and I'm wondering if it's still the same
Good review. However, you missed two important negatives, one, huge turbo lag and two poor breaks. I had owned a 2012 Ford expedition (5.4l v8), that truck had much better automotive characteristics (power, handling, breaking etc). I am disappointed getting the newer version (2020).
I have a 2019 ford expedition that I purchased used. I love the SUV and I've been able to get used to it's size but I agree on the trans, it can be a bit jerky. One pro I will give it hands down is the power is great. I have my expedition in the shop due to a fender bender, and I have a ram 1500 laramie as a loaner, it feels very under powered compared to my expy.
XLT Max: Gear shifting does seem rough at times. The factory non-BO head unit is really nice if you add aftermarket speakers and amps. 20” wheels seem small, look small too… the tire and wheel combo could be “24 on 295 if they fit, it would look better. The B pillar hasn’t presented any problems for me and as the driver it really isn’t recommended to turn your head back that far while driving. I never cared for a sunroof but this one is phenomenal!
It looks extremely comfortable and I would consider the Navigation for that price tag too. If I ever buy another vehicle in the future I’m gonna make sure you do a review, so my search can be easy 👏
I bought a leftover 2019 Expedition early December and it has so many bells and whistles, I’m scared to drive it. I have had it for 6 weeks and only got 270 miles on it. It looked great sitting in the garage until I bought a custom car cover for it. I have put the cover on it only once and it has not came off of it yet!!! Love the driving feel but still scared and to accustom to my 20 year old vehicles. They are all Ford family vehicles too.
Talk bout rich people, you mean you just bought such an expensive vehicle and just put leave it in the garage, for months? I hate you …. I would drive the bitch to the bedroom if I spent that much on it, I might as well in that motherfucker
I took an Expedition Max on a cross country trip from Maryland, through the rolling hills of Pennsylvania, through upstate New York, and cross border into Ontario Canada and back, 1450 miles round trip. This all Black SUV gets respect. I did experienced the Floaty ride on the way up to Buffalo. I fixed that by adjusting the cold inflation tire pressure from the recommended 35 psi to 38 psi. The ride firmed up quite good, but I was fearful of a blow out, and so monitored the Pressured constantly. The onboard tire pressure monitor indicated a tire pressure rise to a maximum of 41 psi for the last 750 miles of the trip. The tire sidewall information indicated a maximum inflation pressure of 44 psi.(That left me with a 3 psi margin). I checked a tire store and all the replacement tires(18 inch) all had the same 44 psi max. The Tires for this 5600 pounds SUV had a maximum inflation pressure of 44 psi, while the vehicle recommended tire inflation pressure is 35 psi(That is a 9 psi margin)..... weird...my sedan tires have a maximum inflation pressure of 51 psi, with a recommended inflation of 35 psi..margin of 16 psi...Again I say 44 psi maximum is weird and low for a 5600 pounds vehicle..
I have one 18 ltd without the 22s and ccd. I will comment on your likes and dislikes: Likes-comfort and space is top tier. No other suv pd comes close to comfort and space of the expy. I love the powertrain, its powerful and efficient when u want it to be, mostly. Dislikes-the leds should be std. Mines didnt have leds and the halogens are terrible, esp with how the projectors are designed. The tranny does behave odd at times. Once it learns your behavior, it performs better but still has its hiccups. Lastly, minee does not have ccd like what was tested. With that said, the base suspension is more firm so it has better body ctrl esp on bumpy roads, but you lose the amazing isolation of the ccd. At times its too firm and bad roads cause it to jitter hard but still mostly comfy
I’ve noticed on mine when we roll the windows down the inside material on the ceiling below electric sunroof makes so much noise from air blowing in, very irritating.
I think it wouldn´t be a fair comparison , first of all the the size category! in and out, and many other important comparison parameters such as engine type and size, off-road ability, tow capacity, ... I think the two are not comparable, they differ from each other in so many ways. Am not an expert reviewer, but I can say, In my opinion, The Telluride would be more to compare to the Explorer or Chevy blazer to name few
I wouldn’t buy one brand new because I think they’re overpriced...but if there’s one at a good price a couple years old I think it would be a great vehicle
Prime Autotainment The ones that are a couple years old are back to the old shape though…I have a 2019 limited back’s and I absolutely love it but I see what he means about the bad parts but they don’t outweigh the good.. It’s really fun to drive I’ve had it for six months now all black with black rims… Pretty cool .. a lot of technology in it!!
Once thing is am trying to get a custom wrap for the car.. so can it hold up magnets so i order some for holding up my wrap wheil i work with it while i do my thing with the heat gun.
Does anyone know how to do where to buy the upgraded headlights not just the whole led bulbs but the daytime running light the whole assembly and is it plug and play ?
I just got a exact same one as yours It is only one bothering me that a kind of noisy sound is able to be heard when engine starts at beginning seconds It is normal or do you have same feeling?
adew dew I saw another RUclips video where the guy had that problem and it ended up after weeks in the shop being a lemon law case and he got his money back. I’m hoping that problem doesn’t start with my Expedition because I love it.
Your five likes are agreeable. You're five dislikes you should have never put up there because they are ridiculous those are minor fixes that people can do on their own that is not something you want to put on there driving down the road. Number one don't drive on the road. Number two you can't see over your left shoulder , you can you can buy the little adjustment mirrors at an auto store. And number three when did halogen lamps and led become the most impossible thing that you cannot change on your own. Dude get your shit together before you make another video
Here’s a rebuttal: - Transmission - it’s not smooth. It’s very inconsistent and has rough shifts. It shouldn’t be like that. - floaty ride - very minor because it’s still comfortable, but certain roads and areas it will feel like you don’t have adequate control of such a big vehicle - expensive - that one explains itself - huge B pillar - yes, you can buy extra little blind spot mirrors…but hardly anyone does. Sometimes a blind spot monitor is t reliable and nothing beats looking over your shoulder for safe lane changes - halogen headlights - they’re terrible. If you out LEDs into typical reflector halogen housings…you’ll blind everyone. Hence why so many people hate LEDs. Many people out them in the wrong housings and it sprays light everywhere. I’m not asking you to agree with me, I’m just letting people know. You don’t have to like it
@@PrimeAutotainment you are very correct, I admire your composed and mature response, me I’m looking forward to get a used 2019 expedition, given that the vehicle is so high, I’m hoping to get one with over 80k miles on it atleast , that way I’m sure the pricing with take a bow 😆, I really love this car, my car preference have always been conform, space, and an intimidating appearance , there is no gain saying that this vehicle clearly embodies all these qualities, you are basics driving a truck and an SUV at the same time
@@PrimeAutotainment Naw not saying you but in general whenever i cross paths with one of the two owners they almost ALWAYS have to test me lolz. Idk if they dont think i cam keep up but they're always surprised.
Please stop saying "What's up guys" at the beginning of youtube videos. Such a overused and tacky phrase. LED lights can be installed/converted easily post purchase if you want them. I wonder how many people buy this vehicle brand new and pay for it over the next 5 years? I bought my first rental house for 90K. I'll be looking at used ones in a couple more years.

The new expeditions are just gorgeous vehicles! We are leasing a 2019 XLT and my wife loves it.
Same. Initially I wanted the Suburban, but not enough comfortable interior space
‘09 EL/Max here. I use it as my contractor work truck, and love/use all the cargo space behind drivers seat. Would like to do TRUE off-road packages, but with independent suspensions, best that can be done is restrictive bigger tires.
I love my Expedition Max, lots of space , very comfortable. One of my friends said she feels like, she is in an aeroplane.
They went from the 5.4 v8 to the 3.5 six cylinder - wish they would have put the 5.0 v8 in it without all the turbo chargers on it. Nice review.
The one thing that all reviewers should mention is the average price paid or typical deals and rebates.

Michael Blevins glad to hear it! You’ve got yourself a nice ride and I hope you continue to enjoy it!
Hey. Do you still have the car ?
This changes alot for myself honestly, now I know that if i chooses to get this brand then I might as well get a bigger SUV with lesser issues

Good offering from Ford. This Expedition is definitely going to be a good seller despite the competition
Hikmatullah for sure! Thanks for stopping by! 👍
@@PrimeAutotainment Anytime buddy!
The XLT is optioned out about the same. Love my 2019 so far.

Sounds good to me just let me know! 👍
Love your reviews. Honest and great takes.
jagsfanrick thank you very much! 👍
Have a 2020 Expedition Max and your review was right on!
Guys please go and finance it for $70 K .I will let you take the butt kick,then i buy it for $20 K in the auction after a few years.
I like LED on my vehicle but not when they are behind me (usually). :).
I own one. The rubber around the passenger windows is already warping. Unacceptable for a $70k SUV.
Ah dang 😕. I’m sorry to hear that!
Oh my, we are about to buy one tomorrow. 😢
Have the dealership replace the seals. ???

How was your MPG the entire week that you had it? I totally agree with you it’s very very very expensive for a Expedition
Ahmad Al Ameer I averaged right around 20mpg with mixed driving...not trying to get good mileage either. Thanks for watching as always! 👍
Prime Autotainment exactly it’s a big SUV
I have one 18 ltd without the 22s and ccd. I will comment on your likes and dislikes:

Great review bro, i own one since over a year, your points are spot on 👌🏻
Amazing review. And there's no V8 anymore.
How does to compare to the Kia Telluride which is much cheaper?
Cecile Zimmer I actually haven’t been in the new Telluride yet, sorry!
Loaded Telluride is about what an entry-level Expedition is. But the Expedition is a much better vehicle long term. It's the industry standard.
I think it wouldn´t be a fair comparison , first of all the the size category! in and out, and many other important comparison parameters such as engine type and size, off-road ability, tow capacity, ... I think the two are not comparable, they differ from each other in so many ways.

Do you recommend me to buy it ??

It’s really fun to drive I’ve had it for six months now all black with black rims… Pretty cool .. a lot of technology in it!!
Prime Autotainment thanks dear.
Once thing is am trying to get a custom wrap for the car.. so can it hold up magnets so i order some for holding up my wrap wheil i work with it while i do my thing with the heat gun.
I didn't like that the front cupholders are such a long reach for the driver.
Who doesn't want to feel "floaty" 😆
Lol I hear ya. No doubt it’s comfortable!
Does anyone know how to do where to buy the upgraded headlights not just the whole led bulbs but the daytime running light the whole assembly and is it plug and play ?
Why didn’t you mention the lack of a v8
Because it doesn't matter. The TT V6 is a beast and outperforms all the naturally aspirated V8's the others offer.
The grill looks straight outta 2008
..demand are out of scales
I just got a exact same one as yours It is only one bothering me that a kind of noisy sound is able to be heard when engine starts at beginning seconds It is normal or do you have same feeling?
I’m not exactly sure what sound you’re hearing...what type of sound is it?
@@PrimeAutotainment Sounds like engine exhaust
adew dew I saw another RUclips video where the guy had that problem and it ended up after weeks in the shop being a lemon law case and he got his money back. I’m hoping that problem doesn’t start with my Expedition because I love it.
Wow the Chevy Tahoe LS is cheaper
I own a first gen expedition!
Me too
How reliable and long lasting will this twin turbo engine be for the long run?
Only time will tell...they’ve been making it for a while now but I’m not sure what to expect mileage wise
@@PrimeAutotainment I have a feeling Ford will put a V8 in it when Chevy launches the next Tahoe/Suburban!
Nirav Gajjar I hope so! 🤞
Dude their sooo expensive though...
Your five likes are agreeable.
You're five dislikes you should have never put up there because they are ridiculous those are minor fixes that people can do on their own that is not something you want to put on there driving down the road.
Number one don't drive on the road.
Number two you can't see over your left shoulder , you can you can buy the little adjustment mirrors at an auto store.
And number three when did halogen lamps and led become the most impossible thing that you cannot change on your own.
Dude get your shit together before you make another video
Here’s a rebuttal:
- Transmission - it’s not smooth. It’s very inconsistent and has rough shifts. It shouldn’t be like that.
- floaty ride - very minor because it’s still comfortable, but certain roads and areas it will feel like you don’t have adequate control of such a big vehicle
- expensive - that one explains itself
- huge B pillar - yes, you can buy extra little blind spot mirrors…but hardly anyone does. Sometimes a blind spot monitor is t reliable and nothing beats looking over your shoulder for safe lane changes
- halogen headlights - they’re terrible. If you out LEDs into typical reflector halogen housings…you’ll blind everyone. Hence why so many people hate LEDs. Many people out them in the wrong housings and it sprays light everywhere. I’m not asking you to agree with me, I’m just letting people know. You don’t have to like it
@@PrimeAutotainment you are very correct, I admire your composed and mature response, me I’m looking forward to get a used 2019 expedition, given that the vehicle is so high, I’m hoping to get one with over 80k miles on it atleast , that way I’m sure the pricing with take a bow 😆, I really love this car, my car preference have always been conform, space, and an intimidating appearance , there is no gain saying that this vehicle clearly embodies all these qualities, you are basics driving a truck and an SUV at the same time
But why do y'all Expedition/Navigator owners hate on us Flex owners?
Who said anything about the Flex lol
I have nothing against it
@@PrimeAutotainment Naw not saying you but in general whenever i cross paths with one of the two owners they almost ALWAYS have to test me lolz. Idk if they dont think i cam keep up but they're always surprised.
Gotchya lol. I hear ya...I’ve never been in a flex but I’m glad to know you seem happy with it!
This video had 5 dislikes too...
Please stop saying "What's up guys" at the beginning of youtube videos. Such a overused and tacky phrase. LED lights can be installed/converted easily post purchase if you want them. I wonder how many people buy this vehicle brand new and pay for it over the next 5 years? I bought my first rental house for 90K. I'll be looking at used ones in a couple more years.
Made of aluminum body and priced too high. Those are my gripes.
Just buy a Tahoe

You say this thing can fit 8 people yet 99 percent of the time 1 person will be in this tank. SUVs are such a waste of money.
I hear ya. HOWEVER, at my age I am getting sick of being practical. My heart yearns for one. Can't afford it. I get one when its 3 years old.
