This is my 3rd Expedition and by far
this is the worst in quality. This is a
complete rattle trap. We have had
mirrors replaced, motors replaced, ash
trays replaced, front ent taken off -
reassembled and re-installed, insulation
added to doors. Molding in rear replaced
due to coming apart. Re-tweeked and
re-tweeked and still cannot fix the
passenger side doors from rattling. When
speaking with sales and management at
Ford, all I get is "Yours must have been
made on either a Monday or Friday".
Now Ford says that it could be a hot/cold
flexing problem which may not be repaired.
After the 5th time in the shop, Ford
Corp wont even call me back.

I had a Chevy Suburban for 10 years and
loved it. Purchased a nearly new 2000
Ford Expedition, and missed the cargo
room and the third passenger seating
right away! We test drove and searched
for the right vehicle for 5 months!! I
was going back to the Chevy Suburban or
Tahoe and realized the brakes have not
been impvoved, as the Ford Brakes stop
on a dime! No spongy feel! I also liked
the idea of having my cargo room when
needed, and my third passenger seating
for my family who are 6'2" and need the
leg and head room to ride comfortably!
Excellent selling point for Ford as
Chevy has yet to address those issues.

This is my fourth Expedition since
1997. All of the previous Exp's I have
had were subject to severe service and
were completely reliable.
The chassis and frame are much
stiffer offering a bank vault solid
body feel. The fit and finish of body
panels and interior appointments is
excellent. I highly recommend the
larger 5.4 liter engine with the 3.73
limited slip axle ratio and the HD
trailer tow package.

Ford has done a good job on the interior
and the exterior design. Handling is
much improved over the '98 and '01 I
previously drove, especially the
steering. There is much less of what I
would describe as a "whip-crack" motion
in the '04, when taking curves or
changing lanes. Braking is still great,
but Ford needs to fix the brake dust
issue. The new interior design is
comfortable and easy to use. The front
seats are more comfortable, and storage
is better, as the CD Changer is in the
dash. I do miss the inbound storage
pockets. You can't use the DVD system
and the sat. radio at the same time (bad
on long drives). For extreme temp.
areas, consider the climate seats.

Did not want to go back to Ford due to
past vehicles with shoddy workmanship.
50 - 70k seemed to be all they were
good for (Vs. 217k for a toyota van
that never needed any major repair).
Could not find an acceptable seating
configuration and cargo area with the
Sequoia, Escalade, Armada. Cargo room
in minivans were a joke. This vehicle
is great fun to drive with family of 5
+ friends. My ONLY complaints about
this vehicle are the horrible gas
mileage (currently getting about 11 mpg
around town) and the break dust on the
front wheels that constanltly keep the
wheels looking like I just drove out
from a coal road.
