This is a great land yacht for local and extended travel. Great center seat for my Grandson, third row has been folded down since day one. Comparing to previous Eddie Bauer 2007 Explorer it gets better mileage, faster off the line with a touch of the petal, and suspension comfort settings make for easy bumps. Super Siruis radio. Back up camera works well. I SHOULD HAVE PURCHASED THE EL MODEL. AS I USE IT THE BACK SEATS ARE DOWN TO PROVIDE FOR CARGO ROOM. EASY DRIVING, no blind spots, great a/c front and back, BUT NO TIE-DOWN HOOKS IN BACK FOR CHILD SEAT OR CARGO.

I owned a 2004 Expedition until I bought the 2017 Platinum, I was concerned about the change to the V-6 turbo from the traditional Expedition V-8, as I had recently driven the Mercedes GLS450 which has a similar V-6 engine and I found it to be tentative and doggy off the line. The Expedition is anything but that... responsive, light on its feet, powerful, it exceeded my expectations. The interior is well done and extremely comfortable. Suspension is sportier than my 2004 Expedition's, it's perfect. It's a beautiful car/truck, with plenty of room. I test drove it and knew immediately I had to get it.

Constantly in the shop

Every year or so the accelerator just stops working and the car shutters to a stop. It goes into limp mode. It has happened four different times, and been replaced four different times. Each time the Ford shop looks at the car mystified for several weeks until they are able to recreate the shutoff. Yesterday, the brake caliper came loose. My car is constantly in the shop and so unreliable. I have an extended warranty, but I have spent sooo much on the deductible payments. Don’t buy this car.
