Expedition - 1999 Red Eddie Bauer 4wd — Love the space and the power, the heated seats for winter and the great color and style of the Eddie Bauer. We bought this one 9 years old with less that 90k and it's just like a new one to us and we love it. It has been a bit of a gas eater, but well worth the $4000 we paid for it.

Good Quality, Fun To Drive, And Very Big Suv — The ford expedition is a fun SUV to drive. It is so high off the ground that I can see the roof of an explorer. Performance wise it is very good. I haven't had to do much work on it. It is incredibly easy to do oil changes on. My expedition has the eddie bauer trim package ( leather seats , sunroof and 6cd changer in the armrest.) MPG really stink , it only gets about 13, but it is very safe and makes driving in winter a breeze. The only real issue I have had with the expedition is the rough shift . When the engine RPMs are high the gear shifts feel vaguely like being kicked by a mule; but that problem can be avoided by relatively slow acceleration.

I Truly Love My 2 Expeditions — I just got this Expedition as a package deal with a van I bought for work. It was fairly inexpensive with low enough mileage (150,000 km) and little work that needs to be done. The performance is impressive, not as good as my 2006 Expedition, but this will still pass with no problem on the highways. The acceleration is pretty good considering what a behemoth this truck is, Braking is very good since it has brand new brakes, and handling is average for a truck this size. The build quality is very nice, though like my 2006, the interior is sort of bland and I will be purchasing wood dash kits for both once I find time. So far there are no rattles or squeaks, or there are and my love of the high quality sound system is drowning them out. The exterior is nice and modern looking, but I will be changing the color as I do not like the green, and it needs a few small repairs for scuffs and some surface rust, but that is to be expected for an 11 year old vehicle. Interior is very nice, and I find everything is better placed than in my 2006. I will also be purchasing 2 back up cameras for my Expeditions because they are both difficult to park! The gas mileage could be better, and the maintenance has been good so far. It is pretty fun to drive, I love the sound of the Triton V8 engine when I press the gas, and I love the sound system. Overall this is a very nice SUV, and I would recommend it and the 2006 to anyone. Thanks for reading my review and checking out my ride, I hope this will be helpfull. Cheers

Great Family Ride For Those Of Us Who Don't Like Minivans — This is the 2nd one I've had and I really enjoy driving something big and powerful. The ease of getting the family in and out is also great and they all have room.

Great Vehicle! — The expedition is a great vehicle. It is a great handler, hauler, and driver. It handles any weather conditions, can always be relied on to start, and is well recognized. Easily hauls a family or car of friends, or you can put down the second row, take out the third row, and you have a 6'6" truck bed for any needs. Very versatile, functional vehicle. Only down side to me is gas mileage.

Eye Catching — Great SUV, lots of room,seats up to eight passengers comfortably. Lots of horse power and sounds great with upgraded exhaust and air intake system. Very low maintenance needed, very dependable transportation for local or long distance traveling. This SUV rides and handles nicely with upgraded shocks, wheels and tires.

Love My Expe! — Love this car for size-roomy driver seating, plus the roomy passenger space. Also love the look of the Expedition in general! Don't like the gas guzzler that it is. I have driven it to Florida twice from Michigan and it was AWESOME!

Great Suv To Have! — •Performance - acceleration, braking, handling •Build Quality - Great •Appearance - both interior and exterior styling I do like •Cost of Ownership - gas mileage for an 8 seater 14-22mpg is fine with me, maintenance cost are low. little repairs needed 164,000 miles on it! •Fun Factor- not a fun car to drive but a comfortable one.
