What Ford Expedition do most buyers choose?

The Ford Expedition years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

Higher-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, mileage, and price combination. They also tend to attract shoppers who want newer features while still staying within a used-car budget.

What is the Ford Expedition's resale value?

Most model years in the Expedition lineup are down year over year, and several recent years show especially sharp double-digit drops. That pattern can work in your favor if you want a newer full-size SUV and prefer to let the first owner absorb the steepest part of the price decline. A few older years are changing more slowly, which can make them feel steadier in the used market.

The 2016, 2023, and 2015 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
