Once again, the 1999 Ford Expedition attracted buyers faster than Ford could get the vehicles off the line. The full-size SUV proved tremendously popular, and there was very little tinkering with the successful formula for the 1999 model year.
As in previous years, two trim levels were available for the '99 Expedition: XLT and Eddie Bauer. Even though the XLT was the entry-level model, it still shipped with plenty of snazzy features as part of its standard equipment (power everything, fog lights, separate heat/cool controls for front and back, and various other goodies). The Eddie Bauer trimline offered rugged luxury as part of its basic package, including leather upholstery, captain's-chair seats, and high-end interior detailing.
Why was the '99 Ford Expedition so popular? At 17 feet long, it actually fit into garages, parking spaces, and the like with greater ease than other full-size sport-utility vehicles like the bulky Dodge Durango. Drivers and reviewers alike praised its relative agility. And people looking for roomy interiors and big cargo space found what they sought in the 1999 Expedition, which seats 7 adults (9 with optional third-row seating), and has 120 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
The one change Ford did make for the 1999 Expedition was to up the power in its Triton V-8 engines. Buyers could choose a 4.6 liter overhead cam V8 with 240 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque, or upgrade to a 5.4 liter version with 260 horsepower and a whopping 350 lb.-ft. of torque.
I have a Expedition with a 5.4 engine. At idle my short term is -0 to - 4. & at Long term both banks read -14. While I am driving my short term is +1 to -3. My Long terms are at 0 & my mileage goes up. I have changed just about everything trying to figure this out. Can someone please give me some insight on this? Thanks!
My first Ford Expedition. It is a 1999 Eddie Bauer fully loaded carrying 121,000 miles. No license plates, no title and no battery when purchased and to top it all off the chk susp light was on. After reading the manual, I have located the switch then tentatively pushed, pulled and feeling around for an actual switch I realized that I was afraid that I'd break something. The service engine soon light is also on but I cannot use by OBD reader because I'm almost out of gas.; True story, I did not find out about the locking gas cap until I pulled into a gas station. 7 miles til empty. No kidding. This is fun. Thank you in advance.
My 1999 Ford expedition was moth balled for a year or two before I ended up with it. Is there a hot air intake? I've disinfected the AC cold air intake and that runs clean, but when I turn on the heat I can still smell a mouse nest somewhere inside the vents. Any advice on how to resolve this?
I have a 99 expedition 4wd, I have changed all the rotors, pads severe duty, master cylinder, have manually & power bled the lines & still feel there is not much stopping power. I have done the checks on power booster & it checks out. 21 " of vacuum to booster. I tow a boat with this so the brakes have to be good. Does anyone think it could be the booster still? Or please give me your input, it would be very much appreciated!!!!
My Ford expedition back end is hang low like the compressor is not filling the air bags and the battery is going dead every 2 days and when turning SUV off very strong gas smell
