Do you get cooled seat in the F150 or are they ventilated
Basil mobake I feel that they are the same blowing are throughout the seat is it being cooled air con or not that how I feel
Basil mobake: cooled
love your reviews
Did you hear about ford designing a new 7.0L V8 gas for the Super Duty and maybe the raptor? I've only seen 1 video on that and they guy only thought ford was. Just wondering if you have heard anything??
They need a 3/4 or one ton version with a 6.7 diesel. Many large families wanting to pull large toys. Bring back the excursion.
Bring back the 7.3 excursions! Those were the best suvs ever made
We just bought a 2013 Expedition EL for $19,500. Granted it has a little more miles than I wanted, but it is very loaded with everything but sunroof! In 4 years we will probably upgrade to a 2018 with 30-50k miles for $24k or less. SUV’s just don’t hold the value that a truck will hold at the same sticker price.
did u end up buying it? especially how the market is right now, did you end uo getting it for the price you wanted to?
@@rigobertogarza7945 we did buy it. Still have it. It’s running great. Since Covid the market has changed and the values are better and we have no plans to buy a different one any time soon.
I've owned two Expeditions . Never again after I replaced the last one with a Tahoe ! Tahoes or Suburbans all-day everyday from now on!! what a difference !!! Merry Christmas and happy New year .
like a rock actually my friend I have driven and Rode in both and for the drive the expedition was way quicker and tho rated at 1 mpg better it achieved 5 better mpg. Your over priced trains are inferior to this aluminum space ship
Dreysen Lindgren it sounds to me like you're making up stories !I highly doubt you got better gas mileage, if you did you were going downhill the whole trip! my Expeditions used to get 14 miles to the gallon, 2 when I would pull a trailer they were a joke! I'll never own a vehicle again that you can't get the spark plugs out of and the cam phasers and exhaust manifolds blow every other year!! enjoy your make-believe aluminum spaceship on your way to Mars!!! blue oval boy! don't let the Avatar fool you I've owned them both and I learned the hard way!
@@jpatt973 What year was your Expedition?
@@ericfraley 1998, 2008
Very nice. I got my wife the 2018 Navigator a few weeks ago. Slick rig.
Nice video. I am not a truck owner so I am attracted to this kinda unit. It looks like Ford has put a lot of effort into redesigning the 2018 Expedition. I gotta admit I just didn't like the look of the 2017 Expedition but love the look of the new one.
I think I have mentioned in the past, we saw this vehicle at the Oklahoma State Fair, and my wife fell in love with it. We are both pretty much sold on it already, especially after your review. We are going to trade our Navigator off later in the year after the first run of productions are out. Thanks, and a great job covering features and comparing to the previous model.
Great video. Love that you compared the 2 trucks. Really shows how much the 2018 has changed and how much ford was commuted to compete in this segment
Wow the inconveniences of 2017..like living in the stone age I suppose
this is great, but I'm just sitting here wondering when someone's gonna splice a new expedition and super duty together to create a new excursion. you know it's possible.
Damien Probé I'm hoping C.A.B.T is gonna make one, they said they are looking into it. If you don't know who I'm talking about the just check out their TH-cam channel. search "custom autos by tim"
with v8!!
Jerry Cannon, V10 not V8
Really wish they still made it in a King Ranch. Had a 2010 King Ranch and loved it. Loved the King Ranch so much we got an F150 King Ranch.
Yes i do like the 2018 Expedition, but no 22" wheels for me, in Michigan we need the tall sidewall for cushion.
I like how you really took the extra time to explain EVERYTHING in full detail about every feature this vehicle has to offer. Very well thought out and well spoken review. I always enjoy taking the time to watch them, that being said your reviews are what made me buy my 2017 XLT Superduty. Thank you
Comparison with the old model gives this review that additional edge. Good job
here in sweden the most popular suv by far is the volvo xc60 and they have already sold over 40k this year
A few in my family have volvos, Xc60 And Xc90. The Xc90 is a great vehicle.
Great video! THX! I Recently moved from a 17 F350 Platinum 6.7 to a 18 Expedition Platinum. Absolutely love it. Drives 2/3rds its size, quiet, comfy, yet sporty with the 22" wheels and Sport Mode. The CCD electronic active suspension is marvelous, comfort when u want and sporty on tap. Corners pretty flat in Sport mode. Double side window and windshield glass keeps and effective insulation keeps noise out too. Independant front and rear suspension makes a huge difference. Interior leg room in all 3 rows is class leading - back row tilts too. Unusually large array of stellar safety features. Rear pass door handle touch sensors are great. Wife is 5' 2" and loves driving it.
Some nit picks: Middle row seat tilt forward access a bit heavy and can bind a bit mid slide, electric seat row fold is a bit slow, non Max version cargo space behind upright 3rd row is small, need mud flaps for significant tire spray, hatch foot sensor unreliable and flakey, bumper tow hitch area looks bad when cover removed, spend too much time washing it because it looks so damp nice (pearl white paint), gotta set aside lots of time most times out as so many people want to talk about the Expedition :).
Overall, best all around vehicle I've ever owned/driven.
Something like the Audi Virtual Cockpit would be cool. :) I like the idea of having the navigation info directly in front of me instead of having to look to the side.
this vehicle is way ahead of the current gm lineup. Think a better competitor is the toyota land cruiser - tops out at 85 grand, but can easily get 10k below msrp since such a low volume truck. land cruiser wins on reliability, off road capability, and resale. expedition wins on tech/luxury, mpg and cargo capacity. If it were my $ i'd get a fully loaded expedition xlt fx4 and save nearly 15 grand. SUVs in this class are getting way too overpriced...
Both very nice I've driven both and honestly I feel like the build Quality on the older one is better
Agreed
YOU HAVE TO DO THE 2018 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR RESERVE!!!!! NO ONE ELSE DOES DETAILED REVIEWS LIKE YOU
I have the pro-trailer backup assist in my 16 F-150 and I personally don't care for it. Then again I drive a semi for a living. Kind of takes some getting used to if you are used to backing a trailer without it. It limits how tight you can back a trailer though. Not trying to talk bad about it, but due to my personal experience with trailers I don't see a use for it.
With $77k price tag, a lot of car buyers here in S.California would go to Lexus, MB, BMW or Audi which are dominating in Luxury SUV market.
Pocha S exactly and don't forget range rover and plus I don't think many would be thinking about a ford expedition to be honest
The tiny Luxury SUV market maybe. This is a full size SUV...not a small Unibody type SUV.
Jeremiah Hughes : MB GLS, Audi Q8 all uni-body, obviously not small SUVs. Numbers of GLS sold was 4 times bigger than Lincoln.
The 2018 platinum looks impressive, but honestly all expedition I've ever seen were XLTs with the minimal features that trim offers. People opt for higher trims on GM SUVs but this might change with the new model.
Standard equipment?? For $76000 they better be standard. There shouldn't be much options left
The reason I wouldn't want the feature turning the engine off at a stop light is the wear and tear on the motor every time it starts. The oils is in the pan not being circulated. The more unnecessary starts the more wear. My opinion anyway. At least it can be left off if you don't want it.
The 2018 is gorgeous. And for $20,000 more, it should be.
I really like these new body style's of the 2018 Ford Expedition.
This Expedition looks much better than the prior year version. Really great review. Thanks for taking us along on the test drive. I think the AutoStop and Start feature might bother people a little bit more than usual in warmer climates because long idle times without cold A/C in high ambient temperatures is definitely no bueño.
Thanks for sharing!
This is a seriously good video man. I love your attention to your details especially for passengers.
Once again great video very informative I hope you can do one with a Lincoln Navigator
Really enjoy your review's, always learn a great amount of information
I wish they would offer the raptor motor in this like they do in the new navigator.
So glad they went with the dual gauge display. The explorer single Center gauge always bothered me.
You should review a Tesla model x. I would love to see your review style on one of those especially a lower end model under 100,000
Robby Morton m sure there are guys more suited to review a battery car, I don’t think he’s as knowledgeable as other guys in that area.
nobody cares about Tesla
Interior on the 17 looks way nicer than the outside of the vehicle lol
2 things that were missed. 1. Is that the platinum trim version has 400 hp and 480 torque instead of the standard 375 and 470.
2. The 22 inch wheel option comes with a different suspension, I don't know or remember all the details on it but there are at least 3 different ride/drive selections or modes to choose from. Such as soft, normal and sport.
The reason why people don't like the start stop feature while driving from what I can gather is because on a hot day when ur vehicle stops running so does the a/c or vice versa the heat
Comprehensive. Nice review.
The 2017 model of that SUV looks like the XL model of the 2018 there is a big difference in the two. So the 2018 Expedition you were doing the review on is parked in your driveway.
I have a 2015 Fusion. I have looked at a 2017 Fusion, but I can't stand that dainty shifter knob. I like the feel of an actual gear shifter.
Kevin Thomas: I've had both the 2010 and 2013 Fusion and now a 2018 Fusion. I would prefer a shifter also, but you get use to the dial
I would love to see these hvac controls, rotatory shifter, electric parking, etc....carry over to the super duty platinum. Believe or not the rotary shifter is much safer. I have one in my dodge and love it. Oh and the front parking sensors.
Anyone else been bombarded by 2018 expedition youtube ads and finally decided to check it out?
Wow actually like the white paint and black leather .....
Thumbs up. Be nice if you could get all this for $20,000 less.
Robert even back in the day these were $30,000+
It starts at $49000
😎🇺🇸👍 Hey Buddy! Nice SUV great review thanks 🙏🏽
Love the channel but with This particular video I wasn’t sure if you were reviewing the vehicle or trying to sell it to me.
Seems like he is trying to justify why he likes the 18 over the 17 i didnt like the video sounds more complaining 🤔
Yeah I get that…I don’t sub to this channel anymore anyway….
So.....concerning that the sunroof shakes that much? Or is the mount just that loose? Lol
People are not concerned about idle time as much as they’re concerned about starter and timing chain. Constant start stop it’s not good for longevity for internal parts
Two good reviews, just wish you change the camera angle. Would like to see the ride from another view in order to see how the vehicles handle the road.
Great review....my only criticism is constructive....people looking at a luxury SUV are most likely NOT stepping out of a "Big Truck"....the references seem irrelevant to me personally .... otherwise Great Job!
Hey buddy! Tell your wife not to be spoiled with the Lexus brand and strongly consider this SUV.
VERY nice, but I confess I'm astonished that they STILL haven't provided an integrated dashcam. You have multiple cameras providing all-angle coverage yet apparently no ability to save the camera video onto a memory card. For years, dashcam video has been accepted as evidence in court and by insurance companies and I've used it myself, to my great benefit, in that context . So, people wanting to protect themselves from the mistakes of others will once again have to add on their own aftermarket products, with all associated wiring and installation hassles that goes along with it. Would you have any idea why, after all these years of dashcams being wildly popular worldwide, they still aren't offering it from the manufacturers?
UPDATE: According to CNET, the Cadillac CT6 has built-in dashcam capability...and this article is from 2016
www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/cadillac-ct6s-surround-view-cameras-can-act-like-a-dashcam/
Are we looking at your new car? Merry Christmas.
Beautiful for 70 grand. But at 77 it's within a shout of the 80 grand for a navigator with toys. And the 6.2 v8 GM only get one mpg less. One. Less hp and a terrible exhaust note for 1 mpg.
ya but the Expedition has a better 3rd row seat, more luxurias, and better tech. nobody buys an suv for the exhaust note, it's a family vehicle and nobody will care at the end of the day.
No it isnt.
A Navigator "with toys" costs 100 grand.
Love both parts of this video series. I really wish they would have the Coyote 5.0 V-8 as an option but I understand. I wonder if you could drop it in since it shares many of the F 150 parts. 🤔
Also the GMC SUV is the Yukon. The Denali is the top of the line version. Please keep up the great content!
When you have a SUV or full-size SUV it doesn't matter if you have the best gas mileage or tolerating for me I prefer the max tow rating I don't care about the gas mileage and plus when you have a max tow package like a Dodge Durango that has a max tow package and you can get up to 10000 pounds and 392 rear end with a nine and a half inch ring gear better than the expedition
Raul Bueno Durango 392 ftw
merry christmas and a happy new years
How about a review of a Jeep 🚙 TrackHawk or Durango SRT too!
Leonard Russo he should i feel he should do the summit term for jeep
Ummm the Lincoln Navigator sounds a bit better being that it has the high output engine that that raptor has.
Great truck, but for the price I would get the Lincoln Navigator any day
I love everything except that Rotary Knob for the transmission. After that Hollywood accident in the Jeep, it scares me. I see Jeep went back to the regular shifter bar.
That guy didnt really put it in parking, he rushed.
I drive 2017 ram 1500 with the knob shifter , ones shift in to drive ,it Locks in place ,it is safety .
The point on Rotary Shifters in going to Park, Easy to think you are in Park and you are actually in Reverse.
Would also like to know your thoughts on the Navigator. If you haven't done so. Thanks.
Another great video. I’d love to get one of these off a lease in say 3 years. What do you think a model such as this would depreciate too given three years old at 45-50k
Them ford pay checks must be nice. You had me going till you said 20 to 30 more luxury features more then the Lexus. I'm not saying it dont have more but really 20 to 30.
Can the forward facing camera be set to automatically turn on , like when pulling into a parking lot, or wherever? I assume the 3rd row seats fold down and would have liked to have seen how much room you have when they are down, or removed. Could you for a 4x8 sheet of plywood in the back with the tailgate closed? I can't remember if you said whether or not this comes in all wheel drive or not. I could almost consider this over another Platinum Crewcab F150.
Looking at getting a 2017 platinum to towing a forester Surveyor 295qble with a Hensley hitch. What’s your thought on that set up?
Waiting for 2019 model for top gear.
I don't care about idle time. I'm worried about starter replacement too soon
I love them but hate the prices.
Maybe power stroke in Expedition?
You are completely incorrect
but lets be honest , the V8 did sound pretty good .
Have to say - less excited to see an SUV review. But merry Christmas anyhow!
For that kind of $$$ where's the "autonomous level two" self steering like some of the competition now has? (Super Cruise, Pilot Assist, etc. etc). Just say'n.
What temperature was it first time I seen pants.
Road Trip!
you should do a review on a 2017 jeep summit or a 2018 dodge Durango srt
2017 model look like is little bit better for offroad. isn't it??
GMC Yukon , Denali is the trim level
This.
In the 1st part video and this video that drove me nuts.
As nice as this is all it is, an excursion but a modern version with an ecoboost the same exact dimensions less towing capacity (due to engine) and same room as far as seating and trunk space but a modern update of it
The old expedition is still better than the old and even new GMC Yukon
20 mpg is impressive to him must have never heard of BMW,Mercedes,jeep,Audi,range rove
V Moore: Find any of those in a full size SUV....oh wait...there isn't one
Big Truck Big RV you have a point
well then again most of those companies are planning 3 row in the future
Comfort name of the game,
All of the new 8 & 10 speed transmissions I've driven seem to really lug the engines down bad.
+Reklaw: can you clarify?
Big Truck Big RV Sure, my wife has a new Acura MDX with a 9 speed & my buddy has a 10 in his new F150. I’ve driven both extensively & they both run at such low RPM’s, the trans are constantly searching for the right gear. When they do find the correct gear or get in high gear, the engines are lugged down so low at that point then it has no power if needed. When you have to pass someone or get yourself out of a bad situation, it has to down shift & drop so many gears that there’s a hesitation and when it finds the correct gear they tend to have a herky jerky jump much more than the traditional 5 or 6 speed autos. Just my opinion from putting some miles behind these new multi-geared transmissions
8 speed Ram 1500 here. I totally agree. Too many gears.
Pass On This Fix It Over & Over Just skin Deep For $$$$ Pass On The mortgage payment Too
2005 expedition rules :)
The big wheel diameters don’t look good at all! Can you say Wagon Wheel. Mark my words: This fad of large wheel diameters will end the same way disco clothing did. What, we thought that was cool?! Wow, we were high during those years.
I’m sorry 😐 but both GMC & Chevy now offer the 6.2 V8 in their SUV ‘s ! I’m not paying that kind of money for some twin turbo V6 garbage! Try doing a review of the new Chevy RST Tahoe please?
Leonard Russo them turbo's are going to broken after probably 10 to 15 years no one's going to know how to take care of them
V Moore If I’m spending that much cash 💰 I’ll gladly take the the GM 6.2 or Dodges 6.4 V8 thank you 😊
In 10 to 15 years the tech will be totally different..like with the modern age here and with our planet suffering higher output engines with smaller displacements will be ideal. I honestly think if more small diesels were made that would be better than any gas v8s
The Ecoboost has been out for almost 8 years. It has proven very reliable. Ford went to a turbo on their diesel trucks in 94 and they are still going. Techs adapt so they can work on vehicles.
The twin turbo V6 on this bad boy is way faster then them v8s
Lmao i bought a 2017 kingranch for 31grand new.... compared to the 2018 for 60 grand.... so i chose a according to you uglier truck for 30 grand less im happy
Just do a 7.3 swap.
I like the 2017. 2018 is too bulky
Expedition 2017 80%
Expedition 2018 20%
All they did was try to copy the Chevy Tahoe.
Who in the world can afford these prices? I'll stick with my 2010 explorer!
like everybody does,lease it or buy pre owned
2017's and earlier look better, more truck-like. The 2018+ Expeditions look like giant Asian minivans...
This sucks. I've just purchased a 2017 Expedition EL
For that money hell no
It's nice but cannot compare to the lexus lx 570 and not on the same planet as the 2018 infiniti qx 80
+1topgorgon: That's where the Navigator comes in. And yes, it is definitely on or above those two on the playing field. As we have owned both the Lexus LX570 and QX80. The QX80 was underwelming.
Big Truck Big RV underwhelming as far as performance or with the outdated tech?
my 2012 sequoia with 5.7 gets 20mpg.
repairvehicle no way no how
agger732, when I bought Sequoia used, first thing I did is switched to 100% synthetic engine oil, gear oil and my fuel economy went up instantly.
In you dreams buddy.
Korrin Petersen, I have proof on my channel. before and after.
For comparison, a 2002 Sequoia, 2 wheel drive, 5.7 is rated 13 city, 18 highway. This 2018 Ford Expedition (2 wheel drive) is rated 17 city, 24 highway.
