these so called "monsters" are actually easier to drive than your given sedan or crossover because you can see out of them so much better (in my opinian)
@navigator2637 I agree, thats the thing I like about school buses, they have big sideview mirrors and mirrors in the front you can see all around you easy to drive imo. unlike your avg passenger sedan that has small mirrors and poor visability
I love my expedition 1998 I put 26' rims on it and its sitting on the side of my house it needs a new trans for the second time.. it has 180k on it.. I sure do miss driving it
my dads friend had the same car but one night a car crashed into the headlight.Which made the truck fliped off the highway and crashed and died .He was skylifted away but the time was around 4am his name was micheal.So this is why you should watch out on turns like that on 4:00-4:12. so yeah
the 5.4 is a solid and decent engine, but it's way to underpower for a 5,500 lb SUV, and take on the 4WD components, and the air ride suspension, and you have a 5,900 lb SUV........it gets this big tank rolling tho.....slowly lol
@kendrickevans301 lol, didn't Ford put the 4.6 in these too, and the 5.4 in Excursions and F-350s? Must of been abysmal! and I thought these were supposed to be able to tow heavy trailers!
@abram7117 it can tow heavy trailer, it has good low end torque to get anything heavy rolling, it just won't get there snappy fast, but yes indeed it can tow really heavy trailer, in 1998 about 7,900 lbs of it lol
@somekidwithanm4 yep.......we've had a 98,2000,2006, and a 2011 over the years and we tow at least 9,000 lbs every weekend with them......we have a superduty but it tows another trailer that is 11,000 lbs daily.....expy's will get the job done
of corse it drive smooth. its got the air bag suspension. haha im just glad mine dosent have it. too much of a hassle if something goes out or breaks.
@youngb1ood the rear has bags and the front has air shocks. same difference. im just glad mine dosent have it. if something goes out on it then your tracing a problem. unless your lucky and a bag pops.
@mrjabr1995 230 hp 325 torque. in 99-02 it was bumped up a little to 260 hp 345 torque. also the engine was called "triton" cause modular had a bad rep in the past so they named it to "triton". its a SOHC engine. 2 cams. one on each head. these tanks can go for ever. some even 300K+.
@mrjabr1995 nope. thats it. i have a 98. so i should know. its really not that much power for these tanks. thats why the mileage is soo bad. if there was more power then the mileage would be increased. just dont over do the power then your just power and no mileage.
@98offroadFORDexpo Yeah these trucks are underpowered if anything, the new Ford trucks with 5.0 have alot more power then these 5.4's and get better gas mileage. These 5.4's get these big beast moving but is strained with little-no reserve power and thus gas mileage is abysmal.
@98offroadFORDexpo yep, i have a 2011 king ranch expy right now, but i had a 2000 and that thing had 327,000 miles on it, just changed the oil, 5w30 in winter and 10w30 in summer, air filter furl filters and tune ups....
@24fan48fan you pull on the handle the door opens. haha no what do you mean? the big handles on top are to pull the door closed. the latch handles are below that below the window switch.
i used to run away from cars that have high mileage but now i'm starting to see that sometimes mileage really doesn't mean all that much..but are there any cars that generally don't do well with high mileage? or is it all up to the owner's care for the vehicle?
The only thing I hate about these older expeditions is the 3rd row. Very uncomfortable! Anyway, I like the color, but I like my moms Sequoia better! I have always been an SUV guy, and like full sized ones the best! Sounds great!
lol, what an odd place you live in. first you drive through a really nice, clean neighborhood. then you make like a single turn into the ghetto. then you end up in the woods :P
i have a 1997 expedition (blue) it's one hell of a car , and i was just wandering if i sold it how much monney is it going to bring me ??? any offers ??
@gore21best i have a 2009, traded my 1999 for it a couple weeks ago, my wife thinks i'm crazy, but i like the 1999 better, not saying i don't like my new one lol.
i remember back then 1st time the expedition came out and we tested out my grandpa's white eddie bauer i shitted on my pants i can't believe how smooth and fast that thing was! it was like riding very fast and smooth on an airplane! takeoff!
for me theirs something about the older expeditions thats just sets them appart from others, i think as the years have passed the expedition has lost its identity. But their still great trucks.
why do people need to say TRITON when all of them in this series are triton engines, aslo the 4.6 was the better engine in the 97 and 98 expeditions, the 5.4 became better in 1999 models
why knock on the column shifter. there's absolutley nothing wrong with a column shifter. it allows a 3rd person to sit in the front, or a hot chick to suck your dick. so stop bitching
@goldeneye4564 i love expeditions. I've had a every generation up until present day, and non of my newer ones excited me like my 1998, it had autotrac 4WD, 5.4 trition v8, and it was eddie bauer, which is not top of the line anymore, king ranch is which is what i have on my 2009 expedition.
@kendrickevans301 well i am only 17 years old. i paid for my 97 expo full in cash, and i plan on buying a king ranch in the near future, they are great trucks!
it's pretty funny... the Ford Ranger that is still on sale today (wouldn't be surprised if the Grand Marquis had it too) still has that same column shifter.
Only if you are deliberately violating copyright, what I use the music for is not against copyright. If you see ads on the video then it's already been screened and is perfectly fine :) thanks for the concern though man.
i'm not a big fan of suvs but it seems to ride well. also u think you can find out the name of the song heard on the stereo from 3:57 to 4:06? thnx! :)
Wow, O.o, no offense, but I thought these tired old things would barely make it over 3300 RPM's, let alone the 4800 you got out of it. I like the newer ones way better, especially the EL. But these are still very nice.
