Ford Expedition - Sport Utility Vehicle

What can I not say about the Ford Expedition? This is a great vehicle for anyone that has a large family, boat, and trailer or hauls a lot of stuff at once. We have owned a van, truck and car and out of all the vehicles we have owned the Ford Expedition is our favorite even down to the kids. We were in the market looking for a new vehicle and test drove several Ford products but fell in love with the Ford Expedition. We purchased the 2006 model that had approximately 60, 000 miles on it.

All the standard Ford Expeditions come equipped with the latest technologies, CD player, AM/FM player, power windows, cruise control, a roof rack, tilt steering, power seats, automatic transmission and air conditioning some even come with a navigation system. The newer models start out around 35, 000 dollars and go as high as 55, 000 dollars depending on what features you would like.

It is nice to have a family of 7 who can sit comfortably in a car without being cramped up and still have room to seat friends. I love being able to take my Ford Expedition to the store or to the beach and we can pack it down and still have plenty of room to move around.

The Ford Expedition rides smooth, handles curves well and even has a great towing capacity. We have a pontoon boat and have had no problem hooking the trailer up and dragging the pontoon anywhere we want to go.

Even with the large size of the Ford Expedition the gas mileage has been pretty well if you drive a lot of highway miles. In my van it costs me approximately 35-40 dollars to fill up which is the same as in the Expedition. There is about a few dollar differences but overall about the same.

The Expedition has a very sporty look about it. It comes with black running boards which is trendy and makes the high step up easy to accomplish. There is also a handle inside the door so as you are stepping up you can hold on and feel secure.

I would have to highly recommend the Ford Expedition to anyone looking for a great sport utility vehicle. The only feature that I don't like is that the gas tank is a little smaller and we live far out into the country so we find ourselves filling up a little more often that I would like. The Ford Expedition is well worth the price.
