Overview & Reviews

Ford's replacement for the aging Bronco is the all-new Expedition. Based on the 1997 F-150 platform, this full-size sport-utility vehicle is poised to do battle with the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon.

• Great big truck that can seat up to nine passengers and still fit inside a regular garage. Interior ergonomics are outstanding, and a nice standard equipment list make it competitive with other full-size utes.

• Engine could use a bit more oomph
• Upshifts are rather abrupt and downshifts should happen a bit quicker.
• Even the optional 5.4-liter has difficulty accelerating beyond speeds of 70 mph. The transmission could also use some refinement

  First time happy with a Ford - 1997 Ford Expedition
  By woman suv driver - March 10 - 4:18 pm

  I have not had one problem with my Expedition. I have had all the recalls done. After changing the tires it feels alot better on the road. I am selling it to a woman today and it is like leaving an old friend. I never thought I would get attached to a vehicle. Never had in the past. Im glad she is going to another woman... Only complaint is they need to consider the size of some women when they design the vehicle like this.
