I think new Expeditions need a bit more love?

[nickw]

Just read through the landing page article about the Redtail Skyloft on the Expo.....cool rig! I know you can get them with the HD rear axles that come on the F150 HDPP.....underrated, IMO and looks great with what looks to be 35's...

I completely agree. They just really lack aftermarket support for offroad so I understand why they are not as popular. Been leaning towards an expy as the next family car since the fam is growing. If you're on IG check out kingdom_overlanding. Expy owner who did a raptor swap and it looks awesome. There's about a dozen or so Expys that have a similar setup.

I think the stock Timberline would probably be sufficient for most people.

 

[SDDiver5]

Indeed it would, wish it could be had for a bit cheaper tho!

Okay.... Wow. I didn't realize they were a 100K vehicle here. I think for that money I'd rather have a Raptor High.
Or save 15 G's and get a F150 Tremor High which would probably be the same off road....

Explorer Timberline is about 30k cheaper tho lol

I saw an Expy Timberline about 3 weeks ago and they really do look awesome

Yeah... but not really comparable... Plus for similar dough here, I could get a Bronco Black Diamond Mid pgk ....

Unbelievable that vehicles are pushing 100k regularly now. I simply just do not understand.

I like it but one of my complaints with SUV’s is that they cost more than pickups. That and they’re chick cars.

Bring back the Excursion...

Chick cars? It's the same or very sim platform as a F150, isn't it? I'd drive one in a heart beat...

It's twice the truck as one of those little 1/4 T Rangers.....ever seen one of those up close?

People keep asking me why I would bother putting some love into an 11th gen F150, mind you, when I was in Jr. High, a brand new Delorean DMC-12 would run $25K.

The Raptor on that page cost barely, just barely less than I paid for my house in 2002...

I'm keeping the old beast running as long as I can. I can't afford another mortgage payment.

Heck that Tremor easily cost 4x what my 2004 Supercab XLT went for when I bought it, admittedly lease return used in '06 but still...

Lol. Same towing capacity of a 5.4 super duty.
