2019 Ford Expedition

The Expedition has a muscular, boxy look, and its large chrome grille has the Ford blue oval logo in the center. You can choose from six trim levels: Platinum MAX, Platinum, Limited MAX, Limited, XLT MAX, and XLT. The XLT is the base model, and it comes with a rear windshield wiper, fog lights, daytime running lamps, 18-inch wheels, a roof rack, and an Easy Fuel capless fuel filler. It also has manually folding, heated power side mirrors. You can choose to add on a foot-activated liftgate, rain-sensing windshield wipers, 20-inch or 22-inch wheels, or a panoramic sunroof as well. The MAX trim levels are almost a foot longer than the other models, and they have an extra 16.9 cubic feet of cargo space.

This popular SUV uses a turbocharged V-6 EcoBoost engine with automatic start-and-stop technology to increase its fuel efficiency. It gives 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, and it can travel 17 miles per gallon in urban areas and 24 mpg on the highway. An Expedition MAX with four-wheel drive can go 16 mpg in traffic and 21 mpg on open roads.

With this vehicle, you can enjoy a smooth, comfortable ride with a 10-speed automatic transmission. It has great acceleration, and it can tow up to 9,300 pounds. With four-wheel-drive models, you'll get a terrain management system, hill start assistance, and hill descent control.

The 2019 Expedition has a spacious, upscale interior with several convenient features, including power folding second- and third-row seats, a power driver's seat, SiriusXM satellite radio, voice recognition, 15 cup holders, cruise control, push-button start, a universal garage door opener, and a nine-speaker audio system with a CD player. The steering wheel has controls that are easy to reach while you're on the road, and there's a keypad for keyless entry. Optional tech and comfort features include USB ports, dual-zone automatic climate control, a Wi-Fi hotspot, wireless charging, a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, remote start, and an 8-inch touchscreen.

The Expedition's advanced safety features can lower your risk of injury in the event of an accident, and they'll reduce your stress while driving. It comes with dual-stage front air bags, a rollover sensor that activates side-curtain air bags, and a post-crash alert system that can turn on your hazard lights and your horn. Other options include forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, trailer tow monitoring, and a blind spot information system with rear cross-traffic alert. You can also add on standard and parallel parking assistance that uses a 360-degree camera system.
