2002 Ford Expedition XLT review from North America
"Great family vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The paint on the roof line separated.
General comments?
The Expedition has a lot of power for towing.
We find the vehicle to be smaller in side than the van we previously owned.
The rear seat folds up nicely giving extra cargo space, but it is very difficult to remove.
The sound system is good, but is nothing special.
The 5.4 liter engine gives lots of highway power for quick passing on two lane highways.
The wheel rims on the XLT are not very nice looking and are too expensive to replace.
Adjustable pedals are a very nice option as my wife is a small lady and this is her primary vehicle for driving.
