1998 Ford Expedition review from North America
"I love this car to death"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A spark plug blew out of the engine at 85,000 miles requiring a new head which set me back around $3000.
Replaced the idle valve two years ago at 110,000 miles.
Replaced Alternator at 110,000 miles.
The car is flawless since.
General comments?
I absolutely love this car and would not trade it in for another. It looks better than the day I bought it; showroom condition paint. I upgraded brakes/rims/tires at 85,000 miles. It is a very safe car and my wife prefers to ride it than my brand new mercedes.
King of the road.
