The Expedition has a standard rear-wheel drive (RWD) drivetrain, which is a form of two-wheel drive. Despite this, you can get 4WD if you upgrade to a higher trim or pay for the 4WD package. A 4WD-equipped Expedition is advisable for anyone planning to do a lot of winter driving.

My 99 Expedition Eddie Bauer has full time 4 wheel drive. Or at least it has A4x4 on the switch. WHen turning steep into a parking space or out on the road it jumps and hops as if it were in 4wheel high or something.
You are destroying your 4x4 system!!! either use 2h until you need 4x4 or get your transfer case fixed. It is clearly not working automatically. You are seriously damaging your wheel hubs in the front if you continue to drive on dry pavement in 4x4. Mark.
No 4WD of any flavor could be driven on our roadbeds without a 2wd as primary mode. Sign In or Register to comment.
When you have it in 4WD is the front driveshaft spinning (all wheels off gound) if so the tranfer case is doing it's job! The hubs are problematic on this vehicle and yes they are vacuum controlled by a Integrated wheel end solenoid (IWE) The solenoid simply diverts the vacuum when you command 4WD engaging the hubs.
All Expedition trims are powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine producing 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft. of torque. If you opt for the Platinum trim level, the Expedition delivers 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft. of torque with the same engine.
The Expedition has nearly 10 inches of ground clearance, and you’ll want the running boards to make the climb inside easier. The full-size SUV is massive inside and is designed for adventurous people with an adventurous lifestyle.
When properly equipped with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Towing Package, the 2020 Ford Expedition will tow 9,300 lbs. in a 4×2 configuration and 9,200 lbs. in a 4×4 configuration.
An FX4 off-road package is also available for the 2020 Ford Expedition. Ford Co-Pilot360, Ford’s suite of driver aids, is now standard across all trim levels. Every Expedition includes SYNC 3 with a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot for up to 10 mobile devices. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard across the range.
The 2020 Ford Expedition Limited we drove came standard with heated and cooled leather seats in the front, heated second-row seats, a heated steering wheel, a power-folding third-row seat, and tri-zone climate control.
Of course, all good things come at a cost—and in the case of this new Ford, it's a literal one. The sole 2018 Expedition available for less than $50,000 is the two-wheel-drive, short-wheelbase stripper that goes by the in-this-case-pointed name of XL—a vehicle so clearly aimed at fleet buyers, it's not even on Ford's online car configurator. XLT models start at a range between $51,695 and $57,390; the Limited model above that bases between $62,585 and $68,400; and the top-tier Platinum starts out between $72,710 and $78,545. That latter model comes well-equipped, including with an extra 25 horsepower and 10 pound-feet you'll never notice; still, add on the handful of remaining options and the $1,195 destination and delivery fee, and you're staring down the barrel of a Ford with an $83,000 price tag. Granted, the company sells F-Series trucks with beefier price tags...but those don't have to deal with an in-house luxury rival the way the Expedition has to compete with the equally-new Lincoln Navigator, which starts at $72,055 and offers the sort of fancy-pants interior you'd expect from a vehicle at that price.
Every Expedition seats eight people, as standard; every Expedition features the same EcoBoost powertrain with best-in-class fuel economy; with both back rows folded flat, every Expedition has enough room to stack men the size of me like cordwood and still close the hatch.
