Ford trucks seem to be as almost as popular as Chevy/gmc trucks. Is there any reason hardly any one buys an expedition (when compared to a Yukon/Tahoe/suburban)? Bad marketing? Poor execution?

The new, redesigned Expeditions are considerably nicer than the Tahoe or Suburban.

For the 2018 models they are having trouble with sourcing aluminum for the wheels and such.

There are very few available. I know someone that had one on order for like 6 months before just settling for one that was close.

I still can't trust the Ecoboost motors.

Absolutely. The Expeditions are incredible and drive smaller than the size they are.

We looked at a Platinum a while back. And apparently, we are going to be looking again soon from what my wife has shared with me.

I used to have an F150 with Ecoboost. Never had an issue.

Now I am stuck with a bad decision and under powered Taco. And the seats in the cabin feel like I am sitting on a concrete bench.

the pricing I've seen on the new Expeditions is absolutely absurd! No way they should cost that much.

1000 percent agree. But if you think that is insane, take a look the Lincoln Navigator.

Or the fully decked out Lexus LX570. Almost $100K.

I can’t bring myself to buy another vehicle until this market comes back down to earth.

74000 sticker on a 17 premium TAHOE. Plus tax at 10 percent. Unbelievable!!

ETA I did not pay that.

And I hated the dash on the navigator. Boxy and ugly.
