CAPABILITY
Triton V8 Power
The 5.4L Triton® Flex-Fuel V8 is engineered to put the torque where it's needed
most, delivering 90 percent at or below 2000 rpm. Multi-valve technology (3
valves per cylinder) allows the engine to breathe more freely, increasing
horsepower. The 5.4L Triton® generates 310 horsepower and 365 lb.-ft of torque.
All this awesome power is transmitted to the drive wheels by way of a 6-speed
automatic transmission. Its wide 6-gear spread helps the engine generate lots of
low-end torque (for tasks such as towing) and provide efficient operation in 6th
gear overdrive on the highway.
Big Towing Capacity
Few vehicles rival a full-size SUV in its ability to tow a large boat or
camper-trailer. The 5.4L Triton® V8's 310 horsepower and 365 lb./ft. of torque
give the Expedition 4x2 regular-length model a maximum 9,200-lb. towing capacity
when properly equipped with the available Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package. (The
Expedition EL has a maximum towing capacity of 8,900 pounds.) For family
recreation, Expedition is pretty hard to beat.
Independent Rear Suspension
Ford Expedition delivers an exceptionally smooth ride. A big reason is the
Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) that allows each wheel to respond
independently to rough or uneven surfaces for a smooth and controlled ride.
ControlTrac 4x4 System
ControlTrac™, the standard system on the available Expedition 4x4, provides
greater control in situations requiring added traction capability by dividing
engine torque front-to-rear. Turning a rotary knob lets you (1) drive in high or
low 4-wheel drive mode, (2) switch to 4x4 AUTO which automatically optimizes
traction by transferring power to the appropriate wheels, or (3) shift into more
economical 2-wheel drive.
Extended Length Model
The Expedition EL (Extended Length) provides all the versatility of the
regular-length Expedition plus 24 additional cu. ft. of cargo volume behind the
3rd-row seat.* The EL can pack it all in so you can take more with you on your
family adventures.
*Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and weight distribution.
Full Size Cargo Space
When you don't require all of Expedition's full-size seating comfort, you can
make good use of all its full-size cargo-carrying capability. And that's the
beauty of Expedition - its outstanding versatility. The regular-length
Expedition model provides 18.6 cu. ft. behind the 3rd-row seat and up to 108.3
cu. ft. when both the 2nd- and 3rd-row seat backs are lowered. It gets obviously
much better with the extended-length Expedition EL: 42.6 cu. ft. behind the 3rd
row to 130.8 cu.ft. with the 2nd- and 3rd-row seat backs are lowered. And if you
fill up all that space, there's a roof rack with crossbars up top to carry even
more.
