Smooth. Stable. Refined. Those are the main characteristics that define the Ford Expedition. It has a very precise handling and it is very responsive despite its huge size and weight. And this is all due to its rigid chassis as well as its sophisticated independent rear suspension. The newest model of this vehicle comes with new exterior color choices, which include pueblo gold, and red fire.
The new Ford Expedition exudes a larger and bolder aura. However, the truth behind this is that it actually did not even receive enlargements of any sort. All that this vehicle received was the widening of its track to a mere two inches. And that made all the difference plus adding a well planted stance to the vehicle. Its design was also changed and the Ford Expedition received raised hoods that gave the vehicle a much higher and towering attitude. It has 17 inch wheels. The bumpers have been integrated more smoothly for a cleaner and smoother effect. Take a ride inside the interior of the Ford Expedition and one would notice that a small center seat on the second row has been added. This small center seat could actually slide forward so as to give parents in the front seat access to a small child.
This vehicle has been made available with a choice of two engines. There is the 4.6 liter V8 engine and the 5.4 liter V8 engine. Both have as its partner in producing power a four speed automatic transmission.
