Well, today i saw the most expensive stock new Ford Expedition ever. A 2015 4X4 Platinum extended edition with the "Eco bust" engine. $ 66,000 and change!!!!!!!! And that was the factory sticker without any add-ons by the dealer.

That's not surprising anymore. GM 1/2-ton K2XX can be pushed into $60k without 4wd.

There was a nice 2015 diesel F350 crew cab 4X4 XLT (Lariat?) with single rear wheels parked not far from it with a $ 62.5k sticker and it was discounted to $ 51k. I would much rather have that truck than the Expedition. it was not Platinum edition, but it was pretty loaded and a much more versatile vehicle too. Not to mention much better resale value.

GM full size SUVs aren't any different.

 

It's simple, especially now a days. The bigger the cab or cabin is the more crab that has to go in them. And when I say crap I just mean all the electronic stuff and wiring. Even when I was looking at a truck a Crew Cab short bed was about 5K more than my Double cab with the standard bed. So I didn't even look into the cost of a Crew Cab standard bed over the Double cab. I said I'm good with the Double cab, I don't have kids or anything anyways. I could even get by with a regular cab but I didn't want a base trim and also I like having the back seat to put some stuff that I'd rather now put in the bed. I mean like bags, groceries and whatever else I would get in and out of the cab.

Is that expedition still based on their crap platform that's like 10 years old? If so, that's a disgrace. At least the GM platform is new

Yes it is. The only change is some sheet metal, some interior updates, and no more V8 AT ALL

That doesn't surprise me. I have nothing against the Ecoboost as an engine and option. But I've said on here before that I don't like how Ford is pushing it so much that they're going to make it so it's the ONLY option and no naturally aspirated V8 like a lot of people want. I figured that's what would happen because of them putting the Ecoboost in the new Raptor concept and then in the GT (GT40). If they gave it as just an option then it wouldn't be a huge deal to me. I bet within 5-10 years you won't see any naturally aspirated V8s as any option in any market rather it's the F series, Mustang or anything else that now have V8s.

66k is actually a small pricetag compared to the new Tahoe i saw on the lot for almost 90k! I should have taken a picture...

I'm guessing you haven't seen a 2015 Yukon Denali sticker.

Here you can get a very nice 06 escalade ESV platinum with every feature for about 15-16K with 115K miles. I think thats a fair price considering the 06 z71 suburban with the same miles will sell for about 12K.

Well, none of this changes the fact that this $ 66k Expedition is the most expensive Expedition to date. I remember when they first came out in mid 90's and a well optioned XLT 4X4 had a sticker of about $26k.

Gas was $1.00/gallon in the mid 90's; milk was $2.50ish/gallon. Things are more expensive now; that's just how it is. It sucks, but that's just how it is. 10 years ago, we all would have laughed at the thought of spending $50k on a truck....yet, here we are.

that's pretty much my own opinion about EcoBoost, its a good engine, with good Tech, but with Ford pretty much Shoehorning it into EVERY SINGLE Platform they have aside from the Super Duty, and hyping it to the point where they think its the best thing since Sliced bread, they will eventually Alienate the performance Oriented Ford Owner (because ; which GM and Chrysler will welcome with Open arms!

    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.    
    • Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!
    • This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
