2017 Expedition XLT
Quick intro!

Have owned three Explorers in the past--all in the '90s/early 2000s-before owning two Expeditions including my current 2017 Expedition XLT. Mainly used for transporting my Newfoundlands to dog shows but now that I'm downsizing and not traveling to shows as much thinking of eventually trading for another Explorer. I've heard some not so great things about the current generation of Explorers so thought I'd join this forum (also belong to the Expy Forum which has been quite informative) to learn and do my due diligence before making that step. Current Expy only has 120K miles on it and running great so still have time before making that leap into my downsizing vehicle. Loved the three Explorers-two which I ordered new and one I bought used.

Looking forward to reading and learning from you all!

I have a 2020 ST which I absolutely love. I do all my own maintenance. The only issues I've had are a couple factory recalls. One for the axle disconnect, and the other for the backup camera.

400HP while getting 26mpg on the highway is downright amazing to me.
