2018 Ford Expedition FX4: For The Great Unknown (Or Getting Groceries)
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
Okay, so Ford says their all-new, 2018 Expedition with the FX4 Off-Road Package is the most “off-road-capable Expedition ever,” to which I say so what" If you think about it, that’s not saying much, given how little your average SUV is driven off-road, let alone in extreme off-road conditions. Ford more or less admits this by saying, “for the more than 20 percent of Expedition owners that use their SUV for off-road adventure, Ford introduces the all-new 2018 Expedition FX4 Off-Road Package, making this the most off-road-capable Expedition ever.”
Too Much Or Just Right"
In other words, only one out of five Expedition owners actually drive off the pavement. That’s like Craftsman saying, “hey, did you know that 20 percent of people who buy our tools actually use them to turn screws with"” That’s really nothing much to crow about, Ford. So the all-new, 2018 Expedition with the FX4 Off-Road Package is better at going off-road. Good, I applaud that. I really do. But as it sits on the showroom floor, don’t expect any of these guys to be turning up at King Of The Hammers or the just run Mint 400. It’s better at running off-road no doubt, but it sure ain’t going to be running in this year’s Dakar Rally. Mostly, it will excel doing what most prospective owners want it to do: commute, haul groceries, get the kids to school and back, or so...
