I keep asking, when is Ford going to offer the 3.8L EcoBoost in the Expedition? For crying out loud, it's the same platform as the F150 and I'm willing to bet it would sell like hot cakes; the F150 with 'em seem to be selling quite well and I've yet to hear of horror stories about that engine. I'm a firm believer soccer moms don't need a V8 powered anything. (can't wait for the hate mail now!)

For some reason I was thinking your talking a new and not newer ride. Goes to show what happens when you assume anything.
