If you get a EL make sure that it will fit in your garage or parking space. I have a 07 non EL EB 4X4 and it just will fit in a new duplex garage, the EL would not have let the garage door shut. Also My present inside parking space I have at my condo would cause my rear end to stick out. I mean my 07 Expeditions rear end to stick out if I had an EL.
As far as gas milage, well it's a SUV with a 3.73 so...............
I will watch my fuel rail crossover hose now that I know there could be a problem.
But so far, the poor transmission shifting has been my biggest pain in the neck.
I have the EB white, gold two tone, and I wish it did not, but that is the way it came.
Over all this 07 is "ok", but nothing to write home about.
