Will be new to ford...again

Hey all. Short history, bought a new 2000 Ford Focus, sold it for a 2002 Mercedes c class, just sold that and am looking at a 1999 Expedition. I had the sell the C class because I have a new baby girl (6 months old) and the car just wasn't working (2 door hatchback). I've been looking at the Expedition for a while now. I just wanted to get some tips on what to look out for when buying one. I'm going on wednsday to look at a 1999 Eddie Bauer Expedition, with 160K on the dial.

Anyone got any tips on what to look out for and what service is coming up that needs to be done?

Thanks,
B

Those would be my suggestions.
