Pros: What do you like about 2006 Ford Expedition?
The truck is great considering my family was driving a Dodge caravan around. The people that have the issue of having it being in the shop most of the time bought the wrong truck...
We bought our King Ranch Ford Expedition (full loaded) in 2006 and haven't taken it in for repairs once. It still looks brand new and I love how smooth it drives.
It can easily go up to 95 mph and seem like you are driving 60 mph so I'm not sure how they say that it's noisy driving over 65 mph.
I can barely feel the large bumps in the road with this vehicle also.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Ford Expedition?
Get a better navigation system. The CDs are not cutting it. It's annoying and some of the places aren't on there because they are in between CDs. Each CD is a different region that's the only problem.
2006 Ford Expedition Review:
It's an overall great truck and love having it to drive around. It climbs the hills easily and the traction control is great. The traction control saved us from having some accidents also. The truck can make turns while having all the wheels locked up without losing control. I have tested the Rollover Stability Control and I have to say it drives like a car practically. There are times where I would be driving to fast on an unfamiliar road and a sudden sharp turn would come up and I could brake and turn without really worrying if I would rollover. Sure the tires would squeal but it did not feel as if it was going to rollover.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Ford Expedition?
The 2006 Expedition, being my second Eddie Bauer Expedition, is a wonderful all around vehicle. It cannot be beaten with any other similar SUV, in my experiences and opinion. The fuel mileage is not bad considering other vehicles of its size and high profile. I easily get 21 mpg on the highway; only 13 to 14 in town. My first SUV, a 2003 Expedition, Eddie Bauer edition, on which I put 130k miles, convinced me that it was the vehicle for my family, for travel, for around town, grocery shopping, etc. The 2006 is fantastically responsive, and holds its own in acceleration and top speed a little better than did the 2003. The interior is well designed with quality material. As a Jaguar owner, also,I recognize quality. Ford's quality interior is as nice as one should expect unless he wishes to pay the price of a Lexus or Jag.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Ford Expedition?
The absolutely only improvement that I see needed is in the fuel mileage. I recommend this vehicle to one and all. I suggest that a fuel level of 1/4 tank or better be maintained due to the installation of the fuel pump in the gas tank. Operating the vehicle with less than that amount on a regular basis can cause fuel pump problems. Also, the spark plugs should be changed as recommended by Ford. To allow one to blow out of its position can be costly to replace, as much as $700! Once the mileage passes 90k, the point at which Ford recommends changing the plugs, the chances of it rejecting a plug(s) are greatly enhanced.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Ford Expedition?
Roomy interior.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Ford Expedition?
We have replaced the fuel pump twice in 2 years, Ford doesn't stand behind warranty either, nothing but headaches.
The ford installed remote start doesn't work, nothing but a lemon.
2006 Ford Expedition Review:
First and last Ford I will buy, not reliable at all, every 6 months it's in the shop for something, definitely buyer beware!

2006 Ford Expedition Review:
Overall I love this truck. It is great for our family and tows our 5,000 boat very nicely. It has classy looks and beat out the tahoe and sequoia for us.

2006 Ford Expedition Review:
Love the vechicle. This is my 2nd Expedition, had a 2000 with no trouble. The seats are super comfortable. It makes a great vechicle for traveling. Gas mileage is not bad for this size SUV.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Ford Expedition?
Look, space.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Ford Expedition?
I think the leather Interior could be about the same as in the Eddie Bauer. The Sport should come with a chrome wheel instead of the dull center cap thats' on the mod wheel.
2006 Ford Expedition Review:
The Expedition Sport is a nice truck for the price and creature comforts. I had a 2000 Explorer with the 5.0 and man, this 300hp 5.4 moves real good! The handling is good for a vehicle this size and I haven't towed anything yet but it will come.
