Well, I finally broke down and bought a new Expedition - 5.4L - cloth interior - True Blue. Thanks everyone for all the information on this board. I am extremely happy with the ride and engine response - and especially the folding rear seats.

 

Congrats on your purchase. Sounds like a nice ride. Keep us posted if you do any mods to it.
