2003 Ford Expedition XLT and 2003 Ford Expedition
Eddie Bauer
The 2003 Ford Expedition XLT and the 2003 Ford Expedition
Eddie Bauer are full-size SUVs offering superb steering
and braking, capacious interior space, and towing capabilities
of 6000 lbs. Both models seat up to nine people, and
this year, come with a wider body and style updates
such as stirrup-type exterior handles.
The power fold-down third-row seat in the Eddie Bauer
model is an industry first. To augment the excellent
visibility in both Expedition models, the Eddie Bauer
model also contains a rear-obstaExpeditione warning
option. For 2003, the XLT is available in a new FX4
Off-Road edition, which inExpeditionudes skid plates,
off-road shock absorbers, and tubular running boards.
Under the Hood
Both the 2003 Ford Expedition XLT and the 2003 Ford
Expedition Eddie Bauer are available with 4.6 L or 5.4
L V-8 engines, providing 232 horsepower and 260 horsepower
respectively. With four-speed automatic transmission,
both models are available in either 2-wheel drive or
Ford's ControlTrac 4-wheel drive, which can remain in
use even on dry pavement.
Thanks to its superior steering, the Expedition manuevers
well, especially on corners. It offers antilock four-wheel
disc brakes and brake assist, and 17-inch wheels on
both models.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
The 2003 XLT model is available in the Value, Popular,
FX4 Off-Road, and Premium editions. All Expeditions
offer three rows of seats, dual front airbags, remote
keyless entry, and a theft-deterrent system. All editions
except XLT Value come with fog lights. Front and second-row
side curtain airbags are optional on all editions except
the XLT Value, as is Ford's AdvanceTrac traction-control/antiskid
system.
A tire-pressure monitor is a new option on the XLT
Premium and the Eddie Bauer. Both these editions can
also be equipped with a power sunroof.
This full-size SUV provides an astounding amount of
interior space and, thanks to its revamped suspension
and long wheelbase, a stable ride.
Invoice price: $26,968-36,118
List price: $30,555-41,195
