So I landed an awesome deal My father bought a 1997 Ford expedition from my aunt a couple years back and now he doesnt have a need for it so since my stupid durango blew the motor I decided to buy this.
The story:
back in 1996 my aunt n uncle special ordered 2 ford expeditions when they rolled out the new concept one of each color combo they wanted... when they got the call for the delivery they went to the dealership and chose which one they wanted it is a 97 Eddie Bauer edition 4X4 with third row seats... AND the 5.4 motor with a tow pack it has EVERY option that they offered that year.
Im getting this flawless truck for 2000 dollars... Im pretty excited about it but now I need to figure out how to get it back to texas!

Here is the beauty

Muddy give it time... lol I already have looked at 3 inch spacer lifts and I KNOW where I can get a full AEM intake... PLUS when I decide to upgrade axles on the jeep then I can get a H2 set of rims and use the H2 tires for the Expo and the rims for the jeep... no waste!!! Im loving it
