1998 Ford Expedition Review

Big, handsome and hard to get.
Interior
The Expedition's generous outside dimensions provide for a large, commodious interior. Two seating configurations

are available. Ordered with front bucket seats and a center bench, the Expedition can comfortably haul five

passengers. Ordered with the front full-width seat and center bench makes room for six passengers. Well-padded chairs

provide comfortable seating.

Adding the optional third-row bench provides seating for two more passengers--three if they are small. Getting

in and out of the third seat requires some agility, so it helps if they are small and young.

Our XLT came with full carpeting, attractive color-keyed door- and dash panels and amenities galore, including

power windows, mirrors and door locks, air conditioning, a tilt steering wheel and an audio system that should please

many buyers. First- and second-row occupants get separate heating, ventilation and air conditioning controls; a

third set of controls for the third seat is optional.

A curved dashboard houses instruments and controls where they can easily be reached. A large center console offers

additional storage space and a place for front-seat occupants to rest their arms; a roof-mounted center console is

also available. The Eddie Bauer roof console adds a digital display that provides the date and time, average fuel

economy, compass headings, along with a switch for the power swing-out rear quarter windows.

Attractive and durable materials are used throughout the Expedition's cabin. Soft-touch coverings are applied to

switches and door panels. The window switches are lighted internally at night, a nice touch that not all vehicles carry. Next Page
