2006 Expedition Expedition. My truck as 'expedition' written all over it

Just called TAG - bumper should start any day now; he's sure I'll have it within about 3 weeks. Completely stoked

Nice Expy. Years ago, an internet group called themselves ExpeditionXpedition. Seemed to be primarily east coast. This was in the days of the first generation of the Expy. Those folks used and enjoyed them off the pavement.

Good luck with the TAG folks.

I'm curious to hear how this will turn out. Be sure to keep us updated.

Was this the place that used to be Kennesaw Mountain or something like that?

Thank you - I have thicker padding for the sleeping side - unsure if I want to mount it. Will figure it out though.

I did! It's near the rolled carpet and what-not. Packs of 6 or 9 1 sq foot, interlocking mats.

I just do not know. I know it's in GA, so it's possible.

Was not expecting this at all. Very great take on a pavement queen! Really opens my eyes to this platform.

Great Job and look forward to your progress

i hope your tag bumper is all that you expected and paid for. the f150 tag bumper looks to fit horrible to the fender/flares. Your expedition looks great, its one of the vehicles i had on my list before buying my current truck. It came down to just needing the bed space.

Hang your bags in the rear drivers side window. You aren't able to look out that window any way. I leave extra jackets hanging there incase I need them in my truck. They are on a hanger. I leave the passenger side open for lookin' of course. : )

Any updates on the bumper?

Thanks! I got the bumper today (pic below) and will start the install - posting pics.

Excellent! Thanks Dino!

Indeed!

I'm really curious to see how your install goes on the bumper, especially what you do with the grill. Always seemed funny to me that the F150 Grill is connected to the hood whereas the Expedition grill is not. Will be watching.

Good to see an Expedition build. I totally agree with others. Once you get the Ford finished I doubt you will see the need for a Toyota. The Jeep suggestion is appropriate since they are all over the place, but keep in mind the 4 door Jeeps have no where near the room the Ford does. Once you have the bumper, winch and lockers finished you will be pleasantly surprised at the capabilities of the Expedition.
