I haven't pre ordered one and don't plan to. These were my thoughts posted in a different thread.
#120We bought an Expedition thinking I would tow my Mustang to car shows. Easier than packing 2 kids and luggage in the Mustang. That happened twice in 10 years. If I need to tow, I’ll just rent a truck. Expedition is great for long trips though. We use it to go to Las Vegas a couple times a year.
What I do miss is having a pickup truck and just throwing stuff in the back; plywood, 2x4s, large tools, dirty car parts, dueling tree, steel targets/stand, commercial refrigerators, etc. I had a ‘90s Toyota pickup that was great for this. Long trips to Vegas, not so much.
Still deciding between a single motor and dual motor; leaning towards single motor. Tow capacity isn’t a concern; not planning to tow. Speed is not a concern; other cars are faster and 6.5 0-60 in a truck is plenty quick. AWD isn’t needed; Expedition is 2wd and never needed to put chains in 10 years. Lastly, don’t think ~50 miles of range is worth $10k for the trips to Vegas; I’m thinking it’s not.
Also, not sure there is an advantage to putting in an order this early. My experience with the Model 3 suggest there isn’t; ordered 10/19 and delivery was 12/28; others ordered in December and got theirs within a week. So unless there is some special perk reservists get this early, I’ll wait to put my order in.
