Everything's bigger in Texas, and that includes the all-new 2018 Ford Expedition. On Tuesday, Ford revealed its upcoming full-sized SUV outside The Ford Center at the Star, a world-class training facility of the Dallas Cowboys located in Frisco, Texas. Hosted in part by Joe Hinrichs, Ford president, The Americas, along with Stephen Jones, chief operating officer of the Dallas Cowboys, the event showcased the stylish SUV which is one of five new nameplates being added to this category of the Ford portfolio by 2020.

New from the ground up with 40 new features and technologies, the vehicle is the smartest, most capable, most adaptable Expedition [they've] ever built as mentioned by Michael O'Brien, group SUV marketing manager for Ford. The 2018 Expedition will be built at the company's plant in Louisville, Kentucky, in three series which include the XLT, Limited, and Platinum and goes on sale at dealerships this fall.

The vehicle's full aluminum body saves up to 300 pounds while increasing length by 4 inches; and best-in-class towing is augmented with ProTrailer back-up assist.

Added content includes in-vehicle wireless charging, Wi-Fi which offers service for up to 10 devices, and a new family entertainment system with built-in screens in the back of the headrests of the first row.

Expedition owner Stephen Jones (shown here with Joe Hinrichs) was one of the first people outside Ford employees to get a chance to drive the new 2018 model.

The 3.5L EcoBoost engine with standard auto start/stop is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission for improved fuel economy and performance.

Improving flexibility for people and cargo, the Expedition offers sliding second-row seats, reclining third-row seats, and a panoramic vista roof for enhanced perception of space.

The 2018 Expedition will be built at the company's plant in Louisville, Kentucky, in three series which include the XLT, Limited, and Platinum.

Improved SYNCH 3 technology maintains an 8" touchscreen but is optimized for hands-free use making it more conversational for voice recognition.

Ford's suite of driver assist technologies now includes adaptive cruise with stop-and-go capability adding increased peace of mind while driving.

Cargo flexibility maintains full flat floor and adds an advanced cargo manager which gives configurable storage in the back.
