The 1997 Ford Expedition is a full-size SUV that marked the beginning of Ford's foray into the lucrative large SUV market. Launched in 1996 as a 1997 model, the Expedition was built on the same platform as the Ford F-150 pickup truck, ensuring a robust and capable foundation. It was initially offered in two trim levels: the base XL and the more luxurious Eddie Bauer. Both trims featured a 5.4-liter V8 engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering ample power for hauling passengers and cargo. The Expedition's spacious interior could comfortably seat up to eight passengers, while its cargo area offered ample room for luggage and gear. The 1997 Ford Expedition was a significant departure from Ford's previous SUV offerings. It was not only larger and more powerful but also more refined and comfortable. Its success can be attributed to its blend of practicality, comfort, and capability, making it an appealing choice for families and individuals seeking an SUV for daily driving, weekend adventures, or towing heavy loads. The Expedition's success paved the way for the Ford Excursion, a larger and more luxurious SUV that was launched in 1999. However, the 1997 Expedition remains a key model in Ford's history, marking the brand's entry into the full-size SUV market and setting the stage for future generations of the popular vehicle.
