Instruments are hard to see and find at night. Elements of the instrument panel are great, with big black-on-white lettering in circles, but the gas gauge is hard to spot and very small in the corner; considering how thirsty the Expedition is, hiding it is probably a good thing. Or is it bad? We did enjoy the chrome touches throughout the cabin. Brushed aluminum up front came across nicely, and we liked the idea of the top dash tray, but not its execution. The hard plastic made everything slip around and created quite a racket. Turn hard enough or go fast enough, and what you’ve got up there may well fly right out.
