A new look at Ford Expedition towing capacity

The new 2300 Ford Expedition and Expedition Max provide an inviting environment for families taking an extended road trip. With all its creature comforts, the Ford Expedition and Expedition Max both do remarkably well when it comes to towing capacity. In fact, they both can out-pull certain models of well-known full-size pickups like the Ram 1500 and the Chevy Silverado 1500. For family-friendly SUVs, that's really saying something.

The Ford Expedition for 2023 gives families in Orlando and Winter Park FL a maximum towing capacity of up to 9,300 pounds. With all that towing strength, the Ford Expedition or the Ford Expedition Max can be your best ally on weekends. To give you a better idea of the possibilities, here's a closer look at these two muscular SUVs.

Towing capacity in the Ford Expedition

When it's properly equipped, the 2023 Ford Expedition can tow as much as 9,300 pounds. All versions of the new 2023 Ford Expedition can tow a minimum of 6,000 pounds. The 3.5-liter Ford EcoBoost V6 is good for 375 horsepower and a very capable 470 pound-feet of torque. That's some serious pulling power. You and your family can tow up to 9,300 pounds in the Ford Expedition and 9,000 pounds in the long wheelbase Ford Expedition Max.

Here's what's possible even without the heavy-duty towing package

The maximum towing capacities listed above are based on using the optional Heavy-Duty Trailer Towing Package. But even without that heavy-duty package, the Ford Expedition and Expedition Max can both tow as much as 6,600 pounds. That's still a very good number. When you maximize this SUV's potential, you can tow the kind of fun-loving equipment that can make every vacation something special, including:

• Camping trailers 25 feet long or longer
• lLarge boats
• Dirt bikes, jet skis, wave runners and cargo trailers

How to enhance your towing experience in a new Ford expedition

The Ford Expedition gives you a big choice of features that can make trailering easier than you might have ever thought possible. When you add the available Advance-Trac® with Roll Stability Control system, you can get the kind of trailer sway control that can help keep you stable as you travel along the roadways around Maitland and Altamonte Springs FL. 

We not only have your back, we also have your blind spot

Ford's available Blind Spot Information System provides coverage for your trailer. This advanced technology lets you see what's happening around the trailer as well as the usual blind spots covered with this kind of feature. The Pro-Trailer Backup Assist makes sure you never have trouble when you're backing up with the trailer in tow. Simply rotate the dashboard knob in the direction you want to go and you can reverse with precision.

Room for people and cargo

The Ford Expedition and Expedition Max both have room to provide seating for all your passengers. The three row arrangement can accommodate eight people and with the available second row captain's chairs, the Ford Expedition can welcome seven people inside. With the second and third rows folded folded, the Expedition gives you 104.6 cubic feet of space. The long-wheelbase Ford Expedition Max offers up to 121.5 cubic feet.
