AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™) is a class-exclusive standard feature on Ford Expedition. AdvanceTrac® monitors driver input, road conditions and slippage at all four wheels to deliver torque exactly where it's needed. The patented RSC® system with unique roll rate sensor measures roll motion, then applies individual ABS brakes and reduces engine torque to help keep all 4 wheels firmly planted. AdvanceTrac® with RSC® offers added confidence in situations such as maneuvering to avoid something, driving on slippery surfaces, or even just traveling on uneven surfaces such as in construction zones. Remember that even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It's always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions.

The awesome power of the 5.4L Triton® V8 is transmitted to the drive wheels by way of a class-exclusive standard 6-speed automatic transmission. The wide 6-gear spread helps the engine generate lots of low-end torque (for tasks such as trailer towing) and provide efficient operation in 6th gear overdrive on the highway. Shifting is smooth and comfortable.

The 2008 Expedition EL (Extended Length) provides all the versatility of the regular-length Expedition plus 24 additional cu. ft. of cargo space. The EL can pack it all in so you can take more with you on your family adventures.

ControlTrac™, the standard system on the available Expedition 4x4, provides greater control in situations requiring added traction capability by dividing engine torque front-to-rear. Turning a rotary knob lets you (1) drive in high or low 4-wheel drive mode, (2) switch to 4x4 AUTO which automatically optimizes traction by transferring power to the appropriate wheels, or (3) shift into more economical 2-wheel drive.
