My Perfect Expy.

Take the current 2003 - 2004 Eddie Bauer Expedition 4 x 2 and......

Color: Black
Engine: 5.8L, 350 HP @ 4,800 RPM w/400 lb. ft @ 2,400 RPM.
Drive: Full time AWD
Suspension: 4WIS
Ride Height: Reduced 1-inch in front, 2 inches in rear.
Tires: Goodyear Wrangler F-1, 285/55/20.
Wheels: 6-spoke chrome wheels. (Forged Aluminum / Centerline)
Tow: Class IV hitch.
Exhaust: True Dual, Borla mufflers.

2003 Eddie Bauer step rails, HID headlights & fog lights, Speed Grill insert, console mounted gear shifter (Like on Navigator), In-dash, flip screen DVD/GPS Navigation system, turn-signal mirrors, 12-disc/ 600 Watt DVD Audio system with two 10" sub woofers (Stock appearance), OnStar, voice activated integrated telephone with hands-free option, power-folding mirrors (When engine shuts off / defeatable), electronic key fob (As found on S-Class & 7 Series) that allows car to be started & run, just by having the key in the car, not necessarily in the ignition. This fob, once detected by the car- sets the vehciles settings to the particular desires of the holder of that fob.

That, would be MY perfect Expedition.
