2020 FORD EXPEDITION MAX

If you're in the market for a capable, full-size SUV that can handle everything Michigan throws at it, the 2020 Ford Expedition MAX Limited Sport Utility for sale at Best of Michigan Auto Sales in Detroit, MI is worth a very serious look. With its commanding presence, genuine eight-passenger capacity, and a powertrain built for both the highway and the unexpected, this Expedition MAX checks every box for families, commuters, and adventure-seekers across the Metro Detroit area.

About This 2020 Ford Expedition MAX Limited

The MAX designation is no marketing gimmick — this is the stretched-wheelbase version of Ford's flagship full-size SUV, offering significantly more cargo room and third-row legroom than the standard Expedition. At 100,289 miles, this truck-based SUV is well into its working life but far from done. The Expedition platform is known for its longevity, and with proper maintenance history, examples like this routinely push well past 200,000 miles. For buyers in Detroit and Wayne County looking to maximize value per dollar on a premium large SUV, this Limited trim at its current price point represents a compelling opportunity.

The Limited trim sits near the top of the Expedition lineup, bringing a meaningful step up in luxury appointments, technology, and comfort over base and XLT models. This is a vehicle that was originally purchased by someone who wanted the best Ford had to offer in a full-size hauler — and that equipment still delivers today.

2020 Ford Expedition MAX Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Ford's legendary 3.5-liter EcoBoost Twin Turbo V6 — an engine that has earned a devoted following for good reason. Don't let the "V6" label fool you: this engine produces 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque in the Expedition application, numbers that rival many V8s while delivering better fuel efficiency. The twin-turbo setup means power is available low in the rev range, so merging onto I-75 or I-94 with a full load of passengers never feels labored.

Paired with a smooth 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission, power delivery is refined and responsive. The 4WD drivetrain adds genuine confidence for Michigan winters — and anyone who has navigated Detroit streets in January knows that's not a feature to overlook. Whether you're hauling the whole family up to Traverse City or navigating a Wayne County snowstorm, this powertrain is built for it.

Ford Expedition MAX Limited Features and Interior

The Limited trim on the 2020 Expedition MAX brings a premium interior experience that was genuinely competitive with European luxury SUVs at its original price point. Expect leather-trimmed seating for up to eight, a panoramic vista roof, dual-zone or tri-zone automatic climate control, heated and ventilated front seats, and a heated steering wheel — features that matter deeply during Michigan winters and summers alike.

Technology is well-represented with Ford's SYNC 3 infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a premium sound system, and a large touchscreen interface. The MAX body provides class-leading cargo volume behind the third row — one of the most practical advantages this vehicle has over competitors like the Chevrolet Suburban or GMC Yukon XL. Driver assistance features on the Limited include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring — a full suite for safer highway driving.

Ford Expedition Reliability and Ownership

The Ford Expedition has built a strong reputation for durability in the full-size SUV segment. The 3.5L EcoBoost engine found in this vehicle has been refined over multiple generations and is widely regarded as one of Ford's most dependable powerplants. Owners consistently report high satisfaction with long-term reliability when oil changes and coolant service are kept current — the twin-turbo setup does benefit from synthetic oil and regular intervals.

At 100,000+ miles, prospective buyers should budget for standard high-mileage maintenance items: spark plugs (typically due around 100k), a transmission fluid service, and inspection of the four-wheel drive transfer case. None of these are alarming at this mileage — they're simply part of responsible ownership. The Expedition's body-on-frame construction also means that structural integrity tends to hold up well over time, unlike unibody crossovers that can develop more pronounced wear patterns at similar mileage.
