Ford Expedition - “Highest Ranked Large SUV in Initial Quality, 2 Years in a Row”

According to the study, the Ford Expedition has received the “lowest rate of reported problems” among the participating Large SUV models.

Ford Mustang - “Highest Ranked Midsize Sporty Car in Initial Quality, 2 Years In a Row”

Just like the Expedition, the Ford Mustang also earned the “lowest rate of reported problems” in the Midsize Sporty Cars category. The 2018 edition has been designed to provide drivers with exhilarating thrills, regardless of where they are. You can pick one of two outstanding engines: the 2.3L EcoBoost engine or the 5.0 V8 Coyote engine. The 2.3L has more torque than previously seen, thanks to the transient overboost component built into the engine. The 5.0 V8 Coyote engine uses port fuel and direct injections to bring you a high level of torque, power, and efficiency. Here at Portsmouth Ford, your NH Ford dealer, we will be glad to talk about the incredible levels of performance that a Ford Mustang can give you.
