Those of us who wanted an affordable 2021 Ford Expedition spec with just five seats inside may now opt for the U.S. $49,995 XL STX version (taxes and other fees not included).
The new Expedition XL STX has a glossy black radiator grille, 18-inch alloys wrapped in all-season tires, bumpers color-matched to the rest of the body, as well as black mirror housings, roof rails and running boards.
Inside, the only major bit of novelty comes in the shape of the missing third row, which nets you more trunk space and higher load capacity.
Like the rest of the lineup, the 2021 Expedition XL STX trim relies on a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 to propel it forward in tandem with a SelectShift 10-speed A/T.
