2023 Ford Expedition Timberline

The 2023 Ford Expedition Timberline is what happens when a family SUV stops meal prepping and starts deadlifting tree stumps. It is the most off road focused version of the Expedition and it looks the part with its higher stance, blacked out grille, orange accents, and Goodyear all terrain tires that look like they just climbed out of Arches National Park. This beast is powered by a high output 3.5 liter EcoBoost V6 that churns out 440 horsepower and 510 pound feet of torque. That is enough grunt to tow up to 9300 pounds, pull a trailer full of side by sides up Parleys Canyon, and still have energy left to merge like a rocket.

This Timberline is no grocery getter pretending to be tough. It comes with a two speed transfer case, an electronic limited slip differential, skid plates, and Trail Turn Assist, which helps this land yacht pivot on tight switchbacks like a dancer in hiking boots. Ford tuned the suspension to be softer and more compliant over rough terrain, and the result is a surprisingly composed ride whether you are bouncing through desert trails or cruising down I 15. It has 10.6 inches of ground clearance, which is more than enough to handle snowy Utah backroads, deep ruts in the Uintas, or that one dirt road your GPS keeps insisting is a shortcut.

Inside, the Expedition Timberline proves it can be brawny and brainy. The interior includes a 12 inch touchscreen with Sync 4, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a fully digital instrument cluster, and enough outlets to power a medium sized scout troop. The seats are a mix of tough cloth and ActiveX synthetic leather that laughs in the face of spilled hot cocoa. There is room for eight people or an entire Costco runs worth of supplies. Fold the second and third rows down and you are rewarded with more than 104 cubic feet of cargo space, enough to hold skis, tents, bikes, and possibly a small moose if properly positioned.

In Utah, this rig is practically made for you. It eats up snowy roads around Heber, makes the perfect basecamp vehicle for Zion, and looks right at home pulling up to Sundance or pulling out of City Creek Center with four kids and a kayak. It is big, bold, and unapologetically capable. Fuel economy hovers around 15 to 17 miles per gallon, which is decent considering you are driving something that could be mistaken for a mobile national park. The 2023 Ford Expedition Timberline is for people who want to go everywhere, bring everything, and never have to say no to an adventure.
