Analyzing the Ford Terrain Management System™
Using the Terrain Management System™ is simple. Here’s how you can harness its full potential:
Locate and Rotate: Begin by locating the dial on your center console. This intuitive control allows you to shuffle through the available drive modes. With a twist of the dial, you’ll be ready to adapt to any driving situation that comes your way.
Digital Display: Pay attention to the digital cluster in your new Ford Expedition as you rotate the dial. It will display a matching animation for each drive mode, visually confirming your selection. This feature ensures that you’re always informed and in control.
Automatic Adjustment: Once you’ve chosen your preferred drive mode, your Expedition will seamlessly adjust to match your selection. Whether navigating the streets of Atlanta or exploring off-road trails, your vehicle will optimize its performance to meet your needs.
Automatic Reset: Are you worried about remembering your last setting? Don’t be. The Terrain Management System™ automatically resets to “Normal,” the default drive mode, whenever you turn your Expedition off and on again. This ensures a hassle-free experience every time you start your journey.
Now, let’s discuss the available drive modes:
Normal: This default mode is perfect for everyday road conditions and provides a balanced performance suitable for any situation.
Eco: Maximize fuel efficiency and extend your driving range with this mode, designed to help you save at the pump without compromising performance.
Sport: Inject excitement into your drive with increased accelerator pedal response and engaging lower gears. Whether merging onto the highway or tackling winding roads, this mode delivers an exhilarating experience.
Tow/Haul: Need to haul heavy loads? This mode provides boosted pulling power, making it easier to tow trailers and carry heavy cargo safely.
Snow/Wet: Maintain traction on rainy, wet, or snowy roads with this specialized mode, designed to keep you safe and in control in challenging conditions.
Grass/Gravel/Snow: Navigate through gravel, ice, and packed snow with ease. This mode limits torque to prevent slipping and sliding, ensuring a stable and controlled drive.
Mud/Rut: Conquer muddy, rutted, or uneven terrain. This mode allows for wheel spin to help you maintain momentum and overcome obstacles off-road.
Sand: Navigate through soft, dry sand like a pro with this specialized mode. Managing traction control and gear shifts ensures a smooth and effortless drive on sandy surfaces.
But wait, there’s more! With the Terrain Management System™, you can manually switch between 2WD or 4WD in any drive mode. This customization allows you to tailor your driving experience to suit your preferences and needs, giving you ultimate control on the road.
