The Ford Expedition Himalaya was conceived to negotiate the most rugged mountainous terrain. Based on the powerful and performance-minded Ford Expedition 4X4, its powerplant is a 260-hp, 5.4 liter Triton™ V-8 engine capable of blazing paths through the least inviting of environments. And for those trails that are exceptionally jagged, the Himalaya sports a suspension system with adjustable shocks to raises the vehicle an extra four inches, providing even more ground clearance.

Other features include a specially designed roof to offer excellent visibility for all passengers, an open cargo hold for easy access to climbing gear and a five-point restraining system to make sure no one gets lost or tossed out along the way.

Why should you own this model? Because it may well represent the apogee of SUV development at the pinnacle of market demand for this concept of automotive transportation. If you don't have an SUV in your collection, get this one from AUTOart!
