Trim Notes

Max 9,300 lbs requires the standard-wheelbase Expedition (not Max) in RWD with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package and 3.73 electronic limited-slip axle; the standard 3.5L EcoBoost is sufficient.

⚠ Important

Ratings vary by wheelbase (Expedition vs. Expedition Max), drivetrain (2WD vs 4WD), and axle ratio. Expedition Max and 4WD configurations generally tow slightly less. Always verify against the door-jamb label and Owner's Manual for the specific VIN.

◆ Gear you may need

Always confirm against your door-jamb sticker & OEM towing guide before hauling. Ratings vary by exact configuration.

Prose overview

The 2022 Ford Expedition carries a maximum towing capacity of 9,300 lbs when properly equipped, paired with a Class IV hitch. As with every truck and SUV, the rating swings by engine, drivetrain, cab and bed configuration, and rear axle ratio — so two 2022 Ford Expeditions on the same lot can be rated thousands of pounds apart. Match your trailer to the lowestrelevant limit (towing capacity, payload, GCWR, and hitch rating), and verify against the sticker inside the driver's-side door jamb.
