Prose overview
The 2023 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 2023 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.
