Report: Jeep Building In-House Customization Facility Near Wrangler Factory

You’ve probably heard of Ferrari Tailor Made (and other programs like it) where prospective owners go to make their (already quite special) cars even more so, crafting one-of-a-kind creations with special details and unique paint schemes. It looks like Jeep is working on its own version of the concept. How do we know? A deal between Fiat Chrysler and the city of Toledo for a plot of land that will be used for a customization facility was announced on Friday. According to The Toledo Blade, the city of Toledo will sell FCA a plot of land just a few miles from Jeep’s assembly plant there (where the Wrangler and Gladiator are currently built).

2021 Ford Expedition XL STX: No Third-Row Seat, Huge Cargo Hold

Say you want a full-size SUV but not three rows of seating, which usually come standard in sport-utility vehicles so large. Where should you turn? Maybe try the 2021 Ford Expedition XL STX, a new entry-level variant that chucks the big SUV’s third-row seat, leaving only two rows for up to five people (driver included) ahead of a massive, 105-cubic-foot cargo area in the rear. Ditching the Expedition’s rearmost seats takes a chunk of the price out of the equation. The 2021 Expedition XL STX starts at $51,690. The STX’s price is thus $2,815 cheaper than the previous bottom feeder, the $54,505 XLT. Next to saving a few bucks and giving up eight-passenger capacity for five seats, Expedition XL STX buyers give up little else outside of satellite radio and some safety tech. As ...
