No matter how it's set up, the 2002 Ford Expedition has a towing capacity of 8,100 pounds. To determine the maximum tongue weight, you divide this number by ten, giving you roughly 810 pounds. This places the '02 Expedition squarely in the "workhorse" category, as four tons should be sufficient for hauling most small and midsize trailers, campers, and tow-behinds, and even some larger ones. The smaller 4.6L engine can produce 291 lb-ft of torque, while the larger 5.4L can generate up to 350 lb-ft. Combined with a payload capacity ranging from 1,732 to 2,109 pounds, you'd be hard-pressed to find a task that the Expedition can't handle. If you require more capability, you'll likely need to consider heavy-duty trucks.
The features of the 2002 Ford Expedition differ depending on the model. It comes with a standard towing capacity of 8,100 pounds and a tongue weight of 810 pounds. The payload can range from 1,705 to 1,940 pounds, and the torque is either 291 lbs.-ft. at 3,450 rpm or 350 lbs.-ft. at 2,500 rpm.
