You can’t unsee a Ford Expedition. It has become a sign of prestige and power in the Philippines. Its presence is almost presidential, elitist. It became a common sight on the road through the years as it got bigger, more comprehensive, and classier. And you, in your simple mind, would think what kind of engine is needed to power that moving city block of American ingenuity and class.
