Listed as a 1998 model on the Cinema Vehicles website:

Does that make sense Neptune?

That link says 1997.

Trying out a capitalized name again? ;)

What the...it says 1998 on top. And on the main page inventory list it is listed as a 1998 model. I'd provide a link but that website doesn't let you link back to specific pages. I guess back to 1997 it is then :/

Don't forget it's Ford Model Years, not based on reality.

Well generally we go on model years in the US, not build date. And dsl, it's not just Ford. That's just how it's done across the board here.

The Expedition nameplate does not include a trim level name, and the bumpers appear to have been replaced, which indicate a 17K Fleet Special Service Package.

The one in the link appears suspiciously like a rear-wheel drive only. Not all-wheel drive. Also it has different wheels; I believe it to be this one: /vehicle_344470-Ford-Expedition-UN93-1997.html

Perhaps they have an assortment of old government/emergency rescue/police/fire Expeditions?

Definitely the same one. Cinema Vehicles also supplies cars for The Mentalist. And here it is again in different colors:

The one thing that gives me pause is the Expedition in the main capture (here) is definitely fitted with full-time ControlTrac all-wheel drive. The front end denotes this as it sits up high.

The other Expedition’s exhibit the low-slung front end, consistent with being rear-wheel drive only. There is also the matter of different alloy wheels.

A spokesperson from Cinema Vehicles told me that they do a lot of modifications to their vehicles across time, both interior and exterior. Just look at how they keep changing the lightbars, for example.

Maybe its just an optical illusion, or it has the 4-corner load leveling pneumatic suspension ...
