2H is two wheel drive , power to rear wheels only , it's fine for on a dry road
The automatic four wheel drive setting has power going to the back wheels and if the back wheels " slip " it transfers some of the power to the front wheels also so it's better on a wet road , or snow , or gravel etc. but it can also be used on a dry paved road if you want to
You get better gas mileage in 2H because the transfer case isn't powered up
All 4x4's Ford Expeditions are not AWD... I have a 1998 Ford Expedition XLT and it has (2H/AWD/4L/4H). But, my brother has a 2000 Ford Expediton EB (AWD/4L/4H).
There should be a dial next to the temperature controls that say... 2wd/awd/4l/4h

I had the same problem with my 99 AWD mountaineer. I was told the front differential was bad.
Anything with AWD. Bigger the better.
3.5 Awd
AWD means all wheels at different speed. normal driving condition 4 lock means all 4 wheels at same speed, offroading & straight driving, no turnings.
If you have AWD the V6 should get 15/20 and the V8 should get 14/19. If you have RWD the V6 should get 15/21 and the V8 should get 15/19 city/hwy.

AWD is using all of the wheels on the car 4WD is selected and not used all the time, only when your driving in dirt or snow so basically hard terrain
It is not necessary to have 4X4 tires if you are driving an AWD vehicle. You might be interested in having a good snow tire on your vehicle though depending on what climate you live in.
