Highlander is overpriced. People say Toyota is better which in fact is a myth. Dollar to dollar value, Ford Explorer is by far a much better SUV than Highlander.
@@JM-db8ez I was driving an Edge at the time and I let her drive and she fell in love. So I took her to a Ford dealer to test drive some cars and made her test drive a few cars. A use Toyota Sequoia, 2 Ford Explorers and an Edge. Out of the ones she test drove only the one Explorer had a heated steering wheel and it was white with chrome. Sold.
@@sbacon92 Used cars, not hybrids or maybe lower trim models--so yeah, probably missed out. My Highlander Hybrid (Limited) has it so it's there but I'm sure it's not available in older models/lower trim levels.
Do you feel this car looks a bit dated? Look very similar to our company’s F 150. Lincoln Navigator will be the step up for the game. Is the second row middle cup tray removable? Also how do you compare the Toyota safety 2.0 to this co pilot? Which is better control in your opinion and what make you say that ? Thanks
Ah choices, choices, choices! I like the styling of the Ford better too than the ridiculous grill of the Toyota. But when it comes to practicality I would have to give the nod to Toyota, for fuel mileage and reliability. Great video as always!
@@EverydayReviews2022 Yes! And Jay Leno on his RUclips channel featured a Ford Focus that was equipped with a large capacitor instead of a battery, that gave the vehicle a boost like an electric assist, but without a heavy battery to drag around. I wonder whatever happened to that design that never made it to the market. That video was about five years ago.
True story: my buddy gets a trade-in value at Bergstrom Land Rover for his 2016 Cadillac XT5 with 80,000+ miles of $12,000 towards a 2021 Evoque. Meanwhile on the 2nd of this year I traded in our 2013 Highlander Hybrid Limited with 150,000+ miles for a 2021 HH Platinum awd and get $11,000 at a local Toyota dealer
i dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
Hi, like videos. I am interested in buying the same car but after looking at several reviews and a lot them mentioning transmission issues and reliability. Do you still recommend this suv?is the transmission of this car different from the non hybrid? Thanks.
Capless fuel door is handy until it breaks. The outer door on my f150 went broken just over 60k when the warranty is up. It made the outer door flap freely without the tension to shut. Searched online and find it to be a common thing for Ford. Took it apart and found it to be a design flaw. Made some modification myself and now it's permanent fix.
THANKS !! was wondering about the wireless charging and if it would fit my iPhone Max :). do you know what the the dimensions of the trunk are LxW? I really want to get the ST but may end up with the F150 due to the space in the back
I love the new Explorer, and I am so excited they introduced a Hybrid that can tow, but I will never buy a Ford. I own a Taurus and my sunroof is leaking, screen malfunctions sometimes, and my transmission has the occasional rough shift. And it only has 85,000 miles. I'll take the Highlander!
@@jadedjay7861 It's not biased considering the Explorer had so many issues when it was first launched. Ford isn't even the "American" choice anymore, so there's no reason to stick with them.
I plan to upgrade my car. I like Toyota 4Runner. But now I compare Toyota 4Runner vs Ford Explorer. Could you please give me advice and recommend which one is better? I ll use car for towing rv trailer 3500lb for camping on weekend as well. Thank you so much.
The 4 Runner is getting a little old and I’d wait for a new version if that was on your list. Nothing wrong with it but you might just buy it now and next year a brand new one could come out.
You should do a behind the scenes of how you film these things, what equipment you use etc. It would be interesting to see how much time and how much work goes into shooting these kinds of videos.
Sou brasileiro de Fortaleza, tenho uma Explorer 1993 americana, gosto muito dela, infelizmente a Ford anunciou que vai encerrar a produção das fabricas brasileiras, vendo essas maquinas modernas, adoraria ser presenteado com uma delas .
I love the Explorer clean design but my experiences with head gasket and transmission failureS, electrical failureS before reaching 100k on multiple vehicles I have owned during 90s'-20's, I gave up on the brand.
@@jadedjay7861 The Explorer is a nightmare SUV once it reaches 80k miles, problem after problem. It’s ridden with a long list of recalls, who needs that…
Everyone makes a big deal over the stupid gas cap system, I would rather have the cap, too... however I would never drive nor own any vehicle with the dumbass panoramic roofs
Including the family gives an element to this review you don't get elsewhere. And for a "family" vehicle, this is a great approach.
I have been in the new Explorer a few times. I am quite impressed with its quality and how solid it feels over bumps.
Great job. Might be shopping used plugin hybrid explorer later in Europe
Highlander is overpriced. People say Toyota is better which in fact is a myth. Dollar to dollar value, Ford Explorer is by far a much better SUV than Highlander.
The comparison was the hybrids. Ford's hybrid Explorer is minimal in the 'hybrid' part. The Highlander is a better hybrid than the Explorer.
Usually foreigners think Toyota is better. They're just biased against 🇺🇸
Thank you for your review.
Your evaluations are precise and succinct! Great job 👏🏻!!!
Thanks!
I absolutely love the heated steering wheel on this. I don’t have the 2021 but I got the 2020. 👍
I took my mom to get a new car and what sold her on the Explorer was the heated steering wheel.
@@sbacon92 The highlander hybrid also has that, if that's the big selling point. lol

I totally agree! And yes, too many choices. Now if this could be really interesting if either one were available as a PHEV.

Yes stupid crazy resale value for Toyota.
Toyota gets the nod for reliability and resale value.

Did you actually get the 9L/100km that it is rated for?
Hi, like videos. I am interested in buying the same car but after looking at several reviews and a lot them mentioning transmission issues and reliability. Do you still recommend this suv?is the transmission of this car different from the non hybrid? Thanks.
My sister bought a used ford exploerer and the transmission went out 2 months later. (No warranty)

I like the interior review, though I would like you to have sat in the second row too, as well more info on the hybrid to gas switching
Thank you for your video. I really liked it. Is the explorer really going 700km.
Thank you for your review
Great review

Love that color, let me know which blue is it. I believe there are 2 types.
I was shocked to see this is in the top 10 Lowest Scoring cars sold in the US. Many Issues reported.
I love my explorer. But I might go Toyota because the reliability
😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣
What about cabin noise and ride quality. I find that Toyota ride is very bumpy and road noise are more noticable.
love from India

Don't base your opinion off of one failed vehicle. That would make your opinion biased at best. I've 16 Fords and ZERO issues.
@@jadedjay7861 It's not biased considering the Explorer had so many issues when it was first launched. Ford isn't even the "American" choice anymore, so there's no reason to stick with them.
So what is the price?
If they are the same price, remember Toyota has great resale, this not so much.
Any mention of how the price compares to Highlander?
Yes, we mentioned they're almost exactly the same price Limited to Limited Trim.

Love how the new explorer goes back to a rwd platform
Just don’t like the front

great car, are your wife VietNam
No.
When it comes to hybrid technology there is Toyota and then there is everybody else. Stay away from Explorer in any trim.
True.
False. Toyota is foreign 🗑
LOL
Kids will always pick the new toy. Put them in the new Toyota Highlander Hybrid, I bet they'll pick that over the Explorer.
The picked the better choice. The Ford. It's more powerful and has more cargo space. At the end of the day, The Ford is 💯 better

She's right about the screen! Looks like an old Samsung tablet...

Why do they bother is beyond me
still 2020 Rav 4 BESTT

Awful. Forget about it 🤮

Ugly interior especially the infotainment system
