    I rent alot of Explorers for business travel and it is a good value for what you get. The main issues is the drivetrain, it was never smooth and kinda irky jerky in its handling. The Ecoboost versions had great power but is very rough reving and vibrates. The transmission is not smooth but does shift quickly. Infotainment has always worked flawlessly. I love the Intelligent Adaptive cruise control, because this system dectects speed limit signs and adjust accordingly with a threashold that you can set. Really nice feature and helps keep you away from getting speeding tickets in roads that has cops camping out exatcly where the speed limit changes to catch you of guard and earn them revenue.

      I’ve had two STs and a Hybrid. ST was less lumpy and coarse than the hybrid once the ICE was kicked on. Always wondered what the 2.3t would be like.

    I bought new a 2010 Ford Escape in Aug. 2009 and it's still running fast with the original 3L V6 Ecoboost turbo that has been very dependable. This video's model Explorer with the same colors is a top pick for a new purchase. Yes, Explorer is the top cop car in and around Chicago.

      Yep, especially when you compare it to the competitors. He said the front looks very truck-like, but I think it actually looks closer to a CX90. I'm not a huge fan of the rear as it looks like they're trying to copy Kia in some ways. The interior looks a lot nicer, but considering Ford has so many recalls, I wouldn't be surprised if this gets released with a couple o for that new infotanment system or not. Hopefully they've worked out all the mechanical issues they had with the recent batch of Ford recalls.

    SUV's of this price range need to have 12v cigarette ports accessible in each of the 3 rows, on top of the USB charging outlets. I can't believe some manufacturers don't have ANY on their cars and have opted for only USB-C, which is ridiculous. I also think modern vehicles should come with a standard 120v outlet of ideally at least 180w, if not 250 to 400W that are often available in some trucks. Once you get used to having one of these in your vehicle, you won't be able to understand how you ever lived without one!

    I think that the Ford's longitudinal engine placement won't allow it to manipulate the 2nd/3rd row like you can with a Grand Highlander/Telluride+Palisade, which are transverse mounted engines, which can be 'pushed' a bit more forward. Something to think about.
