🔴Name SUVs that are better than Ford Explorer 🤔 🏆6 Reasons Why You SHOULD NOT Buy Subaru Forester WATCH HERE 👉 ruclips.net/video/TVnmd8qDiIY/видео.html
Wrong. 2024 Land Cruiser is hybrid only & takes premium fuel. Combined gas mileage is 23mpg. That is pitiful. 2024 4Runner has no hybrid, gas mileage isn't great either. The narrator of this video is too naive to say things that he said. This is most likely the last iteration of ICE engine for Explorer, so the trim levels offer will be significantly less - common practices in all manufactures. Explorefrbody frame started out as 2 rows. 3rd row is a token gesture to satisfy the market unless you modified the frame to produce a dedicated extended platform. Ti's is the last generation of Exploer ICE. It won't stay in market for long. New next generation battery production won't start until 2926 or after. This & other "new" Ford/Lincoln vehicles are just make shift. Streamlining the models helps to lower the cost. If you use mechanical AWD, no hybrid system can give relatively good mpg. Look at the 2924 Land Cruiser. To meet all the desirable features the narrator of this video, he should consider a BUS. End of the story.
I just bought a 2024 Explorer ST. And every time I drive it, the smile that comes across my face is worth every penny. I think it's a great vehicle. If I was worried about gas mileage. I would have bought something else.
None of the reasons mentioned in the video would prevent me from buying another Explorer. I was looking for reasons not to buy like reliability & quality issues. Glad I didn't hear any of those. Looks like a 2025 Explorer (number three) will be coming my way.
Kim, I just purchased my 3rd explorer. I had a 2015 & 2018 and now a 2024. The 15 & 18 were very good cars no problems. Ford did have shifting problems with the 10 speed transmission but that's been resolved. Any explorer built after January, 2024 has the problem corrected. My 24 only has about 1,700 miles on it so it's been fine and it's the most plush & comfortable of all 3. Take one for a drive and give it a good test to see for your self if you like it, don't let a salesman push you to buy be sure you want to buy one. If you never owned an SUV before be ready for it to feel a lot bigger than a sedan because it is. Good luck. Russ
We bought our 2016 explorer limited in 2017 with 4x,xxx miles. We have put another 100,000 miles on it. It has needed brakes, a couple batteries, 1 shock, 1 inner tie rod, 2 front lower control arms, water pump, intermediate steering shaft (just replaced), plus all the normal fluid changes/tune-up. It has taken us to Arizona and back twice for our two adoptions and numerous other trips out of state. In my opinion it has been super reliable….just be prepared to pay $2-3k for that water pump.
My Ford Explorer 2017 is still going extremely strong. I've had no problems with it compared to my husband's jeep. The crash rate is amazing. I'm sticking with the explorer. Paying for the gas doesn't bother me.
I own a 2020 Platinum and absolutely love it. I find only 2 of your reasons somewhat valid. #1. Price. #2. Off road capability. Yes, there is some truth to both of these. However, the fuel mileage is to be expected with a vehicle of this size/weight and the middle row has plenty of room unless your Hulk Hogan. I'm guessing the author has never owned one and is simply going by specs. Lastly, this latest generation of Explorer is the most attractive SUV out there with possibly the Land Rover running a close 2nd (my opinion). I have to agree mostly with the price. Outrageous but aren't they all pretty ridiculous?
I would have said "ok, I'll avoid this car" if he would have said "bad transmission" or "engine problems" or something expensive that needs to be replaced... but all these reasons were weak. For a minute, I thought this was an old man complaining about ticky-tac issues that are minimal. This car is great to have for long trips.
I have the Explorer sport, and I get on average 28 mpg, which is considered good for an SUV this size and this much power. Where did you source your info, from Toyota?
I will not finish your video and will not subscribe. Even though I am not American. I am still love Ford Cars. We have Ford Everest 2007 model still running
My transmission went out at 60,000 miles. Thankfully, I had the extended service plan and it’s getting completely replaced. But still, the transmission went out at 60,000 miles.
I drove an exporer as a hire vehicle for around 2,500 miles. Mixed driving, with some mountains and highways saw just over 28mpg. The Eco driving mode helped on the highway. The sport mode helped on the tight mountain roads. Overall it's a pleasant space to be in and out just goes to show how spolit we are with today's vehicles abilities that we can still pick fault in them.
Ok. Well. Where are the reasons for not buying? 1. I am buying one. 2. I pretty much have 3 girls to take to various sports, and shit. 3. Not really worry about paying for gas.
All nonesense. My 2023 I4 turbocharged Explorer and our last 2013 V6 Explorer both got better gas milaege than what you claim. Our 2023 XLT with heated leather seats and 4wd came in at $43k. The Toyota Highlander could not be had for under $50k with 4wd/awd.
The mpg isnt bad at all compared to vehicles that are similar in size, price, and capability. It is on the better end of efficency for them, which all do very similarly (honda pilot, chevy traverse, kia teluride, v6 grand cherokee) Yes a 3 row suv capable of towing around 5000lbs is going to get worse fuel economy than a civic.
excuse me...but WTH are you talking about with economy vs competition? and i am NO ford fan, especially since they went woke and sold their reliability soul to the EV madness. but please NOBODY offers a large SUV with economy unless you put a ridiculous powertrain in it or go hybrid. and the competition are horrible driving refrigerators out of control on roads or under stress of added weight. and please, don't bring up the MOST unreliable vehicles...the koreans.
The creator of this video hasn't own one. This explorer generation is the best one built and one of the best in it's class. I have own the previous generation and I see why it's designed the way it is. No.1 best crash test rating No.2 performance No.3 one of the best looking SUV in it's class.
*ponies (only one 'n') Also, reduced trim options have zero long-term impact on anything with the vehicle. It's a stretch to call that a reason not to buy one.
just spent 10 min of my personal time... all these size models have the exact same gas mileage if your comparing the same engine sizes.. and it's the only one with that third row except for the cheaply made Telluride
What is this guy talking about? All the mid size SUVs get around this MPG. Pilot 19/27 Durango v6 19/26 Pathfinder 20/27 Traverse 18/27. It's really not far off with loads better performance. You comparing it to a compact car?
Also, reason 5 is just stupid. If you’re looking for a Hybrid, you would look elsewhere since as you say Explorer does not come in hybrid. so it’s not a valid reason. Also, no one has complained about about my third row, it’s fine for occasional use.
LOL, No one buying a 400HP SUV is worried about gas mileage.🙄 Also high Price tag? Find another 400HP 4WD/AWD SUV for 60K. You won't find it at Jeep that's for sure, as there you will have to pay $70 to $80K+, also their company is in crazy shambles right now so good luck when ya need any warranty service. Everyone else is mostly using 4 cylinders.

2025 Toyota 4Runner or 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser or 2024 Lexus GX550.

i have same vehicle love it!
wait until water pump fails then send us a face picture
@@davidr-u3r sounds like you had a bad experience with yours or never bought one.
I don't agree with any of your 6 reasons not to buy the Explorer. I do have my own reasons and that is, it does not come in a two row ST trim.
None of the reasons mentioned in the video would prevent me from buying another Explorer. I was looking for reasons not to buy like reliability & quality issues. Glad I didn't hear any of those. Looks like a 2025 Explorer (number three) will be coming my way.
I want one so bad, but my brother keeps telling me there are no good. Should I listen or nah😩

This is what happens when someone only reads specs…
It’s the best selling suv sold in America for a reason.
And not in the rest of the World....
@@IanCorfield-rk4cewhat does that have to do with the price of tea in china?
They harvesttea in Kenya not China.
@@IanCorfield-rk4ce they sell tea in china
It seems you dont like the explorer. Your reasons are weak to say the least.
I still love the st models. Nothing that was said will keep me from buying the 2025 st Ford Explorer
The ford explorer is great

Oh well I just bought me another one yesterday 😂😂😂😂
I will not finish your video and will not subscribe. Even though I am not American. I am still love Ford Cars. We have Ford Everest 2007 model still running
Interesting that you mentioned 4 trim levels but only talked about 3. Moving on to the next video without finishing this one is a good idea.
May 2024 I purchased my new Explorer Timberline, love it...glad I bought it.
I just ordered my 2025 explorer
My transmission went out at 60,000 miles. Thankfully, I had the extended service plan and it’s getting completely replaced. But still, the transmission went out at 60,000 miles.
I own a 2022 Explorer Timberline and it has been a great vehicle. Ride, handling, performance and comfort are all very good.
People looking for 400hp aren't worried about MPGs
I mean the other option is a highly stressed 4 banger. The 6 is really the only logical option.
I drove an exporer as a hire vehicle for around 2,500 miles. Mixed driving, with some mountains and highways saw just over 28mpg.
The Eco driving mode helped on the highway.
The sport mode helped on the tight mountain roads.

They say if you’re worried about mpg you can’t afford it anyway
I don't know adults that would attempt to sit in the 3rd row. lol Its for kids

Their patent pending speeding surveillance system makes me cancel them...
Real men don’t cry about mpg when buy a truck or suv but continue …..
Cry, no. Gas mileage is certainly something to consider when vehicle shopping.
Police department have been using Ford Explorer for a while, and they are on the road 24/7, so i think it is a reliable car.
The mpg isnt bad at all compared to vehicles that are similar in size, price, and capability. It is on the better end of efficency for them, which all do very similarly (honda pilot, chevy traverse, kia teluride, v6 grand cherokee)

Why are you only showing the 2025 Explorer?
Ford Explorer is the best...it's the most safest suv to drive...
The creator of this video hasn't own one. This explorer generation is the best one built and one of the best in it's class. I have own the previous generation and I see why it's designed the way it is. No.1 best crash test rating No.2 performance No.3 one of the best looking SUV in it's class.
The 4 cylinder must be good on gas
*ponies (only one 'n')
Also, reduced trim options have zero long-term impact on anything with the vehicle. It's a stretch to call that a reason not to buy one.
I would consider it because of its Excellent crash test safety 😂🎉❤❤
just spent 10 min of my personal time... all these size models have the exact same gas mileage if your comparing the same engine sizes.. and it's the only one with that third row except for the cheaply made Telluride
I thought you gonna talk about isolation in latest models
In realty a nearly pure commercial for the nice SUV !
My 2013 is not rear wheel drive

Love my explorer! Awful review
You must be working for Toyota! This is made in USA. I love my EX!!!!
These are pretty dumb reasons I'm about to pick a 2022 for 20k and none of your reasons seems.... Reasonable to me.
Also, reason 5 is just stupid. If you’re looking for a Hybrid, you would look elsewhere since as you say Explorer does not come in hybrid. so it’s not a valid reason. Also, no one has complained about about my third row, it’s fine for occasional use. This review is ridiculous.
Lol😂 if you can spend 60 on a car you ain't worried about the mpg
what SUV has better gas mileage lol.. your opinion seems personal
New 2025 Ford Explorers Are in Early This Year
I don’t agree with your reasons because they are based in your personal opinion.
Pretty weak argument, if you can even call it one…
Spec reviews are the worst
Rename this 6 'of the stupidest' reasons why you shouldn't buy a ford explorer. down voted.
Drivel.
RUclips junk content.
The 10 speed transmission issues is enough for me to avoid this SUV.
