New Ford Explorer....Good, Bad, Ugly?
 
Anyone have any input on the new body style (2011 I think) Explorer?

I've rented a few on the road. Drive nice, comfortable and lots of bells.

Disappointed they don't have a DRW version with a brake controller though. :drink:

They're called "Exploders" for a reason...

Because they explode their head gaskets when they overheat even a few degrees.

My wife and I own a 2012 with eco-boost, its one fine machine, and gets about 24 mpg's around town. She loves the seats and all the extras.

Doesnt any engine have that possibility really? I mean to say an engine faults more than others in red line, doesnt mean its bad.
