Got outsold by the Honda CR-V two years running, after being the best selling SUV on the planet for more than a decade. Kudos to Ford- the world's changing, and they're changing with it.

i understand that but the explorer shouldn't be in the same category as the crv not even close to it. but i do understand what you are saying. thats part of the reason they built the escape...to compete with the crv class

[countryboytn]

I dunno... I kinda like it. It's kinda cute! :D :rofl:

Is that what he tells you every time you drop your pants smilieneenar

[Raptor22]

I liked the 4 door Bronco II versions better... :(

[TexasNomad]

I don't see whats not to like about it, its really cool and futuristic looking :D

It shares its chassis with the mundane as hell Ford 500, which got it from the Volvo S60 of the late 1990s. So basically it has the same chassis as a 90s Volvo... :p

It looks cool, but besides the turbo engines. Its kinda crap...[confused]

I think it looks alright and Im sure it meets the needs of an explorer owner. 4WD/AWD, plenty of power with the I-4 Turbo or V-6, and plenty of room. Now a days I don't think many people buying those are looking to cross rivers or crawl over rocks. My girlfriend had the Mazda CX-7 with the turbo I-4 and that thing hauled *** with good mileage

Really? My stepbrother has a CX-7, and the only thing he doesn't like is the mileage from the turbo I-4.

My aunt just bought an Acura RDX, also with a turbo 4...and her only gripe is mileage, too. (Right around 20...)

[O'Rattlecan]

I could get used to that. I'm not really in the explorer market and won't be till I pop out kids. This probably not truckish enough for me.

We really dont need to hear about that.... :p :rofl:

It's like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Junior... :p

[RangerPilot]

I can't stand it. Looks disgusting.







And it has no mirrors...

[tomtoc]

i guess i never really understood the reason for the explorer. i have no facts to back this up but...

-seems like the same size as the expedition with the same mileage, all while being a little more cramped. my sister has an 02ish explorer and it's nearly identical in size/feel to my mom 99 expedition.

i know the explorer sells like hotcakes (or used to), but why can't someone pick between the escape or expedition.

99ish down explorers...understandable, but once they made them bigger having 3 models(expedition, explorer, escape) seems like a waste

'smiliedoh' Where do you go from here???''wtf' :scratch: smiliecrazy' :confused:

[john112deere]

You probably already know this...but people don't buy Acuras for the mileage.
