Red Horse Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Again, sad they won't bring this to US. Not everyone wants a "crossover" SUV. Amazes me they stick with the Flex which sells like 2000 vehicles a month if they are lucky but they won't build this here. Wife had three Explorers and when it came time to replace here 2004, having driven my daughter-in laws new Explorer, wanted no part of it. Claimed only SUV she could see out of was Pilot. I found a 2010 Explorer Limited with 27,000 miles, 3v-4.6 V-8, 6 speed auto. And Ford CPO. She loves it but what do I do next-besides divorce over a car?

A crossover SUV is car platform-based.The Everest has body-on-frame arhitecture like a proper truck, giving it the rugged properties of a Jeep Wrangler, Toyota 4Runner, Land Cruiser 200 and Land Cruiser Prado (U.S. market Lexus GX).

Wobblin-Goblin Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 That thing looks really nice. We still have a 2003 Explorer 4.0L that we bought new, and it's been the best vehicle we've ever owned. I wish Ford would bring the Everest here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
