I have owned and worked on Ford products for years and I am now driving an 07 Explorer 4.0 liter. 1 transmission and multiple soft parts and switches >300.000.
Klm. and still looks and runs great.
I am a Ford fan and will continue to be one, however the Rxplorer is looking dated. Come on you guys time for a Ford Home run. How about a totally resigned Ford Explorer. Hey how bout a diesel or a hybrid

Kia EV3
VS
Think of the Ford Explorer EV as the big, brash American SUV that brings proper space, towing potential and long-distance confidence, while the Kia EV3 is the clever, compact EV that packs smart tech, efficiency and value into a far more city-friendly package. Choose the Explorer if you need family-hauling range and road-presence; pick the EV3 if you want nimble handling, lower running costs and more money left over for coffee stop detours.
Ford Explorer EV
Ford Mustang Mach-E
VS
The Ford Explorer EV swaps the Mustang Mach‑E’s athletic poise for SUV practicality, three-row space and a taller stance — ideal if you need family duties, towing and sensible range without sacrificing slick tech. But if you crave sharper handling, a sportier silhouette and a more emotional drive, the Ford Mustang Mach‑E remains the more thrilling, style-forward choice for buyers who want smiles per mile.
