All my previous rides have been AWD. This is the first time I have a 4WD. So, I normally just leave my Drive Mode set to NORMAL. In the past - I didn't worry about driving through the snow because I knew I had AWD. Do I have to select SLIPPERY if I want my ride to be in 4WD? Thanks gang.

First thing I thought of! The dreaded "RIF" notices. Brings back memories of working for the Federal Government. :)

Installed 4D Tech October 20th. So far - absolutely no problems.

Looks like there are no "tips or tricks" available. :)

AUTOSTOP: 2025 Ford Explorer Autostop Eliminator $109.99 Installs beneath the wireless accessory charger. 4DTECH: Explorer (2025) Start / Stop Eliminator $99.99 Installs in passenger side foot well below glove box.

Understood but I simply HATE the way the car feels when the starter kicks in. I never had a concern about it causing damage - I just don't like the way it feels when it kicks in...

Thanks a bunch.

What is the purpose of the "lock" symbol? Thanks!

UPDATE: Now a proud owner of a 2025 Ford Explorer St-Line License Plate Bracket. Thanks for everyone's help (and suggestions).

FWIW - I ordered one (4DTECH: Explorer (2025) Start / Stop Eliminator Ford $99.99 USD), install took 3 minutes and it has worked perfectly since.

Obstacle detection alert sensor(s) would let me know when I got close to an object (right and left side of car). Lately, it is as though it isn't as sensitive. When my mirror would get a certain distance from the garage entry - it would scream and display a visual - I am not seeing that...

U Unfortunately, it is for a "License Plate Brackets Front for Ford Explorer 2020-2023." I need one for the 2025. Thanks!

That's an option. Thanks!

My oh my - never in my wild dreams thought it would be this hard to find a OEM License Plate Bracket.

Connected and now LIVING THE DREAM!

Cool and thanks for the information.

Dang - didn't know that (radar trap detection). You guys are really swinging me over to Google Maps.

You brought up a good point (map updating). I am very close to just going along with Google Maps. I used it twice this week and it is just the learning curve (for this old old fart) that I hate dealing with... SMILE Thanks for your reply.

Interesting. When I test drove my ride it brought up Google and insisted that I log into Google. Maybe, if I ignored it - it would default to Ford's Navigation. Why must Ford make it so hard! SMILE Thanks for the suggestion.

ALL my past fords (last 7) used Garmin Maps for Navigation. I "heard" you don't have to use Google Maps. IF that is the case - what do I have to do to use something like Garmin (in place of Google Maps)? Thanks!
