    2022 Wireless Charger too small for some phones

    Its extremely slow wireless charging anyways, you're not missing out on anything. If they offered 10+watt wireless charging, then yeah it would be something be upset about.

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    The thing about this recall, it only states the 3.3l engines for the Police. None for the 3.0l ecoboost. On the Explorer's side, it doesnt state specific ones, so could mean all of them including the Limited, XLT and ST-Line. Im pretty sure none of the ST/Platinum owners from 2020 will ever...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    You're not wrong, you just used the wrong trim. That's like using a Platinums performance numbers for the ST. Weight and suspension play a big role in both aviators.... MT tested the Aviator and ST as well.... ST had similar numbers vs C&D's, the Reserve on the other hand were much different vs...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    And I said 5-6k more aka Reserve. As I stated, MT tested two Aviator vehicles. A black label is 20k+ more and weights more. You're comparing a heavier more expensive vehicle. And yes, a drivers race...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    Not sure where you got a second slower? MT did a test on two Aviators, one had the Hybrid engine. Hybrid clocked the same 1/4 mile but faster trap speed vs the ST. The other Aviator was 2-3 tenths of a second slower vs both, which is almost nothing, still a drivers race. Both similar priced or...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    I take it if the ST had at least 450hp, this thread wouldnt even made? Performance numbers, the ST sits between the RT and SRT, closer to the SRT actually. Far as more interior space, believe it or not, the Explorer has more cargo space, seats up or down especially behind the 3rd row seat. Try...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    Hence my quotation marks. I like the Explorer's interior but there are pretty obvious misaligned areas as well as cheap plastics, most noticeable by the start button. The Durango just presents it better. How well it holds up with time is a different story. Im still fighting with the wind sound...

    Why we didn't buy an Explorer ST, and other various thoughts

    The ST is compared to the SRT since they're both the "sporty" version of their family. In reality, the ST is closer direct comparison to the RT, price point, power wise, options, etc. But the ST annihilates the RT in practically everything but towing, sound and "fit and finish".] So they rather...

    Went to do an oil change and found this ….

    I was here hoping it was a 10 MM socket lol Probably a tool that was left behind when it was being built

    Reconsidering Explorer ST

    We have a full jogger stroller and it fits behind the 3rd row. A bit snug, but it fits. If you want to add anything else though like a bag, itll barely fit one side but thats about it. Dont need to remove any adapters or anything either. Interesting about that, the new Aviators are advertised...

    Reconsidering Explorer ST

    Oh no doubt they will drop in price but dont think it will be a nice drop in price either, im sure itll hold very well. The Escalade V is a totally different luxury competitor, IMO, the Durango Hellcat is (was?) the best 3rd row bang for buck SUV. Escalades are already 100+k as is, cant imagine...

    Reconsidering Explorer ST

    If you're playing the waiting game for something cheaper or newer, you're never going to get anything. Something will always come up. Far as non sport models as powerful as the ST? Do you mean the Platinum and KR? If so, they are the more expensive higher trims with the 99.9% exact drivetrain...

    SYNC3 Build 22020/22048

    I never use Sync's 3 Nav as its slow and nowhere near as good in general vs the Google maps. Also the voice assistance from Sync 3 is horrible, never gets the right address. Full screen nav looks nice thats about it lol Sync 4 isnt much better, just a faster nicer looking Sync 3 but its UI and...

    SYNC3 Build 22020/22048

    Doesnt need much on the hardware, just needs to literally make the back up screen to show in a bigger area. Its just video signal. Android auto/carplay also, it is very possible to show it tad bigger than what it is. Subaru already did it with Carplay. Doesnt really rely on infotainment...

    Are Aviators Welcome?

    I believe those are options only on the higher trims. Could be wrong though.

    Premium Gas and Full Synthetic Oil..

    $5 here and jumping, other places nearby are at or close to $6. Its insane! And yes OP, premium all the time and full synthetic.

    Are Aviators Welcome?

    I have a Platinum lol I mean far as a mods community for the 3.0L, this place would possibly be the best place to go to.

    Explorer ST reducing the 60ft

    Exactly what @Exploderst those traps look to be from a stock ST. Your 1/4 mile times as well are not too far off from a stock ST either.
