Anychance they(Ford) would ever put the5.0 in explorer?

[Jareksdad]

Read that somewhere and was wondering if its a possibility?
Something like trackhawk/durango ones..
Just a curious thought as a new ST owner who also has a newer 5.0 f150.

I’d say a super super super super small chance of that ever happening.

I figured so since the explorer already does well with the ecoboost.
I thought maybe a slight chance with ford saying they are getting heavier into racing.

We can always hope. Ford would have to jump through a lot of hoops to do it though. Would have to completely redesign the platform (Coyote won’t fit in the engine bay), go through EPA testing, and engineer everything else to work with the new engine.

Zero chance. It will not physically fit the engine bay.
