Will there be an Explorer RS?

Just curious what you guys think. There's a couple areas that could be massaged for some pretty nice upgrades to make an RS model. Ford could easily fit monoblock brake calipers, an LSD, add some extra power, and maybe throw some sportier seats and or materials in with a bit more power.

You guys think there's any chance of it happening? With the ST sort of splitting the difference between the Durango RT and SRT, and not having any other real competitors, is it even feasible? Or more likely for Ford to make an ST version of the Escape?

They could easily do it.
Coyote V8
High output ecoboost from the raptor

I doubt they ever would though...

Ford did have some patent drawings with a V8 and AWD for this platform. Throw in the predator engine from the GT500 and you have an answer for the Trackhawk.
