Picked up my Explorer Sport in Ignot Silver on Saturday. Just shy of 6 weeks. Let me tell you that it was well worth the wait.

I ordered her with XPLAN pricing.
402A
Mud flaps
cross bars
all weather matts

Didn't want a sunroof. That is why I had to order one.

I got out of a 2011 Ford Edge AWD SEL that my wife absolutely loved. We needed a 7 passenger vehicle again. Even though vehicle in my opinion is not a vehicle I could take on long road trips with my family to Florida lets say, it is perfect for the 6 of us to go out to dinner in.

3 of my 4 boys are 6'3 and the other is 5'11. There is't enough room for a long drive for all of us.

The ride is smooth. The acceleration is amazing. The cornering is outstanding. My wife absolutely loves it.

Coming from a 2011 Edge she did not have to relearn the features in the car with the MFT. There is more room shoulder to shoulder in the from seating area.

Still getting used to the remote start and the push button start. I love the look. The aggressive stance.

I will not "modify" her at all.. That is not my thing. I love the stock look.

By far I feel this is the nicest vehicle I have ever owned.

I will post some pictures when I get a chance.

Thanks Crystal for all of your help!

This site rocks!

Peace!

Great news. I'm waiting for almost the exact same silver vehicle myself.

Yes, pics please.
 






Man, I wish mine could be so fast. I'm a few days short of one month and my scheduled build week is scheduled for the week of 5/13 and an inital ETA of 5/25 :(
 






Wow that was fast. I ordered mine 2/23 with a pick-up eta of 5/5! Good luck and I hope you're right" it's worth the wait".
