- '13 Explorer Sport
Been lurking on the forums for a while, while making my decision.
I ordered my new 2013 Explorer Sport yesterday (6.29). I am happy to be sizing down from my Expedition.
This will be my 3rd Explorer that I have purchased new from the Dealer and my 8th Ford vehicle that includes 3 Mustangs, 3 Explorers, 1 Expedition, and an Escort (first ride).
I am trading in my 2006 King Ranch Expedition. The dealer gave me a great price for it.
Now the waiting begins, the dealer informed my that builds do not start until early September. OUCH.... 90+ days.
Went with White Platinum Tri-Coat with Charcoal/Sienna interior, 402a Package, Dual Moonroof, Tow Package, and second row buckets.
Timeline:
6/28 Placed Order
6/29 DORA Number received.
... Whole lot of waiting...
July has come and gone
August has come and gone
September has come and gone
9/30 VIN received
10/18 Scheduled build date
10/12 Window Sticker became available
10/26 Picked up the Sport
