Hello All. I am closing in on a purchase decision on a 2021 Ford Explorer and wanted to get some feedback on a few items ...
I am struggling with the Platinum vs. ST decision. A smooth ride and comfortable front row seats are a major priority. But I really love the look and added speed of the ST. Which leads to these questions ...
1) How much smoother is the ride on the Platinum vs. the ST?
2) is there any difference in seat comfort between these two trims?
Finally, like many, reading about the 2020 launch problem made me super nervous about acquiring a 6th generation Explorer. Now that we are very late in the 2021 model year, what is the experience on how many of the early 2020 quality problems have been resolved? Is it worth waiting for the 2022's.
Thanks in advance for whatever feedback/comments might be offered. It would really help me with my purchasing decision. I am also looking at the Volvo XC90 but as a Ford Expedition owner now, I'd like to stay Ford if I can.
