- 2016 Explorer Limited
I have already ordered a 2016 Limited with the 301A and tow package. My dealer advised me that they can locate a 2016 Sport model with the 401A and that it will be very similar. I have some concerns and I thought other explorer members could help with.
The explorer with replace our Town and Country that was just totaled. This is our first venture into a SUV since having 3 kids. There are the differences I noticed but hopefully you can help me uncover others. The major advantage of the Sport is that I do not have to wait 6-8weeks and since we are down to a sedan it is really appealing.
1) Sport tune suspension- Is this for better towing or is it going to a more rough ride? Is it noticeably different.
2) 3.5 Ecoboost- Based on the website this does not get as the MPG that the regular 3.5 gets. That's seems backwards to me but wanted your input on the matter
3) Badging/Wheels- I like the Sport look better than the Limited.
I don't see any options lost when going to the sport but there are a lot of options so I may be missing something.
Thanks for your help,
Joe
