    Dilemma 2016 or wait on 2017

    Hi guys! I was picking up our new 2015 Mustang GT convertible tonight and the dealer I was at had a 2016 Explorer Platinum parked next to our new car. I was able to take a look along with a few others. Seeing the car in person versus photos was surprising. I like the rear end however the...

    Trying to get an idea

    This is perfect....The only "issue" I may have is changing from a white car to a royal blue. LOL. I can definitely make this happen with help from his best friend and my family. Great idea!!!! :D

    Trying to get an idea

    Hi Everyone, Hope all is going well! I have to say that the Sport is still awesome. I LOVE my Explorer- as it is just a year old and has 12k miles on it. I wanted to know if anyone was surprised (by spouse, etc.) with a new vehicle and how was it done? I know the vehicle itself will be...

    Remote start smart phone app ?

    since I have a new job that has me working in the auto industry, I happened to stop by the Lincoln dealership (sister store). And the Ford rep was there, when Bob and I were discussing what I wanted as end result, she piped up and mentioned that there were new parts and showed the Ford parts...

    Remote start smart phone app ?

    That's great info. . Thank you! There's no issue with cell service, my car is open to the elements for now, we have plans to do construction. So until then, this is what I need to do, before it hits 100 plus ridiculous temperatures here. Thank you, now I need to call Lincoln to schedule. Yay

    Windows stutter...

    Hi Boost, Ironically I can speak to this. I had parked the Explorer in an effort to save mileage. My husband drove it and immediately called me to ask about the shuddering windows. I had not noticed additionally I don't know if this was something new. We made an appointment at the dealer...

    How to get better Gas Mileage?

    So you are saying in your 2015 you have 2500 miles now? Just asking as I hit 1200 miles and our 14 sport is getting 18-19 mpg. 18 when my husband drives it and 19 when I do. (I drive A LOT further than my husband does). I have noticed when filling with premium versus mid-grade there is a...

    Lemon Law

    Here's just the scoop.... our truck does fall into Arizona lemon law. However we ordered a 2015 F150 Ecooboost. Our new truck is on its way. It is in Kansas City en route to Arizona. So, I have parked the truck until I need to make a hay run....so its barely being driven at all. We are...

    2013 Explorer or wait for the 2016?

    I am always a fan of buy what you want, however I wanted to point out something regarding your argument...you are avoiding the 2011-2012 to allow the buys to be worked out, however you are looking into the 2016 model year...wouldn't that contradict that same point as it is within that working...

    Lincoln aviator

    We had a 2008 Lincoln Navigator and the only difference is cosmetic. I had sync added to the Navigator since it didn't come with it, and was that a nightmare. It would work half the time and since it was added the Lincoln dealer (fiesta Lincoln) was snooty about repairing it. In the end they...

    Cracked Fog Light

    I finally replaced the cracked fog light, which was $62.00. The local dealerships wanted almost $100.00. Since we have a vehicle on order I have an "in" at the dealership which we ordered the truck from (not geographically close by). Anyways, I ordered the Lamin-X which should be here next...

    Cracked Fog Light

    Hi everyone! When this thread resurfaced - I had to check and sure enough my drivers side fog light is cracked into hundreds of pieces. I called the dealer and was on hold forever. Does anyone have a part # handy? I will order a lens protector of some sort. Sigh...

    flashing third brake light

    We have added this to our Mustang and love it. For the size of the module I cannot figure out how to install in Explorer or F-150. I agree they capture your attention. If you find anything please post as I would love to add these.

    Possible New Owner Questions

    I would agree with the post above. We have a 14 Sport, and last weeks road trip to California was great...until hubby said he missed the room of our Odyessey. (That almost killed the trip...lol). Before my 2-2014 explorers we had an Odyessey which I dispise except for the additional room...

    Explorer Gas Mileage - including Ecoboost

    Hi All, We just returned from Disney, we left Sunday the 16th. The gas mileage averaged 19.9 from Arizona to California, a variable was those Santa Ana winds....they were crazy. No visibility and dodging semis was crazy. The worst was the traffic, oh my! On our return yesterday, I was...
