    Towing Capabilities

    Lots of information here regarding the new Explorer. But, I haven't read any information regarding what the towing limits will be? I bought my '09 Limited, V-8 because I need to tow my classic car around to shows. I need 7,000 towing limits and don't want an F-150. I had a suspicion that...

    Front License Plate Bracket

    Any Feedback on '09 Explorers???

    Power Rear Door Lock

    Just wanted to update my original post. I had my Explorer in for the oil change and asked them to look at the rear door lock actuator that they had replaced in January. Well, I got it back today and they said the Ford Dealer that supplied the original actuator replaced it for free. My...

    Power Rear Door Lock

    I appreciate the lead. I'm due for my next oil change in the next month or so and will mention the wires leading back to the locking mechanism. We'll see if that's the ticket. Thanks!
