Explorer NBX: The No Boundaries eXperience

The NBX package adds a healthy dose of attitude and aptitude to the 2003 Explorer.

The heart of the NBX package is a Yakima multi-use LoadWarrior cargo basket. Highly versatile, the rack measures 44 inches by 39 inches and is 6.5 inches deep. Made of heavy-duty steel, the LoadWarrior is designed to handle extra cargo, and is especially adept at keeping messy gear out of the plush Explorer interior. The Explorer and Ford Outfitters logos appear on the left side of the front of the rack. Aerodynamic farings, locking brackets and LoadWarrior Extensions are sold separately through Yakima.

The exterior of NBX features unique two-tone black front and rear bumpers that coordinate with the black side moldings, wheel lips, and step bars. The rolling stock, larger than that of the base Explorer, is a set of BFGoodrich Rugged Trail T/A P245/65R17 outline-white-letter tires mounted on 17-inch, 5-spoke machined aluminum wheels. The tires are designed for good performance on- and off-road, low noise and year-round traction.

The Explorer NBX interior offers cloth low-back sport bucket seats with 6-way power driver and manual lumbar support, upholstered in Midnight Gray fabric. The Explorer NBX logo also is embossed into the raised rubber floormats. An additional unique feature is a soft-lined cargo area with storage bag.

Explorer NBX is available in Zinc Yellow, Red Fire, Silver Birch, and Mineral Gray for 2003.


On another note I have 16" wheels, leather interior, and no NBX logo. Pretty much the only thing that matches this description is the silver birch color...
 






PM you're vin number to a ford customer service rep on here, they should be able to tell you
 






I'd like to think that this in a NBX but I just don't believe it. The only thing that matches is the color and the radio bezel and 4x4. Everything else is different. Leather not cloth (not dissapointed here), no hooks (I installed them from a Expedition/F150 in the junkyard), no skidplates, no floormats, no roof rack, no NBX badge, 16" not 17" rims, 3.55 Open not 3.73 LS.

What do you guys think?
 






Geico also classifies my 2004 Explorer 4x4 XLT as a NBX although it's not. Go figure.

I just heard back from Ford and they looked up my truck by VIN. It is NOT an NBX.

jghake,

I sent you a follow-up PM with my research; please see your inbox for the details. :) I also suggest editing your post to remove the VIN because it can be considered private info.

Thanks for the recommendation, Kazer!
