You, too my friend and your ride is going to be beast with the lowering springs!!!

Thanks, Peter! I'm staying as an elite. I'd like to chime in from time to time and see what's new. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family and forums family!

Let me tell you first that I know that I haven't been active with this group for a while and that I've been busy as a moderator for a 5th GEN FB Group but a lot of people know that I LOVED my 2016 Platinum Explorer with especially with the modifications I did on it, but COVID has changed the...

Yes, Sir

I don't think they came with those.

With OEM, you're not going to really have any noticeable noise coming from the turbo's sadly.

Do you have the same set-up?

If wear is not important, get the Continental ExtremeContact DWS.

It looks like @kenemmons ride which inspired me to do mine. If I had to guess, Velgen Wheels VMB5 20''x10.5" with a 45mm off set. Mine are VMB6 with those specs. Tires are 295 45Z R20. I went with Pirelli Scorpio Verde Run Flats. @Tricon916 how close am I on the wheels?

I got the VMB 6. Love them. Plus, DO NOT PAINT. Wrap the bumpers and stuff. Much easier and lasts if done right. Your ride looks fantastic!

Thanks you! The continental DWS were good but the tires wore out so fast. I was only able to get 25K on them. I got a small rebate and I put the balance into a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires. So far they handle excellent especially in the rain but the true test will be in the snow this...

For those of you who care, here's my opinion I recently installed B6 Bilstein Shock Absorbers. I had it installed last Saturday and already put 968 miles on them immediately. My XPL is on H&R Special Springs, LP. and over-all, I felt them a little less than I did with OEM. However, my OEM had...

PHOTOS PLEASE!!!! :P

They're installed.

ZERO RUBBING. Fits Perfect. Velgen VMB6 20" x 10.5" 45mm off set

Having a little fun today with my girl. I love it when certain cars challenge me. She may not be super fast but she holds her own quite nicely. Have to thank @Livernois for the tune.

OEM Cross Bars, my friend. They do the job nicely. A bit pricey though but if you shop around you can get a deal. I did from my dealer. He gave me 20% off.

Just screwing around after 1895 miles into the tail end of this business trip. 500 more to go and then another 750 this weekend to MI!

What?! What is that?! I obviously didn’t think about that.

I’m going to do that next.

Had the Steeda sway bars installed the other day. Already have 700 miles on them. What a difference in handling!!!

PowerStops are holding up fantastic but with the new ST out, I'm asking Ford if the Brembo Brakes are now available for the 16 models!

had it in my '16 platinum. sounded a tad bit louder but not by much. recently installed ecopowerparts hot-pipes, tranverse CAI and Tial BOV. now it sounds louder! here's the hot-pipes and bov with my original CAI from @Livernois

This was my first road trip literally right after the install the day prior. I averaged 80mph on cruise control most of the trip but was heavy footed on stretches opening her up on the highway. I just wish that my dash cam didn't loop over the parts where I was "racing" her. This is the...

Some questions hopefully answered about my new EcoPowerParts hot-pipes and CAI getting too hot. Let me know your feedback!

Peter, here's a message from Mike at EPP: "Aluminum, as the air flows it's impossible to heat it up while accelerating hard"

Peter! Great to hear from you. Sorry I haven't been around but I promise to be more engaging this time around. As for the pipes, I think they are but I bought into it because of Mike from EcoPowerParts. Ecoboost (Dev Site) There's the product and little more about it. So far, the hot...

You have very good taste, sir!!! LOL

Sorry for the late response, but I've even added on EcoPowerParts CAI. My ride sounds fantastic especially with the BOV and with the new intake. As for throttle response, it may be a placebo affect but I feel it's a lot more responsive however @Livernois says it's going to take a little bit to...

Hello, Explorer Forums! It's been a while. I've been mainly on FB but have been traveling a TON!!! 90K on my '16 Platinum!!! Thank God they're all freeway miles and according to my mechanics, I'll get a few more miles out of her before any real major work needs to be done. Lot's of great...

Sorry guys! I've been traveling and actually now a moderator for another FB Forums Group but this is still one of my favorites. Here's what I did today. Shout outs to Nick Olson of Olson's EcoBoost and EcoPowerParts.com. A big shout out to Car-One Tire & Auto in Hoffman Estates, IL for the...

Wrapped, sir by Crown Customs & Coatings LLC in Elk Grove Village, IL.

Here's the link. I don't know if they still sell them but you can find the same for sure: 2pcs Add-On Steering Wheel Shifter Extension Shift DSG Paddles for Ford Explorer 190672340655 | eBay

Hello! It's been a while since I posted but I was up late tonight and couldn't sleep so I thought I'd edit a video that I made of my ride on my YouTube channel. YouTube is particular on what kind of music you can have on there due to copyright infringements. I hope you enjoy and throw a like...

Nice!!!

wrap 3 times. coat once. :P
