    Headlight assembly question

    1st is just lows, 2nd is lows with fogs, 3rd is highs, and 4th is the difference between the led and the halogens. The halogens we're silvana ultras which were 4 months old

    Headlight assembly question

    M Add additional lights?. I could be wrong but I had read somewhere that you could put HID bulbs in halogen projector headlight assemblies but I don't know if anyone tried it yet on an explorer

    Headlight assembly question

    So I'm not sure if this has been asked here I have been searching and didn't find anything about. My 2015 XLT, does it have projector headlight assemblies or reflector? It has halogen bulbs which I replaced because I was not satisfied with the light output and even with new bulbs (Sylvania...

    I just need hidden storage space for one more thing

    I don't know about you but I never use the 3rd row seats so I put my jumper cables, portable air pump, tow rope, and a few other things behind the second row seat under the floor of the cargo area. The area that would be the floor for 3rd row passengers

    Winter/Snow tires

    So I finally got to try the Toyo Celsius Cuv tires in slush and snow between 2 and 6 inches so far and I have to say they are surprisingly good! Driving in normal mode on my TMS the truck doesn't slip at all unless I want it to, traction when driving normal (winter normal) is great. Ice traction...

    Towing a U-Haul 12 foot trailer through Kentucky.

    I tow a horse trailer with 2 horses and all necessary gear in it with my 4 wd 2015 xlt with the 3.5 na and tow package. Fully loaded it tops out at 4200 pounds (yes I went to a truck stop and weighed it) and the explorer tows it beautifully but I personally will not go above 4500 pounds.

    Winter/Snow tires

    I sincerely appreciate all the information and tips from you guys. I decided to give the Toyo Celsius tires a try for this winter they're a hybrid winter/all season tire and have pretty good reviews. The part that was appealing to me was that they're a year round tire so it saves me from...

    Explorer Gas Mileage - including Ecoboost

    So I know these aren't exactly the most fuel efficient vehicles around but I'm curious what others are getting so I know how my truck is doing. The attached picture is 50/50 city/highway

    Winter/Snow tires

    Wow, thank you all for the responses! I too never needed winter tires on my previous 4wds but I'm now driving way more due to work and my horses than I ever have in previous years and in an area that sees little if any plowing come snow. The large increase in the amount of driving I have to do...

    Winter/Snow tires

    I had the Cooper discoverer AT3 4s' on my Yukon and to be honest I saw no improvement in the winter with those compared to the regular AT3's that I had on the Yukon originally

    Winter/Snow tires

    Thank you for your insight it's greatly appreciated. I'm not planning to run winter tires all year the tires currently on the truck are only 8 months old they're just not going to be any good for winter they're Hankook Dynapro HP2's (came on the explorer when I bought it) so I was going to run...

    Winter/Snow tires

    I live in Western New York where the temperature quite often goes below freezing and may stay there for a period of time, as for snow well depending on the storm we may get a few inches or a few feet depending on the severity of the storm. The farm where I keep my horses is surrounded by old...

    Winter/Snow tires

    I'm aware of the tire compound and the fact that AT's lose their grip in cold weather which is why I was asking about snow/winter tires for the Explorer. As for wheels as well, well that depends on the cost of wheels. I don't mind switching winter tires to my stock rims if needed. I'm not being...

    Winter/Snow tires

    So I've never used snow (winter) tires because every truck I've had in the past was true 4wd and I ran AT's on them. This is my first AWD/4WD and of course AT's aren't really going to work for it so I would like suggestions on which snow/winter tires you all recommend for me to take full...
