2017 Explorer Sport picked up!

Interesting. Calls for another look.

That's definitely not true. It's blowing air conditioned air, because it is nice and cool. Now I'll pay attention to this as I'm about to commute home. I wonder how well the cooled seats work if you are blasting heat for example?

Since we're in the same city let's put something on it.......always good to back up your mouth especially on a forum.

What's the bet?

Whoever is right pays for the others first oil change?

Looking for some info. the whole 500watt sony system thing has bothered me since I brought my Sport home.
My build date was 28/06/16 which appears to be almost 2 months before Ford apparently switched to the 500w system in the 2017 sports.
However when I punch my VIN into Ford Etis is shows "Audiophille speaker/amp"

What does this actually mean?

Looks to be the same as mine. I wish there was some crystal clear indicator in the vehicle that says 500Watt Clearphase.

Mine is Canadian so it should have been a standard on the order sheet.
