So how do the two Explorers compare to each other in towing? Pretty big loads ya got there!
That Big Tex is squatting that Explorer pretty good. I’d look into a bag setup if I was towing that thing with any regularity.
you sure thats not a 8 ft wide trailer?Towed this big 6x20ish ~6000lbs cargo trailer last weekend as a test. The Explorer is too narrow to see behind the trailer at all, even with tow mirrors attached. Besides that, it did surprisingly well and squat wasn't too bad. I installed a RedArc Tow-Pro Elite trailer brake controller which performed great. I definitely need a weight distribution hitch and some helper spring blocks or air springs if I plan to tow it regularly. Suggestions welcome on that.
