if ngk plugs are more for import, why do the monster trucks run them in there 1500 + horsepower trucks? im not disagreeing with you, i always thought that to. but for them to use ngk plugs....
OK, let me present this another way. NGK is a Japanese company. Where do you think the bulk of their R&D budget is focused? I like to think Ford Explorers are an afterthought. Techieman his the nail on the head. Sponsors are sponsors.
Everywhere you go on the web whether it be Explorer sites, Mustang sites, F-150 sites or whatever. Most people recommend OEM for Fords. It's the general plug of choice on this site.
I've used NGK plugs and they were fine. I never found much in the way of bad press on them which is why I scored them. I got roped into the Iridium hype. I now won't use anything other than Motorcraft/Autolite in ANY Ford product I own in the future because I know better. I will never touch Bosch for any reason.
