- 2015 Explorer XLT 4wd
As a recent proud owner of a new 2015 Explorer 4wd, and a subscriber to Motor Trend, I was just wondering why every time I read an article or review of the 2011 - 2016 Explorer in Motor Trend, they rarely have anything good to say about the vehicle. Recently they had a brief article about the 2016 mentioning good looks but then blasted other things about it. Then in the same magazine they totally praised the new 2016 Honda Pilot which I think looks like a minivan. Oh well, I guess I'm just biased as I think Motor Trend is in an opposite way. Any thoughts?
Oh and yes the new Pilot has the same nine speed transmission that I had in my 2014 Jeep Cherokee which is one of the main reasons I traded in that vehicle for my new Explorer. The nine speed was always hunting for gears and drove "nervously".
