Ok, Ford has made the Explorer in a "Sport" edition where they've upped the power, lowered the vehicle, and supposedly made a lumbering crossover SUV into a sports car. That's fine for folks who like that sort of thing, but I do not.
The Explorer started life as a capable off-road vehicle. The first 4 Explorers all did well off road, had good ground clearance and an actual low range transfer case. Why doesn't Ford come out with an Off-road version of the Explorer to compete with the Jeeps?
Give us about 1.5" more ground clearance, good off road, all terrain tires, and change that ridiculous "terrain management" system into an actual 4WD system with low range. Some folks need those capabilities and they have completely ignored us.
