i would by an xc90 over it

 

2011 Ford Explorer -- Autoblog

 

Those start at 37,700 MSRP.
I hope the Explorers are much less, 27k range

 

I am a fan of the engines that they are available with and i think the 4 banger Ecoboost would be awesome in a Ranger too. I like the way it looks even though the grille is a little TOO close to the Taurus, but I guess it is all supposed to be a family feel.

I am ok with the unibody construction. Fine by me.

But FWD? I have a hard time with that on an "suv" (this is marketed towards the suv crowds even though it is technically a cuv.)

 

looks way too much like an edge to me...or w.e. that egg thing ford made is...

 

The biggest V6 will tow max 5000lbs, not too bad.

I kinda like it. I'm sure it'll grow on me like a lot of newer cars do.

 

the way ford is pricing things anymore, i doubt it...however

the volvo is all the money more worth it. hell i would buy an 08 or new one before the new expo

 

i like it alot, just not too sure about the FWD thing

 

No thanks... maybe in a year or two if they came out with an Adrenalin/Sport package one!

 

idk... looks too much like everything else...

 

nice!!!

 

It looks pretty good.

Seeing as it looks more like a jacked up wagon than an SUV to me,

My money is on the Flex going away soon after this comes out.

 

base fwd starts at $28,190
base awd starts at $30,190

 

Looks like the new Ford Taurus.

 

looks like a chevy traverse so no. id just buy a 91-94

 

I think I'll tell my mom just to hang on to her 02 Expo

Not a fan

 

Ew, not a fan. Looks like a fat version of the Edge. No thanks

 

Its not tooooo bad....but i agree with most other people, looks way too much like the edge. and yeah. FWD is kinda stupid

 

Not a fan, but all SUV's look like this, so what are the alternatives?

I would buy one if I was in the market for one. but im not. As for the FWD its all about the MPG's. And most people in the southern states don't need AWD, I could get by with a truck in 2wd even in ND winters I kno a few people who do.

 

I think it looks good. I'd buy one if I was in the market.

 

a fwd exploder? no thanks. the one that is on the lots right now with awd looks great! those chrome 20s are pure sex!

this looks just like a taurus with a fivehead.

 

cool, Ford has redesigned the exploder more times in 8 years than they have the ranger in 17 years! And given it 2 sibling suvs in the Edge and the Escape! While their fullsize trucks get uglier and uglier every 2 years! While the Ranger rots away in the early 90s! Way to go FORD!
