2012 New Ford Explorer

[spynz]

thank you sa nag answer sa akin at least 2 na nag sabi na hindi maalog, yun kasi ang pinaka concern ko
salamat po

You will not regret owning the explorer. Value for the money. I would say...

[macsd]

hi , am new here, ask ko lang to those who bought the car already, do you recommend this car? sabi sa akin maalog daw totoo ba? thank you i am eyeing for this car pero takot coz sabi sa akin mababa ang resale value, mahal sa gasolina, at maalog daw ang ride? please answer thanks

Who ever told you na maalog surely has not taken this explorer for a ride. He/she is talking out of thin air.
I don't think your in a buy & sell business, so why worry about resale value when you don;t even have it yet.
Just buy & enjoy it. For all we know , you don't wanna let go of it.
This car does not dictate the price of gas but if your referring to it's consumption it's the best among the SUV of
it's size. If i will compare it with my 2007 4x4 escape, my explo would do 2.5 kms less for every liter but i can carry 3 more adult on that comparison.

yun daw sabi ng mga nakabili na (friends ng dad ko) kaya natakot kami bumili tuloy at least hindi pala totoo, one more thing yung side mirror pala ng explorer , kasi driver namin ang mag dridrive medyo nasa 60's na ang edad mahihirapan kaya siya? tnks sa lahat ng sumagot

kelangan niyo na palitan ang driver niyo, masyado na matanda yan. alam kaya niya gamitin ang features ng explorer? at ano ang mga kotse na ginagamit niya previously? paki tanong sa friends ng dad mo kung ano ano kotse na meron sila bukod sa explorer para malaman natin kung accurate sila.

ang kotse kasi dad ko toyota prado, land cruiser mas high end, yung sa akin patrol and papalitan yung benz ko to ford explorer sana, (yung drive namin supper tagal na sa amin kawawa naman pag papalitan his like my lolo na) pero malakas pa naman siya ...


Takot nga ako kasi yung side mirror ng explorer pwede kaya palitan? Tnks

Guys how much yung Ecoboost?

How's the FC?

[foresterx]

Guys how much yung Ecoboost?

How's the FC?

the ecoboost is only 150k cheaper than the limited but features are stripped down compared to the limited. in my opinion it's not worth it with only that much price difference.

fc is around 4-5km/ltr city driving

Light, moderate or heavy traffic?

[spynz]

Light, moderate or heavy traffic?

I think 4km/ltr-heavy traffic... Pasig area.

*snoid_zero. Common problem yang dashboard-door trim mis alignment, mine have that on both sides, passenger side worse than driver side,, i did not notice it before but a passenger pointed it to me... Not a big issue but it is frustrating that this issue is still rampant on late-build explorers. As far as i know, no official remedy (TSB) is being offered by Ford even in the US.

*kendy88. cons will really depend on what are you comparing the explorer to. If you compare it to a Jeep Grand Cherokee V6 for example, you get better features, handling and FC at a much lower price but you get less off-road capability, if you compare it to Mazda CX9, you get better looks, same or better FC, more features but less sporty driving. If you compare it to a sedan thats another thing.

As far as the comment that the explorer as 'maalog', that would be the farthest thing you Attribute the explorer to... The explorer is very composed in both rough road and high speed runs. I think it has a great balance between luxury and handling. That' s why some call the new explorer 'the thinking man's range rover evoque'

How much is the 2013 Explorer? What colors are available?

[numbah5]

we'll be getting our 2013 explorer by tomorrow or monnday, we are quite surprise by the fast availability of the unit since we only inquired last sunday, BTW 2013 model now comes with park assist, BLIS, 2nd row inflatable seatbelts, rain sensing wiper, auto hi beam headlight, hid, lane assist, etc....only difference i noticed at the exterior are the 4wd and flexfuel emblem and the additional sensor at the front bumper

Wow sir congrats! Saang dealer kayo kumuha? Did you avail of their in-house financing of 20% downpayment 3 years to pay? Since that's the fastest way of getting a unit eh.

How much is the 2013 Explorer? What colors are available?

Sir boybi it's 2.595M pesos and the colors are still the same except for the Brownish bronze color which will be replaced by the Kodiak Brown color

its 2.59m, still the same 4 colors, white, black, copper, gray

sa ford libis po, weird nga kasi ayaw pumayag ng cash, di daw kme magiging priority so napilitan ang dad ko na mag finance, 50% down, 2 years to pay ...

[Walter]

2.59M? Isn't it only 2.3M++?

[trup]

2.59M? Isn't it only 2.3M++?

ecoboost fwd is 2.250m
the limited w/c was previously 2.450m was replaced by the
2013 limited w/ 3.5l v6 is 2.595 w/ additional features

Same lang pala tayo ng payment method sir, pero sa December pa namin kukunin yung unit namin dahil yun ang gusto ng dad ko. Sa Ford Global City kami kukuha. Nag-apply na kami ng bank P.O. kaya ok na ang transaction. We opted to pay half of the 10% D.I. as outright cash payment, then the other half kasama sa interest rate ng bank.

2.59M? Isn't it only 2.3M++?

It's 2.595M now. 2013 model na ang mga parating. More features than the 2012 Explorer. Bi-Xenon HID Headlamps, Active Park Assist, Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keep Assist System, Inflatable Rear Seatbelts, Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning System with Brake Support, MyFord Touch Version 2.0, Power Tilt and Telescopic Steering Wheel, Rain Sensing Windshield Wipers, and GPS with Voice Navigation. Lahat ng mga yan wala sa 2012 models na 2.374M pesos na naging 2.450M pesos recently.

Guys bakit hindi na lang glass plate cover ang bilhin niyo? In my experience, it is more durable and stronger than the Deflector plate covers. And cheaper pa.

I've never used glass. Ayos pa naman yung Deflector plate cover ng ibang kotse namin and doesn't turn yellowish kaya happy na ako.

*prostee: kamusta yung sa harap, nakabit mo na ba over the black panel? D naman ako nagkaproblema s pagkabit.

I noticed in our Explo that the wiper has 7 speed levels whereas Jap n Korean vehicles only have 3-4 speed levels. Ganyan ba talaga pag American?

Di ko pa kinabit deflector kc wala pa ako plaka hehe, pero nong try ko ifit yong deflector backing di sya kasya, tumatama ng konti, maybe 2mm, sa edge ng plate frame kaya hindi mailapat... Try ko ulit next time.

Weird nga ng wiper controls ng explorer sa umpisa kc dadaan ka sa several levels in intermittent bago magcontinuous, pero sanayan lang tsaka tingin ko mas simple ito kaysa separate pa yong controls ng level of intermittent wiping..

Hindi talaga swak yung deflector plate holder if you put it over the black plastic plate holder of the Explorer.

OT: HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL THE EXPLORER DADS

Hindi ko magamit yung Explorer today to celebrate Father's Day kasi pabugso bugso yung ulan, kakalinis lang
