According to FGP's Facebook page, they are finalizing plans to bring the new Explorer here...

it's so big in the pictures that it seems to be in size of the expedition. ang ganda nito nung nakita ko before as a concept vehicle from a forgotten site pero now the actual looks like the concept itself. astig! i approve the design! this is something i can really call an suv in terms of looks. machong macho yet not that sporty enough to be called a cuv. hope to see this on our roads earlier than expected
the rear light niya which is also seen in action dun sa isang vid dito about sa blis, it reminded me about the mini (i think cooper yun) that i saw before on our roads here late night a year ago. square thin light

Di na ba Patrol ang favorite nila? Kayang-kaya nama nila kahit mas naging mahal na
I think the new Explorer is not as big as the Expedition but is slightly bigger than the current one. I saw some videos in youtube and the second ro's legroom look a bit small for a 6-foot person (kasi umupo yung host who's about 6'1").
mas maganda sana kung lagyan nila ng Diesel engine version ang Explorer.
But then again the target market of this SUV really doesn't care much for gas cost. haayy..
The Explorer is an American SUV, they don't really use diesel over there...
No hindi dahil mas mahal, yes mas mahal sya per gallon pero alam ng Amerikano na mas matipid ang mileage ng diesel kaya mas matipid parin diesel overall...
The problem with diesel is the SUPER STRICT environmental laws of the US. Modern diesels are even having a hard time passing their environmental requirements... Forget the old school diesels, those won't even pass the environmental tests which just the flick of the ignition!
So yeah very few diesels pass the test kaya very few diesel cars in the US. Mostly Volkswagens...
Dapat kasi Ecoboost engine na itong Ford Explorer eh... Pero still a naturally aspirated V6... Pero they say its more fuel efficient than the old one...
Kung 10km/L din sa highway driving, pareho lang yan. Hindi rin tumipid.
Dapat yung Ecoboost engine nalang.
