Yeah. They seem to hold up fairly well in service, but they do take a beating. It's a great driving vehicle. I just added the factory hidden tow hitch and replaced the rear bumper harness to get all of the towing connectors on Monday. That was the missing capability for me, but Ford has a kit to solve that problem.

I like the look of the 16's better, but finding an Ecoboost version of any police utility is extremely difficult - they are the GT350's of the Explorer line. haha.
That's the only good looking Explorer I've seen, got more pictures of it?

I'm currently shopping for a new daily, haven't had one since I bought my R last August. Looking at whole wide range of rigs, BMW X1/X3, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Explorer/Edge, Audi Q5, etc. Trying to find a decent mid-sized SUV that has decent reliability, good cargo/interior space and a half decent engine, that doesn't cost a fortune as I'm looking at models 2-4 years old, but not coming across too many local to me so far :(

I have a lemon lot special of a BMW 325i for a winter beater. This car has convinced me that owning a BMW outside of warranty is nothing but a headache. I thought parts would be cheaper in Germany; I was wrong.

I alternate daily driver & weekend warrior duties between these two cars.
But the 911 sees more DD duties currently.
