Driving experience is great.

June 24, 2025

By Timbo from Atlanta, GA

Owns this car

Driving experience is great. Either engine is plenty of power but even the base 2.3l is very fast. Rear wheel drive bias is noticeable in driving dynamics making it fun to drive. The new Google based infotainment system one of the best in the industry in my opinion.. Almost don't even need a phone with how smart it is. Blue cruise is very convenient for long monotonous highway drives if equipped

I purchased the 2025 explorer platinum this is my 3rd

April 18, 2025

By Jeff from Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin

Owns this car

I purchased the 2025 explorer platinum this is my 3rd explorer platinum I ordered the car because I liked the ones that I have had and had very good luck with them with very little trouble and dealer was always very responsive and would get things fixed right away. Not the case this time. Ford did a refresh for 2025. while I like the interior refresh and exterior they deleated a lot of the equipment that made it a platinum. the stereo has been downgraded it says it’s the b&o 14 speaker but it does not compare to the b&o stereo in my 2021 that I traded. Ford has always been known for the keypad on Door I use it all the time they deleated that but I could still order it I did but it cost me 400 for the cost and installation. The new google based infotainment system is great when it works. If amine is familiar with the nightmare of windows ME this is a lot like it hangs up constantly have to do a hard reset. The fit and finish on the interior trim pieces are unfinished in many areas I definitely got a Friday built car. This is just the beginning. This is my 31 ford and my 12 new one. It will be my last Ford. The dealer in eagle river Wisconsin has completely ghosted me no response to emails phone call ect. So I am currently looking for a new dealer to use that will service new car. I would run the other way on the 2025 explorer platinum.
