First, the XLT definitely has a sportier appearance. , and no steelies on the XLT. The interior gets upgraded fabric over the XL and the bed gets more tie downs then the XL (10 vs 6) the XLT also gets a bed cubby space. Really though the XLT can be spec'd up way more then the XL. The FX4 and Tremor packages are available to the XLT and NOT the XL. The XL kind of is a bare bones utility truck. The differences are minor I think until you start adding things, if you want to. I hope that helps. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

It does NOT come with remote start standard. You will have to add the Active Comfort Package ($3,360) which includes it. Appreciate the question. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

Thank you, and thank you for the recommendation. I will definitely see what info is available for future episodes. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Thank you and thank you for the recommendation, this is currently in the works. I hope to have it in a future episode soon! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

The Platinum and Hybrid MAX Platinum are the only trims that get the panoramic roof standard. Thank you for the question!

Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Thank you so much! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Looking into this I believe you should get 2. Definitely check with your dealer where you bought the vehicle though to make sure. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Unfortunately it looks like the backup sensors are just on the Lariat. The XLT does get a backup camera if that matters. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!.

All Explorer trims, come with a "mini" spare tire. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you stopping in and commenting!

Yes, the Platinum front seats also get the Active Motion massage feature. Apologies, that should have been included. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

I'm keeping my eye on the Tahoe also. I agree with everything you said. Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

Unfortunately, those are not available for the TX 550. If you are after that combination you would need to look at the TX 350 Premium or TX 350 Luxury. Sorry I don't have have better news. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

The ST does get some "sporty" upgrades to set it apart. The brakes do get upgraded pads, and the calipers are painted red to show its an ST. The transmission isn't upgraded, but does add paddle shifters with selectshift standard. It also gets a "sports" tuned suspension which is setup different from the other models. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

@@MtnRoads Thank you for replying. Loved the video!

@@Gostliy Sure thing! Thank you so much!

OK, that's pretty ridiculous they are trying to do that. I totally agree with those older models need to come down in price. I've also heard several Ford '25 model year vehicles production has been delayed. This includes the '25 Explorer. Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

Yes , they do. You may see something similar in the 2025 Expedition. Also , some Lincoln models have similar screens as well. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

In doing some checking I'm getting some conflicting info. I'm going to try and reach out to Ford to see if they can clear things up. I'll update here as soon as I can. Thank you for the question!

@@MtnRoads Thanks. I built it online and could not find info on it. Thing was $66k as built and i mean it's got to have heads up display... right? All the other brands at this price do... Jeep, Chevy, GMC, etc.

@@BusinessintheBend I had chat with a Ford Rep online and I'm shocked to be honest they said they didn't see it being available but I may be able to order it. I've gone through the packages and I also didn't see it. So I'm going to have to say they aren't available. Again shocked! As these things get on dealer lots Id say maybe call them about the Platinum or ST to see if they have them? Wish I got a better answer for you. Again thanks for dropping in and commenting!

Each Explorer trim comes with a "mini" spare tire, not a full size one. Thank you for the question, appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

@@MtnRoadsThank you for the quick response!

@@LarryHunt-tt3hk You're welcome!

You're welcome!! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

The Platinum does get the twin panel moonroof standard. It is an available option on all the other trims. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Don't get a sunroof - less leaking problems down the line

Thank you for the recommendation. I can certainly add those in future episodes. Here's a quick list for the 2025 Explorer - Wheelbase = 3025mm, Length = 5047mm, Width = 2268mm (with Mirrors), Height = 1768mm (Active, ST), 1773mm (ST), 1783mm (Platinum). Is that what you were looking for? If you need a specific spec let me know. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

@MtnRoads all good. Just a polite way of asking American TH-camrs to share metric specs too for the rest of us. It's usually power and torque I look at.

@@peterorth2149 Power and torque probably should have been my first guess. So, here you go 2.3L EcoBoost I4 (300HP / 304PS / 224kW & 310lb-ft / 420Nm) 3.0L EcoBoost V6 (400HP / 405PS / 298kW & 415lb-ft / 563Nm) . Thanks again and thanks for the follow up.

I hope my response gets to you. Thank you so much for your feedback and kind words! I'm glad you understood everything, thank you so much!! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

The Active Comfort package costs an additional $3,360. However, adding it to a 4WD version it looks like 20 inch wheels are also added which increases the cost to $4,755. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

no more timberline , does ford want to go after the 4runner trd off-road /trd pro , grand Cherokee trail hawk buyers ? maybe they might bring the ranger based Everest a true 4x4 with a low range ??

@@youtubecarspottersguide1 Yes, no timberline for 2025. It may be back in a later model year, but don't quote me on that, just rumors. I wish they would bring the Everest to the US! I think that would do very well here. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

My heart says yes.. but my brain doesn't think so. I hope we find out soon! Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Id have no issue with an inline 6. Appreciate your thoughts! Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

Since you are going for the FX package, you will at least have to get an XLT. It has 6 way adjustable driver seat and I believe manual up/down adjust is part of that. I think only the driver side gets it though. Definitely try and get in one and try it on to make sure it works like you want. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

I couldn't find anything definite. If it does I think it will be reserved for the higher trim levels. Hopefully we'll find out soon. Appreciate the question. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!

@@MtnRoads Same here! The Acadia Denali has it so I’m guessing the Yukon Denali will follow suit but it would be nice if the Tahoe had ambient lighting for the higher trims, especially at that price point! And thank you for replying!

@@carreviewskw The new Equinox EV also has it across all the trims, so I think that shows its definitely a possible option. I honestly would be surprised if it didn't get it. Appreciate the follow up!

I was wondering when I'd get this comment 😉. I think a lot of people will. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Thank you! Some are definitely more easy then others. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

I think there is chance that it could. Yes, the GT 63 S E Performance was just released, but part of that is the E Performance badge. That designates that there is electrification being used for that model. This version (hopefully) will not have any electric assistance, so the E Performance will be dropped. leaving the AMG GT S to fill the gap between the GT 63 and the 63 S E Performance. Or.. I could be completely wrong. I'm looking forward to finding out though! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!

@@MtnRoads The SE Performance already has the GT/S badge on the rear tailgate with coloured edges added and that seems like the norm now for all the P3 hybrid equipped models...not referring to the SE performance inscription on the side fenders. As you say could be wrong. It'll be interesting what/how many variants will eventually be released and what the nomenclature will follow as it's already not the same as the previous gen GT. 🙂

@@AV_Aero You were correct. It is not the GT S. It is the AMG GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+, revealed today.

Thanks MtnRoads The name of this new variant is cool and great that it lives on from the previous GT model.
