Just drove one 2 hours, did amazing. I'm not a big Ford guy, as I'm happily married to Lexus. Those 3.5 V6 Fords they make are something special. I know a guy with a Ford Edge 3.5 V6, it has one cylinder completely out and that car still runs 2 years later as his daily. It ticks and shakes, but the AC works, the radio works, the lights all work, power steering is still good, and the transmission is stronger than Popeyes on spinach, no joke. Once he raced a newer Kia and won, no cap as kids say. I have a lot of respect for Ford. I should have known Ford was a good car as a kid. My mom drove a 1990s Crown Victoria, a beautiful car with a lot of space. I remember having 6 people in the back seat at one point, and nobody was complaining. Good old days.
Engine sounds nice! Anyone else notice the Honda Pilot at 2:42? Probably the only time anyone in Germany has seen either of these cars and they’re next to each other!
@@nilssjoberg2522 Agreed considering the regular V6 and the Twin Turbo get the same gas mileage. It may be overkill in warranting the higher price of the 365hp engine. It does suck though that they didn't offer it on the Limited model. And only the Platinum and Sport.

What stance do yall use? We use the default one but I feel like something is off. Sometimes it doesn't shift when it needs to or is it normal for this car to do that? Edit: by stance I mean driving mode

The same thing happens to you or what could it be. I will be infinitely grateful for your help. Greetings
Me pasa lo mismo con mi Explorer 2017 3.5 V6 es un olor extraño, pero aún no se que es, el vehículo jamás me ha recalentado ni nada parecido y todas sus conecciones eléctricas están perfectas.

Ford has the best American sounding v6 specially the 3.5l
I would have to agree! it sounds so good!
The 3.7 also sounds pretty good
The Dodge V6 sounds better imo
Good sounding motor, but I’m not liking the fake engine notes from the 2.7, 3.0 and 3.5 EcoBoost engines.

2:08 literally sounds like heaven!!
My mom has this car. It drives like a dream, fast too. Definitely safer than my focus lol
I own a 2018 explorer with this exact engine, it's a blast driving anywhere
Engine sounds nice! Anyone else notice the Honda Pilot at 2:42? Probably the only time anyone in Germany has seen either of these cars and they’re next to each other!
I like that car, my grandpa had 2 of them. (black and blue). Drive safely
Hope you can do one with the 3.5 Ecoboost as well!
You gotta put it in sport really makes a difference
I had one for a week as a loaner while my car was getting repaired. At higher speeds it’s still a big SUV, but it pulls like a train from 20-80mph
The na 3.5s sound good and thats coming from a 3.5 ecoboost owner
Sports mode is so much more responsive!
Я снял ограничитель скорости,разгонял 220км/ч
The 3.5 doesn't really pull as well without the Ecoboost. I drove a 2019 290 hp isn't really enough for it's weight. Now 365 is. Huge difference.
Definitely needs the EcoBoost option. The naturally aspirated 3.5 is taxed hauling all that weight
For the size of this vehicle i don't think the naturally aspirated V6 did to bad at all...!!!
@@tomtalker2000 I personally think the intake noise is quite nice!

I mostly blame the transmission
@@La-yt1wr yeah the shifts aren't exactly energetic
SOUNDS SO GOOD 💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥
This is the best model year better than the 2022
Yeah this was definitely imported from the states, it’s still has the American spec license plate bracket.
Thats not American spec lol. Its too small and square
I have my 3.5 n/a under 6 secs. It's a nice sleeper.
What's done to it? I really wanna get more out of my 3.5 n/a
3.5 n/a is about 9 seconds, neverb gonna be 6

This is my dream car
no speed with the v6 3.5L for the explorer
My fuel bar would have moved on that run.
is 1/4 a tank 50 miles to empty on that spec too?
Most definitely is, a full tank with this engine can range from 270-340

Very good video 😁😃👍🚗
Was this in sport mode ?
I am 11 years old and my moms explorer has 450 HP💀💀💀
Is this engine and this model explorer reliable?

Hello. Could you please tell me who the motor manufacturer is. I'm assuming it's not Ford. Thanks
Ford needs immediately a new interior design.
These nice cars do not deserve that interior...
Well, the title states with is a 2017 Explorer, not a current model. Since then, Ford has redesigned the entire vehicle outside and inside.
this is an older explorer, the newer one is very improved
@@summrsexclaimed The newer interior looks better, but the quality went down sadly. I'm hoping they improve the QC on the new Explorer.
I MUCH prefer the 2017-2018 look both inside and out. Over the new 2020 and above models. The older models look like a Landrover.
@@tomtalker2000 new outside old inside design that would be good personally
Mustang POV Please
I have Already mustang pov
❤️👍👍
I’m sorry he was going 120 on the highway😮
same sound as a Renault Vel Satis 3.5 V6
👍
omg why is so loud inside ?
USA's police car - that's all what to say about this car

Creo que son los gases del catalítico. A veces me pasa cuando voy manejando así mismo (igual no suelo ir a lo Senna siempre eso si).
The fact it’s not in sport is bothering me

My 2019, 3.5 non turbo, does 130+.... How does that make any sense....
this car is US model, lots US model cars has speed limiter, is yours US model aswell?
@@TESTDRIVEFREAK yes, mine is a US model, but it also has the Police Interceptor tune... That may make it different...
Thats make sense with police trim, they need more speed to catch the suspect driver 😅

Your wrong. 2016 models had sync 2 on the screens. That is sync 3.
You are correct. RyGuy 0508. The sync 3 in the 2017 to 2019 explorers
