I bit the bullet today and ordered a 2013 Explorer Limited 2WD 2.0 Ecoboost. I had hoped to find a 2012 optioned the way I wanted it, but it wasn't to be. I guess I'll have to wait in the conga line for the car to come in.

 

I wouldn't pay the money for something like that. The OLD explorers would be sweet, But I'm not too sure about the new ones.

Let me know how it preforms.

 

Congrats on the new 2013. Bought a 2012 for the wife and we absolutely love it. I have the 6 though not the 4.

 

Congratulations! I placed my 2013 order in January, looks like should be in production soon. Hopefully neither of us will have to wait too long.

 

I was going to buy the wife a Mercedes but she wanted an Explorer instead. So instead of 2 Ford's and an over-priced German contraption in my driveway, I'll have 3 Ford's. She's a keeper. I'm sure I'll only be allowed to drive 2 of them though.
