When the 150 was in the shop a month ago, we ended up with a 2018 Explorer that was exactly what I specd out for my wife...even down to the color combination. I told the dealer to giver her the loaner before realizing what we were getting. I just about had to pry her fingers off the steering wheel when we returned it. It was an XLT nicely appointed with a sticker of around $42K

I was and the service writer did not help me. It was back in right after the 4th to have the rear window replaced that was bad that was installed when we had the Explorer. I told the service writer to give me either an Explorer or a 150. Dropped mine off and they gave me a '18 F150 XLT crew cab in Ruby Red with 60 miles. It had the 2.7 Ecoboost in it. I was very surprised at how hard that motor pulled compared to my 5.4. The turbo made all the difference.
