Default 2013 Ford Explorer Sport

Anyone excited about this? I was waiting on the 2013 F150 but this new explorer with the 3.5 Ecoboost really catching my eye. Anybody have any idea when it might be available?http://media.ford.com/mini_sites/10031/13ExplorerSport/

Yes! I'm trying to convince the wife to trade her expedition for one. I had a RR Sport Supercharged and it was a blast to drive - this new Explorer reminds me of the RRSS in many respects.

They are available now. Local dealership already has them on the lot.

That's the 2.0L 4 cyl EcoBoost that was available last year. The sport will be the 3.5 Ecoboost.

Not sure when it'll be available.

You can get a loaded truck for the price of a base Explorer, broadly speaking.

No thanks.

Yup you're right. I saw 3.5 and thought it was the ecoboost.

cool car. cant wait til we get one at work for me to drive. but when it comes down to fact, its essentially a Taurus SHO wagon.
the 2.0 4cyl eco is very underwhelming, hardly worth mentioning when considering a new explorer to purchase.
now what I am waiting for is the focus with the Ecoboost 4cyl. that's gonna be fun.
