I'm not a Brown fan, but **** that is one nice Brown the Explorer is rocking.

 

Thanks for posting. Darn good looking vehicle, in my opinion!

 

Love the new Explorers, inside and out. Been inside a few and they are very nice.

Another hit for Ford.

 

I don't much care for the brown, but otherwise it looks pretty appealing. When it comes time to replace our Forester XT a new Explorer will be near the top of the list for vehicles I'll be looking at.

 

I'm with you guys; I'm not too big on the brown paint, but I do agree that the new Explorer looks pretty badass. Its interior is even more amazing!

Here's Motor Trend's take:

I drove a limited at a dealer event the other night. Its a beautiful vehicle. Very quiet inside. I drove it at night, the dash is just unreal, really nice. I saw today that a limited can be had for around $38,000 sticker which is nice because I fully expected them to come in around $42,000. I'd think that you could probably get one out the door for maybe $35,000 on a great day or with X plan. I just don't need a 7 passenger vehicle. I'll be interested in what the updated Escape looks like. Rumor has it it'll be a baby version of this, so that'd be cool.

 

I love the brown and think it would look awesome on the 2010+ Mustang body!

 

Reminds me of the 70's. I loved the 70's. Well except for the lack of horsepower and the whole Jimmy Carter thing. WTF was that about?

 

It's funny no one ever mentions that the Explorer Limited rocks the same exact wheels as the Taurus SHO...

 

Its nice, but I still prefer the one that was a SUV and had a V8.

 

Have to say we went to the local 2011 Ford Explorer reveal this fall and it is a pretty hot looking and very new roomy SUV! Thanks to FoMoCo again for yet another "Home Run"! CalStang
