See this is exactly what I'm talking about
not once did I ever say I wish it upon anyone
I simply said I'm not afraid. I'm not going to live in fear forever.
Oh I was not insinuating that at all and I’m sorry if you took it that way. Believe it or not, my fear is that you have no fear or healthy respect for this unknown thing that could upend your life. I just don’t want you to go through what my family went through. That’s all I was trying to say by sharing my very personal story.

Zero fear whatsoever now that we're months into this and there's more and more evidence showing that this is far less dangerous than we were originally lead to believe.My very healthy sister who is 59 years old, exercises, eats great, good spirit got the virus from her husband. 2 weeks later she was on a vent and we were saying goodbye with the nurse holding the phone. Luckily, the Remdisvir & steroid regiment had a positive effect and she slowly turned around. She has permanent damage to her lungs and possibly to her kidneys. Her husband had flu symptoms and her 90 year old mother-in-law was asymptomatic. So, not so easy to give advice when you have one household that had 3 different responses. Please, you don't want to be on the other end of the phone with someone you love while they fight for their lives all alone. I would't wish what my family went through on my worst enemy.

How can you honestly listen to anything Fauci says when he flip-flops worse than John Kerry?
seriously, it seems like at minimum once a week he changes his stance on something
I think in a pandemic that we have never seen the likes of before, the advice changes as the data changes. We can't possibly expect health experts to know exactly what to do out of the gate. If something is "novel" it is just as the word suggests, new, but also original, fresh and unique. And just as the name "science" implies, it's a systematic study of the physical and natural work through observation and experiment. I would expect advice to change and change frequently as more is documented and analyzed. Health experts and scientists are not politicians. They experiment, learn and share results. That's just my two cents.

Hello Cyberdman,
When you get a chance may I get an update on 2020 Explorer 4-door - VIN 1FM5K7FW5LGD03495.
Thank you!!
-
Sounds nice! Welcome
-
I really appreciate the information. I wish there was an upgrade option but at least now I know.
I really want the hybrid but it doesn’t come in the platinum trim.
thanks again!
-
I was really hoping that the Limited Trim had the 12 inch instrument cluster. Does anyone know which ones have it? When I was building the car on the website I did not see an option for upgrading it.
-
I’m sorry for the spelling! Thank you for the update. Excited to have a vin# and schedule date. Thank you for taking the time to do this!

You're welcome. It was just ok. Nice to be off for a few days, but I miss those days of having real vacations. Right now, I don't know if that'll ever come back.
I hear you. I have more vacation time right now at work than I have ever had this time of year. Let’s hope it eventually does. I’d love to just have a nice dinner out followed by a movie. I know I will certainly appreciate it much more than I have in the past. Amazing the things you take for granted. Have a good weekend!

Hi Colleen. Not sure how long after you get your new Explorer you plan on waiting before you tow your camper. However, if you check the Owners Manual for the break-in requirements, you will see that Ford states not to tow during the first 1,000 miles.
Good luck.
Thank you for that information. I guess I will be altering my plans.

I added an Amp research step to the back of mine. They also have one for the side. It works well but can be a pain to install.
Thank you for the feedback.

Hi there. My friend just bought a F150 with 8 foot box and I’d like to buy a step for the back as a gift . Can anyone recommend/point me to a site where I can purchase? Thanks for any guidance.

Hello,
This is my first post here and I am new to the forums. If you feel I don't have enough quality posting, than please just ignore this request. I don't want to break any of the rules.
I would like to track my build if possible.

It sounds like you are going on vacation next week so enjoy and I'll check with you when you get back if you don't have time before you leave. Thanks again.

On explorer a latch that opens just the window in the back like older models. Really helpful when pulling camper or trailer and can't open the hatch

Well, we've had our 2020 Explorer for almost four months now. It's time for some feedback, Ford. Firstly, the vehicle was delivered with a torn second row seat cover. That took two weeks to remedy. The tailgate opens on its own intermittently (not while in motion) and at times won't open from the dash or the fob (happened to my wife with the dog in the cargo area and couldn't get him out. She's ready to get rid of the vehicle). Dealer can't replicate/find the problem. The tailgate/headliner seal was mis-aligned and the headliner started dropping - remediated so far. Now, the driver's side rear brake/running LED light assembly is completely dead. Dealer doesn't have the part and has to see it before they can order a replacement. That mean two more trips to the dealer with a four month old new vehicle and probably no brake light for another two weeks. This speaks of poor quality for a $60K Platinum edition. C'mon Ford you can do better. This is frustrating to say the least.
Good Lord, I was planning on towing my camper with my new explorer 1000 miles when it comes in. Do you see any issues with that? Have you seen any mechanical issues?

I found this night review of the 2020 Explorer informative. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ5HXfOvSGc
Gives you an idea about the adaptive lights as well.

No tracking needed this week as it showed up yesterday at the dealership. Just wanted to take a second to say Thank You for keeping me informed during the journey. It is very kind of you.
