Howdy y'all. Kind of new to the forum. I've been lurking in the shadows for a while doing my research before I commit to a new Explorer. This would be my second one, I had a 22 coming from a 15 Hellcat and felt sick about the trade since then.(Used to the supercharger and the sound when I press the gas). Traded the Explorer for a 20 Trackhawk and was extremely happy. Well the Hawk got totaled by a distracted teen, she was texting and speeding, rear-ended me at approx 90mph. Got a check then bought a 22 Charger Hellcat. Well, got tired of hoodcats and scatty patties trying to race me and the constant paranoia of the Charger getting stolen I then made the decision and a non regrettable one to purchase this truck. Pretty satisfied with it!
However, I do have two main complaints. one, the infrared sensor that tracks your eyes while BlueCruise or adaptive cruise control is on is racists. The truck will scream at me to keep my eyes on the road until I open my eyes wider and its even worse when I wear sunglasses.......Totally joking about that y'all...The truck is not racists but, I do struggle with the sensor while wearing sunglasses. Do any of y'all with a 25 experience the same issue? My second issue is at around 1300 miles my rear driver side night time driving light went out. The indicators, hazards, reverse and brake lights all work but not the running light. Bummer right? Well Big Blue said the lamp is on back order till sometime November. Dang, and I was enjoying the truck. So I hadn't been doing any night driving for almost a month and will keep the truck dead lined until the parts come in.
Anyhoo, Thermal 3" on order, UPR can already installed, Black ovals at the ready, CVF Intercooler in the very near future, probably not gonna lower it but, will do a strut bar and most def roof rail delete. Too bad no tune available yet and for quite sometime. Not going to track the truck so no Big Brakes. I would like for this to be my last vehicle purchase but I said that about the last 10+ cars I've owned so its unlikely. Shoot, depending what the 27s look like and how big of an improvement they'll have I might trade in..who knows..
So are there no downpipes available yet for the 25? Something about different turbos I dunno.
Cheers.
