It isn’t uncommon for Ford to have different grills specific to a given model.

How come Ford is changing the front grill design already?
I'm more concerned with the fact that look made it out of the design studio... that looks like shit.

Holy crap! That front grill would have been perfect on the 2006 Escape, wonder why they didn't do that then? Definitely a solid step backward on the 2022 Explorer.

Still not as ugly as the current "transformer" looking GM Tahoes ! This is stretched vertically to visually prepare you for riding on a battery pack.

Yes, sadly there will always be something worse. But, as my Mom used to say when I came home from school with mediocre grades... "don't compare yourself to the worst student in your class, compare yourself to the best". So that said...

It also has a Torsen-style limited slip differential in the back. It's most likely that this could be swapped into an ST. Unsure whether the axle ratio is the same as the ST or whether the ring and pinion are the same.

that's what im most interested in as well. Having just come from one in my GC Trailhawk and Z71 Raydo, they make a world of difference.
