New 2022 On Order

[2022ST]

Got an optioned out forged green 2022 on order from my local dealership. I'm just here checking out some of the mods people have done to the ST platform. Specifically I was curious about what after market wheels people have been going with and if the people have had good experiences with suspension upgrades or if the high performance package suspension is best left alone.

The 2022 Explorer orders are open? I thought they weren’t available yet. Any other changes besides a new color?

They have that color on the 2021 Explorer website now.

I wouldn't mind if they came out with "Broke My Banana Yellow"

Broke My Banana Yellow sounds like something Chrysler would have had in the 70’s Lol.

Screaming Yellow Zonker color!

Why would they still have the 21 model year's still available to order if the 22's had already hit the market? Seems weird.

They aren't officially open. But to make an order for a 21 now doesn't make since the 22 will be out by the time I get the order filled. I just told my guy all the options I want on the 21 and to call me if any of the options and packages change. He said that they'll be open to place orders any day and will put mine in right away. So technically they rent available yet but also technically I have mine on order with my dealer.

He did say that there really aren't any major changes other than colors. But I guess we will find out

Makes sense! Thanks for the update.

what options did you get?

Just checked on the Explorer Timberline
Like a lot of the options but can only get the 4 banger in it "FOOEY"
That killed it for me
Would be a great vehicle option if the 3.0L V6 dual turbo engine was available

Nice! Would you mind updating this thread when you hear that your order is officially placed? I'm holding off to make a purchase until the 2022s are available. Thanks!

Geez, they're still putting chrome lug nuts on the black wheels. You'd think they would figure out people don't like that but, then again, maybe they have and that is why for just $233 you can get a set of black Ford Performance lug nuts, lol. After the sale sales.
