Towing with a Ford Explorer
Hey guys, I was pointed over here by another forum because I'm getting a bit of conflicting info. I have a 2015 Ford Explorer Limited with a V6 3.5L engine. I do NOT have the Ford Towing Packag...

ugh. ok. sounds like we will be looking at lighter popups for right now and if we really want to do this - invest in a truck, I guess. Kind of a bummer.
don't get too hard on yourself.
I have a 2016 f150 5L (super crew and 4x4)
wife has a 2017 explorer (3,5 NA)
mine:
was cheaper to buy (both bought new at end of the year)
is cheaper to insure
gets better gas milage (even with the 5L by quite a bit)
has more room
does more stuff
has a bigger backseat for the kids
tows better
and that's all with the 5.0L and the 6 speed.
current models are 10 speed, pairing that to the 3.5 eco is about as much fun as you can get out of a half ton.
