Hi all, was recently in Manila (Philippines) and saw a lot of new Explorers on the road, must say they look awesome. Pity we can't have them here. Sorry no photos.

Same here, i was there about 2 weeks ago.
Had a ride in the previous model Everest too, seemed a bit agricultural to me. The new Explorers do look good though. Manila traffic, especially near the Airport terminals, is terrible.

Now that's Promising, there's still hope of Getting the Explorer here. sadly it will be a dated model by then.

I was in the US earlier this year, and the Explorer didn't stand out in any way to me. It's old hat already - been out for 5 years or so. A new majorly overhauled model is on the way for the 2016 model year anyway.

Not a fan either, while the Everest isn't as futuristic looking as the Explorer, I'd take one any day
