damn those things are nice.

I see you're smart enough to clean off the wheelin' evidence by driving through that puddle.
 
I like the looks of the new Explorers.

However, compared to my new Grand Cherokee, they ride and drive like crap. The new GC's have more pep with a smaller engine and have a 10x better ride than the Explorers (I drive an '03 Explorer every day for work). When we was looking for my wife a new vehicle, we drove both the Explorer and the GC and we both agreed that the GC was a much better vehicle than the Explorer.
 
yeah i hate it cuz it has 18 inch rims, the tires are bald anyway

Mom has an '02 with the 4.0, rides like a dream, and can still overpower the limited slip for a brief tire squack before the automatic 4x4 kicks in.

I gotta try one of them CG thingies sometime, because honestly I don't know how you could make the ride 10x better.
 
Nice truck!

On an aside, It would have been nice to have seen FORD put as much effort into the ranger as they did with the current explorer.. And damn bring back a standard tranny in al of the cars!

Trust me, it is. I would much rather go on a road trip in the GC than in my Explorer (which I spend more road time in the Explorer since I use it for work).
