You say you prefer technology to be user-friendly? The XLT trim (one level up from basic) is eligible for an 8-inch touch screen, the well-evolved Sync 3 infotainment system, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto with Waze, remote start and lock/unlock. The 2019 Explorer is also wearing the years well, looking like a less-well-off person’s Range Rover.
SUV or not, the Ford Explorer’s main purpose is not exploring wilder places. Sure, the new Explorer offers all-wheel drive and even a terrain-management system that deals with various tricky surfaces, but off-roading is not a reason for buying one. It would be wiser to check out the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Toyota 4Runner or the Land Rover Discovery.
