Stay tuned for a ton of reviews from the Chicago Auto Show! Lori & I made to bust out butts for you!

I just purchased a 2024 Ford Explorer ST for my Family. This SUV is a Beast and look super cool.

I'm not religious but THANK GOD they fixed that dang screen. The vertical iPad made this a "no go" for me the last few years but now I might need to reconsider. Another great post, Joe. Cheers.

Like the new infotainment screen! Horizontal landscape screen is much better than vertical.

Really getting in love with Joe's videos! Super on-point and exactly what you need to know - no mean opinions or prejudice. At the same time very entertaining - not dry or boring. Very energetic and refreshing! LOVE the zanking - again, not dogmatic, just an opinion. Thank you very much for this great content! And this really made me want one of these new Explorers (driving a 2017 XLT now).

I had a couple of Explorers back in the 80"s before I switched to the Expedition. It's about time they updated this model. Would have been nice if they painted the outside wheel wells. The inside is great and I like the soundbar going across the dash for us hard of hearing rockers from the 70's &80's! Great review!

I work at a dealership and have been blessed with a demo perk so I have driven freely in all the new SUV models, from Escapes to Bronco Sports, Explorers and Expeditions. Ford has done so well on these 24s and 25s cramming as much bang for your buck as you can get, technology especially! At the age of 35 however, I feel like an old senile senior that is inflexible to change and forced to get with the ages to learn the digital touchscreen climate controls. IMO it requires taking your hand and eyes off the wheel longer than the old knobs under the centerstack which in my opinion were easier to use and safer. At least until you get enough reps in for it to become muscle memory anyway. But all jokes aside though, the value in these Fords is insane!!!

I think black ford emblems would look super cool on this

Love it, Joe. Great car and excellent review as always 👏

First ford explorer with the tail lights integrated into the tailgate, love the look

Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true 👍

You are so right about painting that part. I do agree.

I see the Mustang GTD in the background 😩 So fire!

thanks Joe I was trying to eat healthy but I went out and bought the usual healthy stuff and 2 boxes of twinkies. love this channel and the reviews

Amazing review Joe.

Our boy Raiti doesn’t miss

I actually like how the exhaust points down. Not a zonk for me.

I have a 2020 Explorer ST and it’s the best long trip family car I’ve ever had

The color's nice. I'm looking forward to what else you have to show us.

I agree with you Joe on the styling on the front. Don’t like the fender cladding as well. I do wish they would’ve given it a little bump in HP. Overall, especially given the price point. A nice package!

Great video! Best car reviewer!

Who’s Watching In 2024?

Great video, I really liked the new design on the explorer

Looks really good! When I see these in all black I always want one 🔥

I saw you guys videoing the Escalade IQ in the background of Kyle's walk around the show video!

Yes the fenders should’ve had the body color for sure. I would still pick the Telluride over this, they should bring back Eddie Bauer edition or at least King Ranch with two tone paint job

You are too funny! Love your reviews!

I like the redesigned interior but not digging that new grille…I much prefer the previous one…

Great review.

We ordered a 2025 but hadn't seen one so thanks. Love it👍👍👍

I’m loving the ST now but the only gripe is the plastic cladding

I am impressed with the new design. Interior dash is excellent and the sound bar integration is a great unique and all alone design by Ford. Nobody else thought of it or have it. Exterior looks good too. My only zonk I can think of is that third row legroom. Looks like it’s still about an inch or more less legroom than the Grand Highlander, new Traverse, and Honda Pilot. But still a good looking SUV that will definitely sell!

After watching your presentation on the 25 ST, earlier this week. My wife and I drove to R E Barber Ford in Holland, and put an order in for the loaded ST. I included the Black feature in the top and the A & B pilers. I’m disappointed in one item, we ordered it in the Rapid Red color and I want chrome rims on this awesome vehicle so it will look even better than those painted rims. I’m excited to get it.

THE BUSINESS BABY!

I use to own two 2020 explorer st look awesome and unique with black out wheels. This new explorer looks like old explorer and crossover with other brands…

Like the 20-24 grille If the want the turbo air colder upgrade and enlarge the intercooler instead of using the EDGE 1. Yes paint fender flares. Add back glove box and arm console lights.

Damn Joe u grind harder than a Robot 🥊🍻 And shout out to Ford for their new Interior Tech.....looking great 💯💰

Love it. Love the length being under 200 inches!! And still tow over 5,000 lbs! You missed the vibrating seats. Gonna order one as soon as it's available!

Really beautiful suv am loving it!

I have a 20' and a 21' ST 1 for me and wife. They have the best damn brakes I ever had on any vehicle we have the Steet Performance package on both. Glad they updated wireless charging my phones won't fix in older years.

Hey Joe are the AC vents still on above? Really liked that set up as air hit you right on the face.

I have a 21 ST...bang for buck, cannot be beat. Just wish the new one had adaptive suspension.

This is a beautiful suv and I’m a Chevy guy but the only zonk i do have is the flat black fender wells i would rather for them to color match them

I’m in a 2020 and I cant wait to upgrade to this 2025 this or in the year 2025 !!!

The exhaust dumps down like that because if it didn’t, the whole back of the car would get caked in carbon like my focus st does

I’m not sure how annoying that sensor on the steering wheel would be but it sucks it’s not for active cruise as I first thought maybe another model will be compatible with the sensor

As much as I hate those tablets on the dash, I must say this one looks pretty nice.

I currently have a 2021 ST Explorer, fully optioned. Love it, but I really like the screens in this one. I think I will probably trade mine in late 2024

Love the design, pretty sure the performance is algo great. Feeling tempted.

Definitely wish they would've color matched the fender flares!! 😕 other than that... 🔥🔥🔥

I’m not sold on the layout of that new digital gauge cluster with the map taking up almost the entire screen, also no one has yet to show CarPlay integration or what that would look like in the gauge cluster and also in the infotainment. Hoping someone does this soon!!! I’ll have to see if the gauge cluster is customizable I prefer the album art up on the left and the speed in the middle, don’t need the google maps if I’m not even using that for navigation

From your review. I feel the 2025 Explorer ST is at the top of the mid size performance SUV segment when you consider it's over looks. Performance. The upgraded overall interior with it's new dual digital infotainment displays. The 2025 Explorer ST now includes many extras like the dual panel sun roof that were previous options making the 2025 Explorer ST a solid bang for the buck.

I'm thinking of buying a new SUV and I found your review very helpful! Thanks

Lookin sharp in the Puma Suedes Joe

Rati you did a great job tho! Does it have sync 5 wireless ?

Hi Joe, I actually don't mind having these dark fender flares. It gives the vehicle a dark look at the bottom all the way around. Second: Great video. It seems to me you guys are a good team, doing an outstanding job. That's why people love your video's.

I own a 2020 st street pack, I love the new looks of the 25 not a fan of none projector Headlights for the cost so I'll make the switch to the ranger raptor with dual projector Headlights

Nice can’t wait to see it in person like this color but don’t want a sunroof du to hail damage on my present car

Did they fix the rear diff issue?

it looks very good! high level

One of the rare few decent looking suv stll wouldn't own a suv tho. Looks less aggressive than the last one.The also 4:50 the random guy in the background just crawing

A solid improvement over the old one. Really wanted to see some sort of active exhaust/steering/suspension adjustment options like on other performance ford products. Along with metal paddle shifters on the steering wheel. My two zonks. Apart from that the interior is miles better.

I love the exterior style of the explorer but I wish they would take a page from the honda pilot book on the second row center console. Seat drops down for a nice arm rest with cup holders or you have the option to take it out.

I like the navigation size, pano roof Lexus RX350 luxury offers the 14” screen though

How does this perform off-road? 4*4?

finally they improve the interior, worthy upgrade

This is one beautiful suv ❤🔥

I think the interior looks really good. For me, even more tasteful than other models from "luxury" brands

Where is your spare tire located on the ST?

Hey Raiti! are you gonna film the platinum one?

At least they got rid of that vertical screen , always hated mine

Beautiful color!

Hey Joe this ford explorer this is Awesome suv and i'm back

cant wait to drive this and experience the tech upgrade over my 2019

I have always loved this car

What is the tow rating?

The plastics on the lower part of the bodywork make it look low budget. Seat controls on the door panel seem more accessible and intuitive.

The update looks good. I like the new added Google tech. I wish they kept the black wheels. Those shout ST to me. On a black vehicle, these new one's stand out in a bad way.

I have a 2022 ST. I 'll get a 2025 in August.

I think it looks a little bit less aggressive than the previous. The interior is a big step up.

love it. my next car

Where does front license plate go ?Colorado is strict on front & back plates ugh!

Does the Ford Explorer ST have Bi-Function LED Projector Headlights?

This is one beautiful car. I'll need one next year. How much will it be.

It’s super awesome, but is this suv a hybrid? Also, what would be the mileage? Thank you 😊

I like the contrast of the black wheel fender lips on the ST, not the Platinum though....

So many easy fixes and this thing would look so much better, nice big exhaust quad tips in the back and painted fenders and rockers and this would be a seriously sexy performance SUV.

I love the 2025 Ford Explorer I think this is a dandy of am SUV.

The ST events are so fun! I had no idea I was getting this when I bought my 22 wasn’t gonna do the event went literally the last event date I qualified for and wish I didn’t it sooner. Did the Performance Racing School too that was so much fun too! YES so tired of the plastic black fender flares they keep getting smaller but stop already paint it. People HAVE to send in their comments and complaints or it won’t change. I send my uncle messages all the time as an engineer for Ford to go to the dpt that designed this or this and ask WHY?! 😂 I am glad they turned the large screen with this model I chose the small screen when I built mine because the larger one went vertical it was stupid. AND the change for the wireless charging it was in the middle console and didn’t fit a large phone I’ve used it once because I had no other charger that day.

12:08 words of Wisdom.....frfr 💵

Great video as always. I’ll NEVER get over the prices on these vehicles. Keep going higher and higher Unaffordable for alotnof people. Don’t want or need a $609-700 payment.

I agree with the fenders, they need to be painted. Also the rear wiper…they should have taken it from the nautilus and tucked it underneath the spoiler. Otherwise I really like the ST model. Thanks for the video, love watching these prior to deciding on a new vehicle.

What’s the name of the exterior color Raiti?

Love that new ST explorer!

Can you get black wheels? Is that an option?

When are they going to put the Predator engine in one of these. Trackhawk who?

What color is that?

I like the new face-lift, the square grill is a much better look for Ford as a whole

I really like it, though I wish the climate controls were physical buttons instead of in the infotainment screen. Also, with the number of times you remark about having the rear glass wiper manufactured hidden, you'd think companies catch wind of this from other consumers and act on it.🤨

Yeah of course Joe & I will try to afford this.
