I had issues with both the 2016 Explorer and my main RV hauler.
Took them to the local Ford dealership and traded them and some cash on a new ride.
2023 XLT 5.0 4x4 with max tow package. It was a leftover listed at 62.5k after 7k leftover discount, 3k in rebates, 2k down and the trades I walked out owing 30k.
Nice! You're gonna love that Coyote 5.0! It has that distinctive growl when you floor it. Also can get pretty good mileage in ECO mode. We have a 2018 F-150 Sport (shift on fly 4WD but default is 2WD high) with that motor and it is like nothing else. Tows great, so far lots of horse trailering for the wife and we did a Summer road trip with my Toybox last year and loved. it. Enjoy!
