No it isn't. It's a three row crossover. Full size SUVs are Tahoes, Expeditions, etc.


My bad, it's a mid-size SUV. Not sure why I said Full size.

Feel free to comment on how wrong you were about the Explorer pricing over the years and also your lack of understanding regarding inflation.

I understand inflation just fine. And the average 2005 Explorer still didn't cost $34k. I was right about that, and you admitted as much earlier. You've demonstrated you don't know much about the Explorers, so not really sure why you're trying to swing your dick around. This is the minivan thread all over again.

Please quote where I said the average price was $34k as opposed to the average MSRP. You won't be able to and that speaks more to your poor reading comprehension than anything else. It also speaks to your reliance on straw man arguments.

You said that the Ford Explorer has never been more expensive. You either don't understand inflation or you didn't know what you were talking about. Which is it?

Do you know what the P in MSRP stands for? Don't be that guy.

You're using word you clearly don't understand. Cute.

Just like I thought. You have nothing. I can't believe you're still so butthurt that I made fun of your minivan

You need to let it go.

"The Explorer has never been more expensive"

Pretending like inflation isn't a real thing

The Explorer? No, it's a a 3 row crossover. Basically a minivan without the sliding doors.

The Explorer and Pathfinder used to be SUVs. They are minivans now.

Yes it is. LNCH already said it, but I'll reiterate. It's a 3 row unibody built on a Taurus chassis with a front wheel drive bias. For sales and marketing, sure it's an "SUV", but at its core its a crossover. The old Explorers were true body on frame SUV's though.

ETA: on topic...Camry doesn't look awful. That said, I really don't like where Lexus is going with their design and I see it's now trickling down to Toyota. Acura and Infiniti both went off the deep end with ugly design but they've finally realed it back in a bit, Toyota/Lexus needs to do the same.

You are right. A crossover with 3 rows of seats is basically a minivan.

Just bought one for my wife, as in two hours ago. When did they start letting you pay with a credit card?

What kind of idiot are you for believing stuff like this? Just because your grandpa told you this based on info from probably the 80's it's still not true.
