The response form most all CHP officers I talk to, do not like the Explorer.
It is gutless, hard to see backing up, not a lot of room in the back. ( Radio equipment takes up most of the available room. )
Guess it is not real fast out of the hole. Not a lot of power.
Areas that deal with snow, that enforce chain requirements, are trying to deal with their explorers as you can not put chains on them. So the question is.... how do they enforce chain requirements when their vehicle can not be equipped with them. lol Good point !
What I heard was, they will not buy any more explorers, when they run out of them ( like they did with the last crown vic ) at Fleet Services, that is suppose to be the last of them. But who am I to say.
I did hear that Nevada is not going to use them again. They do not like them at all is what I heard.
I'm not a fan of dodge products, but it will be good to see the charger on the road again. It is a bad ass looking vehicle. Too bad it is a dodge lol
