I bring up the F150's because the sales guy told me it's the same engine. I read later that the F150 is tweaked for more torque.

But I really enjoyed the Sport. Very nice inside and a great ride. It's worth looking at.

F150 is amazing. I drove my uncle's F150 one for a while few years ago, really amazing vehicle. I can totally understand Explorer driving like one, except the add'l torque and the weight, and hopefully a bit more under control since F150 is listed to accommodate the load. It's very quiet, very very comfortable, even more comfortable than the GLE because seats were so plush and roomy, not the mention the amazing visibility. If I had room, I'd go into Expedition, or maybe Navigator.
