Hi All

New here and I have a question.
I ordered a 2013 Explorer Ecoboost with a turbo charged 2000cc engine.
I wonder if anyone has experience with this SUV ?
HOw you like it ?
How good on gas is it ?

Any comment will be greatly appreciated.

I haven't driven a new Explorer with EcoBoost, but I can say I'm rather impressed with the EcoBoost V6 in my Taurus SHO. It has great power, virtually no turbo lag, and even when I drive quite aggressively I get better fuel economy than my former, smaller and lighter, Infiniti G35s got with only RWD and the same size V6.

Also, considering this is a new engine, there have been very few major issues reported on one of the dedicated V6 EcoBoost forums that I monitor.
