Face Off: Ford Explorer EcoBoost vs Dodge Durango HEMI

[@MandusahRamirez]

I have a 2016 Explorer Sport and when I put it in Sport and Sand Mode I’ve kept up with Charger R/Ts👌🏽

[@dustingwin5291]

I own a 2014 Ford Explorer Sport and I love it.

[@dustingwin5291]

@@mr.2cents.846 2020 ST is definitely better. Excited for the 25 redesign

[@bbrewer609]

Why would you take the Explorer luxury version "Platinum" and compare it to the Durango RT? The Platinum Explorer has different AWD, EPAS, PTU, Exhaust, and engine tuning compared to the Explorer Sport. A better comparison is the Explorer Sport against the Durango RT.

[@TestDrivenTV]

We test what we are given, we don't always get to choose our options and trim grades.

[@javim9621]

B Brewer he is comparing brand to brand wat is he suppost to compare it with ford has nothing else to offer to compare with the durango unless he gets the expadition wich is a full siz suv and still they put the rcobooat in it it would do worse lol durango best of both worlds fords alwase last

[@bbrewer609]

He is supposed to compare it to the Explorer Sport which is that segments equal rival. You don't compare the Dodge Charger R/T to the Taurus Limited you compare it to the Taurus SHO. Now there are two people who don't know product models.

[@javim9621]

B Brewer dude it wouldnt matter the performance is the same in the sport the only diffrence is rims and a couple diffrent features that dont make the exolorer better then the r/t unless u think that blacked out accents give the explorer more hp lol

[@bbrewer609]

Dude, the Sport is completely different, suspension, wheels, EPAS tuning, spring rates, transmission programming, PTU programming, AWD programming, engine programming etc etc. Not even close to the Platinum. It just shows the person making the video doesn't know vehicles at all.

[@Pigpen76]

we're six months into an explorer sport. love it. great power, comfortable, great fit and finish. i really like the looks and fit and finish of the interior. its one of the best vehicle purchases ive ever made. mpg could be better but i cant complain with the power it has. i like the durango as well. the new srt version looks great. hopefully they offer a hellcat version lol. im surprised by the better mpg in the R/T vs Exp EB but i guess due to being only RWD and also the cylinder deactivation. im sure it can tow more as well. and yes, you cant beat the V8 sound, but the Exp EB doesnt sound too bad stock. when you get on it it has a nice growl. but still, no V8. the Exp EB is basically a big taurus sho. it has more car like handling than a frame based suv. i also got stuck taking it off road in the mountains on a small trail covered in snow and i was blown away with its ability to maintain traction the entire time. i think the Exp has a little more style than the RT which is a little plain but still looks good. id certainly buy either one over any of the import offerings in this segment. too bad GM doesnt have anything to compete with these two.

[@Dre-ib6si]

How did the explorer hold up?

[@elalbino09]

Durango all the way, have a '15 RT white with the blacktop package and the entertaiment system and no explorer can beat the looks and sounds of that car. That is without bringing up the fact that mine has the tow package and it hauls my 30' travel trailer almost 6500 pounds dry weight and it does it like a champ.

[@tylerharvey8299]

I test drove and explorer with the 3.5 NA V6 and the turbo. Drove a 2018 Durango RT and V6. As I was looking for a big 3 row SUV. The explorer with the TT 3.5 was very un fuel efficient. Fast yes, but where I live you can utilize much of that. Lots of city driving so the MPG was horrible. The NA V6 is a good 3 MPG better in city during my drive. However it felt a little gutless especially until the RPMs were really high. The Durango Rt was horrible on gas. Terrible. I ended up buying a Durango with the V6 and non Awd. It gets 24 MPG and it performs really well with he tuning on the 8 spd. Love it

[@Baph0met666]

being a 2015 durango owner I think you should of been in sport mode plus use the paddle shifters there's a difference whether you think or not you will notice the response time in acceleration. although you did mention you avoided the paddle shifters because of the gear knob it doesn't get in the way of the shifters. Give it a try and do another review with the durango in sport plus the shifters. Although mine doesn't have the sport mode since it was added until 2016 just the paddle shifters make a significant difference now with the sport mode option and paddle shifters I will say it will increase your acceleration.

[@phillipzamora865]

Just picked up the 18 RT today and couldn't be happier . It's a tank but a fun one to drive

@ TestDrivenTV, At 3:16, you're referencing the Durango, and a SECOND later, at 3:17, you're showing and driving the EcoBoost Explorer. When the shot concludes at 4:54, you're suddenly back at an interior shot of the Durango Engine. Please explain. What are you doing?

[@lego4virgo]

I wonder how the V6 '17 Explorer stacks up against the V6 '17 Durango, tho'?

[@Jhonnyblaze28]

V6 Durango is heavier than the NA V6 Explorer

[@matthew_harris]

I current have 2015 Explorer Sport, also had one before this one for three years. Its been a good truck, but I don't love it. Around town I get 15 avg, on the highway I get upwards of 18. Towing my 20 ft boat I get about 9-10 mpg. When you stomp on it you can smell fumes inside the cabin, same as my first one. My first one I blew both the Turbos. The ecoboost is not all what its cracked up to be. I miss my GMC Denali and the V8, I may be going for the Dodge this time around to get back to the V8 feeling I miss so much.

[@vika262626]

I own a Ford Explorer Sport eco boost twin turbo . I have also driven a hemi Durango .. Well I own the Ford . It's much better quality and faster from red light to red light .. And I dont have to worry about recalls every month ,, AND it looks better !!

[@bigbossman5969]

keep it real ford have there share of problems 2. that eco boost ant all that. wait till u have to replace turbo s. and with direct injection thats even worse. plus the poor millage the eco boost get in the real world. u can't eaven compare the 2. the Durango is a heavier vehicle for 1. and its rear wheel drive. learn what u talking about before u come on here

[@afterburner666]

[@twobanger21]

Dodge builds cars that you want. Too bad their QC sucks. Fords are more reliable.

[@dmaack4207]

While I have a Durango and I constantly beat exploders from red light to red light and can also tow 3 exploders that have been broken down while doing it can you?

[@joelrepass2379]

I like the fact my Durango doesn't look like a police car. As long as the Durango has a Hemi it is pretty reliable. Also, you seemed to miss the part where the Ford Explorers had problems with C02 getting in the cabin. In all honesty, the Dodge and Ford Explorer is for 2 different types a people. The Explorers are more like undercover minivans. The Dodge is rear wheel drive and can also tow.

[@carfanfan]

Love our reviews Sam - never miss any of them ;-)

[@memphislos10]

I can tell you this.I just purchase last week a 2017 Durango GT AWD with the black top package and its very fun to drive. Drives very different from the 2012 I previously own.I actually was trying to get away from buying a Durango. But what you get for the money is hard to pass up. After a month of researching and test driving SUVs .The only SUV I would have chose over the Durango would have been the Chevy Tahoe ,but I was not going to pay $66.000 for a Chevy Suv.

[@dmaack4207]

66$ is a steal lol

[@gregblack8550]

Is it still running. It’s been a minute?

[@watchandjewelryloft4713]

I came from a 2007 GMC Acadia to a 2011 AWD Durango V6. I really like what Dodge is doing with the Durango. I've driven a 2016 AWD R/T and a GT. Both are very nice, especially with the 8 speed. We looked at many 3 row SUV's when we were trying to replace the Acadia. The Ford just didn't seem roomy enough. And, for the price of the Eco-Boost, you just can't deny the Hemi. And in your case, better MPG's? Amazing. This with a pushrod V8 compared to a Turbo V6 too.

[@nbowling10trio]

I'd drive either one. They're both excellent vehicles. Great reviews

[@onabrebv]

Explorer is the top selling SUV. Looked at every SUV for every make. And I bought... Ford Explorer 3 hours ago!

[@davidklimmek3192]

Smart move! We looking @ Platinum & ST variations now for family. If u have the Ecoboost motor.. change to "full synthetic oil" at 1500mis ..then change every 5k mis there after it last forever. Enjoy.

[@proejo]

Totaled my 2014 Durango Citadel. Walked away virtually unscathed. Needed a new car, and compared Durango Citadel Platinum to the Explorer Platinum. The build quality and quality of materials in the Ford was much higher. The Explorer Platinum was more feature rich, the Sony premium sound system is much better than the awful Beats by Dre sound system in the new Durango, and up front, there's more leg room for my wife, who works on her computer while we're on road trips. The Durango has a more comfortable, soft ride, and I do miss the well laid out touch screen system and controls on the steering wheel of the Durango, though. As for road noise, both seem to excel in this area, and wind noise from the skylights on both isn't that bad, actually. Having had the Durango, one factor that was critical for me was exterior styling. It's due for a makeover. It looks like every Dodge Durango going back eight years, so I didn't want to get stuck with an older design when Dodge issues a redesigned Durango in a year or two. I would love to have an SRT for fun, though, but.... with teenagers at home, no way! Insurance would be through the roof!

[@Allegronaut]

I've got to agree with Riyad Kalla, you took the easy way out on this one Sam, I think as a performance oriented person you could've given a hint to your preference. That being said, you are correct when it comes down to personal preference, and I don't think people who are really interested in one will be looking hard at the other one.

[@ronhuff9219]

Durango all day, got one, love it. Important to note that during my shopping I found the Dodge also to more price competitive than the Ford (at least here in Florida).

[@therelaxedguy542]

I have always loved the Explorer. Seeing it is running for the luxury and sporty department with some models, makes me love them more. Never had I seen the Durango, and while I prefer it's V8 sound, I think i'd go with the Explorer Platinum. Awesome video!

[@kdw75]

We have a 2015 Explorer Sport, which should have the same engine and suspension as the one you drove, and I feel like it handles amazingly well for a 5,000 pound SUV. Dare I say it handles almost as well as my '96 Trans-AM did.

[@5hoyuChicken]

Nice vid. I own a 2013 Explorer Sport and love it. It hauls the family, looks good, and has some "go" as well...BUT the 2018 Durango SRT seems VERY tempting...

[@ivanvelarde148]

I wish you did some sort of tow review. The only reason I'm considering a durango is because of its high tow rating for its class.

[@eliseorodriguez-torres1774]

There has been the issue of valve dropping into the cilider bay that Dodge has not addressed yet. Then there is the issue of blown head gaskets.

[@bradleygibson1137]

I just replaced my 2014 Dodge Durango R/T AWD with ........ another Dodge Durango R/T AWD. I liked the first one so much the only way I wanted to return it to the leasing company was to get the same Spec'd 2017 version with the SRT version becoming available in 2018 , sounds like it will only get better !. And the "sound" is awesome !

[@rkalla]

Sam, you played it safe with this one and I understand why but I think a lot of us are wondering what a car expert like yourself would spend your money on and why. It would have been nice at the end of the video to have you weigh in with exactly that but then clarify that the vehicles are two very different things and that if your needs differ from someone else's the other SUV might make more sense or something equally diplomatic. I understand avoiding the Wrath of the Ford or Dodge group :-)

[@TestDrivenTV]

Neither one is on our "Id Buy It" list ;)

[@rkalla]

ahhhhhh, ok roger that :)

Which essentially means the review was pointless...why compare something for ten plus minutes w/o giving your "expert" opinion on preference between the two??? That is why people search and click the video...LOL You certainly dont think people come to see you spout arbitrary facts with no climax...which would be your OPINON...LOL Complete waste of youtube space.

[@01trsmar]

Dodge Durango RT...these are reliable, powerful beasts !

[@beefbottom]

I like the Dodge looks and platform (rear drive / awd), and simpler V-8 engine, but would worry about overall fit and finish and cut corners in places that you can't see. I would trust Ford more regarding the corner cutting and fit and finish, but am not a fan of the eco-boost engine.

[@xTouragx]

With all things being equal I would take the Dodge..V8, RWD based and that sound..done.

[@LARmdpc1]

How about comfort for the 2nd and 3rd row passengers. It feels tight in the Explorer compared to the Durango?

[@chernowitz]

Transverse engine set up on Ford makes it basically a front heavy, front wheel drive piece of junk. All respect to Dodge for being faithful to longitudinal engine setup. Which makes it more fun in cornering having the 50/50 weight distribution

[@tomh507]

Can't beat the V8 sound

[@hbk2233kgb]

Brodie Hendrickson yes dodge have better v8 sound but against ford ecoboost dodge will be behind ford in acceleration

[@GodRam1988]

I disagree! I have a hemi 8 speed ram with 3.92 rear! I have never lost to the lighter Ford F-150 with the twin turbo v6 Eco boost! It all comes down to the rear gear for the win! As for reliability my o4 ram had 202k miles on it with only a egr valve that I had to replace! The hemi engine is a proven and reliable engine that will easily outlast the strung out little v6 with boost shoved down its throat

Drop a 5.0 with a 10-sp transmission into the Explorer, and it will not only give you the same or better real-life mileage, it will also last twice as long as that ecoboost.
