No strength in the aluminum...crumples up just like a beer can.....

That is what makes it safe!

The Ford aluminum bodies are just as safe as steel bodies for sure. However they are at a disadvantage to steel vehicles in minor accidents as demonstrated by IIHS testing (Low speed crashes).

At a disadvantage for body damage but cabin intrusion is still pretty much zilch

Nice floor, debating on doing something similar. Can you use a floor jack on those?

Car arrives - ordered Feb 9

Depends of the footprint of your jack wheels. I put down a small sheet of plywood. I absolutely love the floor and would highly recommend it. Ribtrax by Swisstrax. Installed myself. Living in ND its amazing how well it drains snow and leaves a clean dry surface.

Are those pics of your garage? If so that’s seriously bad a$$! I have not looked at swisstrax but I will now, I have looked at both Garage flooring INC, and Racedeck Garage floors so far. None are cheap but I do want something on my bare floor and I’m just not sold on the long term durability of epoxy. I like that you can change out a tile if it becomes damaged.

Pics coming soon, still in FL after driving/flying family down to Arcadia to pick up our new Silver Max Platinum. Will continue road trip back to NJ later today with amazing wife to follow with youngest on a flight back on Monday after a well earned R&R.

Beautiful pic! Love the contrast of that red Expy against the blue house. Nice looking Expy!

I love it. Have done the “brightlites” puddle/license plate conversions and just got driver and passenger windows 3M 25% tinted today. So can’t roll windows down or r wash again for 5 days. Trying to find best phone mount for iPhone X and still messing with wethertech vs ford liners questions.

Here are some early shots more to come once she gets all squared away. Did windows and “de-badge

If anyone needs a great phone mount, I highly recommend these.

Blends in nicely with the interior too!

I order and received mine. Just curious do you have an iPhone 8, X or other wireless charging phone? If so where did you place the steel sticker, I don’t want to lose wireless charging.


Sorry Pics added now, darn technology gremlins.

I don't use wireless charging so just stuck the plate in the middle of the phone.

Thanks, just trying to find a way to make it work. I really like this mount.

Here's my new black beauty!
2018 4x4 Platinum
I'm so thrilled with this truck. I had a 2016 Explorer Sport (great car, btw), and this was a beautiful upgrade.
