you can drive most any other SUV out there to get an idea on how the VX would handle with the sway bars disconnected ........
.
just kidding ....... although the prev generation Explorer - even with quality aftermarket shock absorbers fitted ...... reminds me of a VX with blown shock absorbers and sway bars disconnected .........
.
amusing .... funny ......... ironic ............ everybody is 'up in arms' over the Firestone tires on the (prev gen) Ford Explorer ........ meanwhile, the suspension and brakes are the real issue with the Explorer .......... the engineers at Ford fitted the Explorer with one of the worst handling/suspension packages ever ........ and a mediocre braking system ...... (even the models equipped with 4 wheel discs and ABS had poor stopping distances) ........
