I like the higher trims better than the ST. Don't like blacked out grills. I am done with 'sport' versions in fact. There was a time when you needed to step up to get decent power, but now you see it in high trim levels and it is more than adequate. Boy racer look no more for me.
It was about time, wonder if the Aviator has it or the Ford model gets it first. Now is time to see if Lincoln or Ford can launch something like Cadillac supercruise or Tesla autopilot system

I bet a big part of the decision for portrait orientation, is it allows placement of vents. Thinking a bit more, I prefer that when using my smart phone 95% of the time, especially when using navigation mode. I rarely rotate, except when videos appear too small. No worries here as you don't watch movies. And of course you can stack the functional menu options differently to use the space more effectively. It did surprise me a bit having sat in one, but I am already used to it I think.
The more I see the inside of the new Explorer, the less I like it. Why give prominence to the air vents? Why not place them more flush with the dash and give more prominence to the central screen? This design suggests a F-series truck from years ago. Very rude, not very elegant, unattractive to the eye. I predict that it will be changed in 3 years for something more attractive.
If Ford gave it slim low-mounted horizontal central AC vents, they probably would have been able to give it a huge horizontal screen.
I still find it funny how the AC vent-infotainment screen layout of the EcoSport (and other new small Fords) has more in common with the Lincoln Aviator (and Navigator) than the new Explorer.
So other than the Shelby which is a limited specialty vehicle and the Explorer, this is all we get? I'm really disappointed that nothing on the Bronco or Baby Bronco was shown.

Y'all quit yer bitchin, the Aviator could have been the XT6 and the XT6 could have been the Aviator! We just don't know how to win around here I guess!
