For those of us in the civilised world, what is a Ford Explorer ?

Is it something that boldly crosses shallow streams in search of new lands ?

That's certainly the image they want to project. In reality, it is usually a mom driving her single child to day-care on city streets... Or some guy who actually needs a minivan to haul his family around, but wants to think he's outdoorsy and rugged.

As for the vehicle, it's an SUV. Think "full sized pickup with a bed cap permanently installed, with lots of seats" and you're pretty close.

Exploders are more mid-sized though. Expedition is full sized, and Excursion is XXL.
