So far, only when it comes down to standard production vehicles. Personally, I think the Explorers are too small. There actually appears to be less room in the standard passenger compartment than in the Crown Vics. The color looks bad as well. White would have been better than this non-matching red. I hope the money saved was worth it.
On a positive note, by spec'ing the same size lightbars for the Explorers as they did the larger Expeditions it looks like if the BC's approach stopped traffic fast enough, they will actually produce enough lift to literally fly over traffic jams.
Hopefully the Explorers will not last long and they move to Expeditions, F150's, or Tahoe's for everyone - and hopefully they can match the rest of the fleet.
