As for the Mustang, no third-party parts in it... every Mod was taken directly from the Ford Racing Parts catalogue. I made sure the Mustang remained a Mustang.

The X5 is built like a tank and has many safety/convenience features that the Explorer doesn't. Shut the front door on an X5 and then shut the front door of an Explorer and you will immediately tell the difference in materials/quality.
There is a reason the e53 X5 was one of the safest vehicles ever tested when it came out.
