Well, my story is interesting and sad at the same time. I had some new tires installed on the Explorer a week ago. Due to my own lazyness I didn`t bother to check the pressure. After a week of driving, the X just was not driving right. This morning I decided to get off my lazy butt and check the tire pressure. The two rear tires had 37 psi, front driver tire had 41 psi, and the front passenger has a whopping 46 psi.
Ford spec on Explorer tires is 30 psi all around. As you can see, the idiots at the tire shop didn`t bother to put the correct pressure in. Incorrect tire pressure is dangerous (could cause blowout ), and can hurt ride quality and gas mileage. Moral of the story is, don`t be lazy like me. Check your tire pressure often! Especially after any type of work is done on your vehicle.
