Why reserve a 2027 Explorer now?
The Explorer has been the family three-row SUV of choice across central Minnesota for a long time, and the 2027 is coming. If you want a specific trim — ST, Platinum, King Ranch, or one of the Active configurations — with a particular seating layout, tow package, or color, reserving early is how you make sure your exact build doesn’t get lost in the allocation shuffle.
Jay Malone Ford is taking 2027 Explorer reservations right now. No deposit, no obligation, and takes about two minutes. A few quick questions now means your build is prioritized when Ford opens the order bank.

Before you reserve
Does reserving cost anything?
No. There’s no deposit, no fee, and no commitment. Reserving simply tells us what you want so we can prioritize your build when 2027 Explorer allocations open.
When will the 2027 Explorer arrive at Jay Malone Ford?
Ford has not announced a specific on-sale date yet. We’ll update reservation holders the moment we have firm timing — you’ll hear from us before the general public does.
Can I change my preferences later?
Absolutely. Your reservation is a starting point, not a contract. Switch trims, change drivetrains, change colors, or walk away — whatever works for you.
What if I’m trading in my current Explorer or another vehicle?
Mention your trade when you reach out. We can pull a trade value on your current vehicle anytime — no obligation to act on it. A lot of our 2027 reservations will come from customers trading in a late-model Explorer, and those trade values are strong right now.
Can I reserve an Explorer ST or Platinum?
Yes. Whatever trim you want for 2027 — ST, Platinum, King Ranch, or any of the Active-level configurations — let us know when you reserve and we’ll do our best to get your exact build in the queue. Higher trims tend to be more allocation-limited, so reserving early matters more for those.
Will Jay Malone Ford charge extra to order or locate my Explorer?
No. We’ve never charged extra to factory-order or locate a vehicle and we’re not about to start. You pay what the window sticker says, plus applicable tax, title, and license. That’s it.
What if I want to test drive a current Explorer first?
Come on in. We have current-year Explorers on the lot, and a test drive is a great way to get a feel for the platform, seating layouts, and technology before your 2027 arrives.
Family-owned. Hutchinson-based. Built around families like yours.
We’ve watched a lot of Explorers leave our lot headed for school pickup lines, youth hockey tournaments in Willmar, baseball weekends in Waconia, and lake weekends in Kandiyohi and Meeker counties. The Explorer is a central Minnesota family classic for a reason. When your 2027 arrives, the same family and the same team that took your reservation will be the one handing you the keys.
