Personally I would never get an Explorer its just a soccer mom car and would handle terribly compared to a BMW. We have leased many as business vehicles and while initial quality is great, after the warrenty is over everything that can go wrong does and this has happened on 4 f150s. We got tired of it and just bought a tundra couldn't be happier.
Only thing this has on our cars is tech since we have an ageing platform however I would much rather buy a CPO x5 over a new explorer.

My GF ended up going with the BMW X3 35i instead of the Ford Explorer Sport. It was mainly due to dimensions. She currently drives a Honda Civic Hybrid (manual) and a Explorer is a huge change in type of vehicle.
However, an Explorer Sport handles really well for a vehicle its size and price range.
As for quality, the Ford Explorer Sport is a severe duty fleet vehicle. It probably gets pushed harder than most BMWs everyday as a police vehicle. This definitely has its advantages as it's put through more real world testing than most other SUVs.
