Default Road Test Ecosport, Escape, Everest, Explorer.

"I’m on the island of Luzon, in the Philippines. Luzon is the largest of the 7641 islands that form the archipelago that make up the Philippines. *It’s also the most populous, with some 53 million people calling the island home. No wonder then, the 90km bus ride from the capital Manila to our final destination, the Clark Air Base, a military facility home*to both the Philippines Air Force and the United States Air Force, is taking so long.
So why am I heading to US Air Force base in the Philippines? It’s not to test the latest military hardware, that’s for sure. No, I am here to test some hardware of a different type, one more to CarAdvice readers’ tastes.
Over the next few days will be exploring the Luzon countryside in four Ford SUVs:*the Everest, Explorer, Escape (Kuga) and EcoSport.
Think you know peak hour traffic? Thing again. With a population of around 13 million people, Manila’s roads are a busy*place to be. After landing in the nation’s capital, we need to make the 90km trek to our base, but we are going nowhere. And it’s hot.
This is the first time I’ve been to the Philippines and when I was invited by Ford to share this experience with a bunch of other journalists, I knew it would be unlike anything I’ve done before.....'"

Exploder and EcoSport out of the bunch. Wonder if there's a way to turn a current gen 3.5 EcoBoost Exploder into RHD. Looked high and low and can't find anyone who does it.
