Dang thing still running great. Being a sport,rides like the truck that it is. Tough, dependable and cheap. Love Clara, best beat up old truck I've ever had.

Very reliable and comfortable

This car met all my needs. It was comfortable and mostly reliable. Large enough for my 3 large dogs to travel comfortable on long rides.

Sturdy, Reliable, and Comfortable

This was my first car I bought and absolutely love it. Large cargo space and comfortable seating for five. Completely reliable and was able to comfortably haul art supplies back and forth. Perfect for animal lovers and families.

A reliable work horse of a suv

Not the prettiest car I've owned but definitely the most reliable. I used it to commute to work which meant I would sometimes drive over 400 miles in a week. I also trusted it to take my daughters to wherever they needed or wanted to go such as school, appts, rehearsals, outings , road trips etc....

Best Car I Ever Owned

Comfortable, stylish, affordable. 17 years & 263000 miles without any major mechanical issues. Easy to drive, lots of room but not a big footprint. Towed like a big truck & handled like a high end vehicle. Careless driver ended her. I am now shopping for a newer version of her.

this car lasted longer than it should have.

I learned to drive in this vehicle and even drove it up to washington state then back down to colorado. best vehicle ive ever owned. very reliable crushed me to let it go but i was able to get at least 200,000 miles on it and still kept going without any under the hood work.

Most dependable car I have ever owned or seen

My 1999 ford Explorer has seen over 160000 miles and feels brand new. I have had absolutely no maintenance done to the car other than a radio that i broke. I still use it everyday and I love it.
