Love my new Explorer Limited

by Not my first Ford from Chicago on Wed Apr 16 2014

Great ride for an SUV! Roomy interior in both first and second row seats!! i love the clean lines of the interior - easy to clean. Gas mileage is as reported so far. the Limited model with the 302A package gives you plenty of options and comfort. The voice control of the Climate, Radio, Navigation, Phone is great feature (once you get use to it)!

Best SUV I ever owned

by Halford from Los Angeles, CA on Mon Aug 10 2015

Wow of all Wow's! Powerful engine, all the electronic features are champ in the league! I bought it and drove it and it runs smoothly that I wasn't aware that I was speeding. The cruise control helps me from getting a ticket! It sped up on hilly interstate where I live! my friends rode with me, commended how wonderful the ride was. I wake up in the morning looking forward driving my Explorer "Whitey".

Best 4x4 Beach Vehicle EVER

by Beach Goer from New Jersey on Tue Sep 23 2014

I just ran my 2014 Explorer all over the beach at the Outer Banks for 2 weeks (100+ miles on the sand). I have made many trips there in the past in 2 Jeeps and a Durango. It is by far the best vehicle I ever have driven on the beach. Deep sand, ruts, no issue, it goes where you point it and doesn't bang your head on the roof. I'll take technology now, you keep the truck format of my previous 4x4's.

2014 Ford EXplorer EXT - New

by beau1943 from Indiana on Sat Aug 30 2014

This automobile is top of the the line. Beautiful exterior design. The interior is excellent but I don't like how the seats are laid back or down. The leather interior appearance is also beautiful. The engine runs quietly and excellent performance and power for a V6. The gas mileage is satisfactory on the road. Presently getting average of 21 miles per gallon road and city driving.

Lasting Reliability

by Ford buyer from Sparks, NV on Sat Feb 22 2014

Our 2007 Explorer was one of the best vehicles we've owned. We are planning on the new 2014 being even better. Our experience with Explorers is that they are a long lasting reliable performance SUV. We are looking forward to this continuing to hold true.

Totally impressed!!

by Ms Tate from Oakland, CA on Sun Dec 21 2014

I have rented two Ford Explorers in the past two years to drive them across country to relocate my daughter; the year was 2011 and we were able to rent a 2012. Then on our second trip we were in a 2014. I was sold on the Explorer after such a comfy ride, great gas mileage on the road. LOVE IT!!

Generally an excellant car

by ernst from Frederick, MD on Mon Aug 19 2013

This is fully loaded limited model. I really have fun with it. Don't bother will the cross bar unless absolutely necessary as they produce much noise that can't be abated. Also the explorer has little space for storing things like pungy cords, flares, etc. there is sufficient storage in front for personal items. Over all a fun car and rides fairly smooth.

Solid Vehicle

by Not a Ford Buyer from Chicago, IL on Mon Nov 18 2013

I bought the XLT version of the 2014 Explorer and the vehicle exceeded my expectations. The handling and braking along with the safety features won me over. The styling of the vehicle in my opinion is better than any of the competitors. I never bought a Ford before but I must say this one won me over.

GREAT SUV FOR THE PRICE

by FORDUSER from Levittown PA on Sun Sep 18 2016

Fords have always been in my family and my Explorer has performed up to all my expectations! Besides my Explorer performance and good looks. I do have to say I am little disappointed on the Gas Tank. 18 gallon tank is not ideal and I have to fill up more frequently but the i love my car.

Completely satisfied

by Grandma from Gainesville, FL on Fri Sep 12 2014

We were in the market for a car that could pull a camper plus bicycles and had room for all the other items needed for camping. The Ford Explorer had the tow package we wanted and size we needed. Called and told Ron Hinson what we wanted down to the color we wanted and he produced it. Very satisfied that he did not argue about it nor try to sell us anything else. Very satisfied.
