NICE RIDING CAR

CAR IS NICE, BUT VERY SMALL INTERIOR STORAGE, LEG ROOM ON DRIVERS SIDE IS AWKWARD. SORT OF FORCES YOUR LEFT LEG AT A ANGLE. VERY QUIET INSIDE. GREAT SOUND SYSTEM. GIVES YOU A VERY GOOD RIDE. USB PORTS ARE HARD TO GET INTO. SETTLES ARE HARD TO REACH. INSTRUMENT PANEL VERY EASY TO READ

Good Vehicle, Very Spacious

Have had the new Ford Explorer for about 6 weeks now. Very spacious, good cargo area and legroom, I should have spent more time at the dealer learning the Ford Sync My Ride system. My vehicle has the large touchscreen console with Navigation. Trying to figure out Bluetooth system for the MP3 player on my phone and voice command systems. Very happy with the truck, ride is good, very comfortable seats and interior trim is nice quality. Quiet ride. Acceleration is OK, but would be better with the V8 engine.

EXCELLENT SUV AND VERY COMFORTABLE

It is an excellent SUV....I exchanged my 2010 Mercedes GL450 for a 2015 Explorer XLT.....of course, you get accustomed to luxury (such as folding mirrors, especially at garage entrance, electronic steering wheel, seat positioning, etc.)....but besides that, it has all the luxury of a "luxury SUV"....5 ot of 5

great car

outstanding vehicle, does everything i need it to do. I would definitely recommend this car. I love the interior layout and the driving experience. Excellent performance on steep mountain roads in my area. The manual mode on the transmission is especially helpful in the area we live in.

My 2015 Ford Explorer

I LOVE it! The only criticism I have, is you can not order it with retracting running boards like the 150 Limited Truck (my husband owns one). I am short and running boards are a neccessity. The retracting ones are so wonderful, but I was able to have stationary ones installed at an independent retailer.

too soon to tell

I haven't had it long enough to really give you an answer. If it means anything to you, I am a retired master auto tech. and I chose the Explorer.
