2017 Ford Explorer consumer reviews

The vehicle meets all my needs. Had a RAV4 and wanted a bigger SUV. An Expedition was too big. You might need to go to class to use some of the Navigation interaction, but what I know how to use works great.

A am really a car guy, but got this for my wife mainly. All the other SUV we drove (Santa Fe, Murano, X5, MDX, Infinity FX) seem to be the same as the Ford. Don't care for all the technology in vehicles these days. More technology in car makes drivers worse not better. Smarter drivers not smarter cars, but that's not the objective

So far, it has surpassed the expectations. The roomies vehicle and the four wheel drive is excellent. Stability upon sudden breaking is fabulous. I would recommend this to all older folks. I am 83 and just loving the performance.

This was a beautiful XLT that was fully loaded. However, the back captain's chairs didn't have arm resets or power outlets for the kids.

I like the Explorer because it gives me head room to leave my hat on while I drive. It can accommodate 7 passengers, but the rear can also fold down for hauling things. The new navigation system and screen is very well done. The only dislike at this moment is that it honks twice if you step out of the vehicle with the engine running and the key in your pocket (keyless start). It is not a subtle honk; it is a full-sounded honk - twice. In Wisconsin, we are in and out of the vehicle while the engine is running all of the time due to the cold temperatures.

I love how comfortable is feels to ride in. The extra seat capacity is great! The vehicle feels very safe.

I absolutely love this vehicle it?s so amazing in the snow and just in general a nice smooth ride and everything included with it is just superb I?ve driven Dodge and even Toyota. Ford is by far my favorite car company.

Better technology, electric back seats, and back door, smooth ride, zippy engine. The new Lexus GX doesn't even compare (the GX was my backup option). The back door of the Lexus opens the wrong way and no electric.

Plenty of power and looks with the sports package and twin turbos! Drives very nice and appreciate all the features

Great value for the money.We got a Platinum and has everything.Looks great drives great.Great acceleration.The stereo is probably the best I've heard in a production car,and I have had Lexus ,Infiniti,Mercedes Porsche .
