Very quiet and sound car

I love how quiet the Explorer is inside and keeps out all road noise and you can easily carry on a conversation from front to back The color is amazing and fits all our needs now with the third seat option. We are looking forward to many trips and adventures in the future.

Lookin good in my new ride

I have only had my new Explorer Sport for 2 weeks, but it's fantastic! It rides much smoother and is more technologically advanced than the Highlander I test drove. So far so good...I love everything about it!

Pleasantly Surprised

As with any new or slightly used vehicle purchase, there are lots of pros and cons. Pros Love the overall looks of it Nice solid handling Very quiet ride, engine noise and road noise very minimal Great quality and assemblage of the interior Nice sharp dash screen for backup camera and navigation etc Love all the technology! Electronic push-button for folding down the rear seat, giving much more room for storage Excellent traction and stability on wet roads Cons It’s a typical SUV gas guzzler The front seats are seemingly too small for the large space they occupy. There’s lots of arm and shoulder space but you better have a small behind to get it all onto the small seat. Weird, there’s plenty of room to design a larger seat but Ford, obviously, skimped on the size and contouring of the 2 front seats. It has a traditional, antiquated analog speed- ometer. Seriously Ford? You manufacture a high-tech quality SUV and put a round dial front and center for speed? Why not digital?

Very reliable and roomy

Plenty storage room; navigation features make traveling much easier than watching map; phone sync, backup sensors, heated seats, keyless entry,; not having to lift tailgate

Extremely happy with this purchase

This vehicle has everything I need and has met all my expectations on performance. Color and styling were also important factors in my choice and this vehicle has both.

It's a great, safe family car

We like that it has 3 rows of seats so that friends and family can come along on trips easily. Also, I like the safety ratings it gets.
