Best Explorer
I have had this car for about two years, the V8 version. It is one of the best cars I've ever had. It has tons of space and is really reliable I wouldn't hesitate taking it anywhere. Haven't had to do anything major only routine oil changes and such. The explorer won't be the best on gas but if you're looking for something dependable this one is it.

This is the place
I purchased a Mercedes S550 2008. This is the best old used vehicle I've ever purchased. It's been 2 weeks now .I took it to Firestone to run full inspection. It passed with flying colors. Tom the owner and I could tell you from my own experience only is an honest, friendly, patient gentleman. I recommend his business. Thank you Tom,I wish you the best. Sincerely Sammy Anabtawi.
Great for traveling and well worth buying
Bought her used she's a 2008.Yes I call all my trucks her lol. Only complaint I have is city driving because of mileage. She's been as far south as N.C and Georgia and north to N.H.. Great ride loads of room with the third seat. As far as maintenance normal oil changes, tires, tune ups. I'm in MA so even in the winter she starts up and goes VERY well in the snow. this is my second explorer if I ever replace her I'll buy another one.

Excellent customer service, nice and honest people… got the car i’ve wanted at the right price… can’t beat that!
Both a classy ride and a workhorse.
This car is easy to drive, great visibility and comfort, but also a workhorse for towing and hauling with a large cargo capacity. I've had three now.

Jay in finance was very helpful!
Jeffia is a great sales professional. She is thorough and knowledgeable in all aspects of our purchase. She is very kind and personable and made the process very easy. We will definitely recommend JoeMaus Ford to our family.
Great size for a family
I use this car for both a work vehicle and shorter trips as this is our alternate car. I like being able to pull small trailer s and being able to haul smaller project building materials. Tons of room for family trips.

Exceptional abundance of vehicles, i purchased both a work and person car here over the last 6 months and they have truly been awesome for me
Great SUV for the price
This is our 2nd Ford Explorer, Eddie Bauer edition we've owned. Great SUV with all the bells and whistles of a Jeep Cherokee for 1/2 the price. I recommend at least test driving and see what a safe, fun vehicle it is.
