2018 Ford Explorer Limited review
Highly recommend buying a used 2018 Explorer
This is my fourth Explorer. I decided in 2018 to order the top-of-the-line Platinum. This vehicle has all the bells and whistles for a person that wants the luxury of one of Fords top models. It has Platinum leather seats that are very comfortable. If you can find today, buy it. It has the 3.5L V6 that has great power on acceleration. You can only buy a V6 now on the 2025 Explorer ST which is a 3.0L. The cost is around $60,000 Loaded.

Auto Advantage by Discovery Auto Group review
10/10
Just bought a car with Taylor’s help, I’ve bought cars all over the east coast in the last twenty years or so and this was the easiest process yet. Everyone knows buying a car takes some time but this was the quickest and smoothest experience I’ve had. Highly recommend this dealership and all of the staff!
2018 Ford Explorer Limited review
3rd row seat folding mechanism
Love this car overall but I have only one complaint. I was putting some boxes in the rear of the car and one of the boxes must have touched the the rear seat folding mechanism as all of a sudden it tried to unfold the seats. If my grandchildren had been sitting there strapped in I hate to think what may have happened!! Wish you had coverage over the mechanism so this wouldn’t happen.

Ken Wilson Ford review
I had a fantastic experience purchasing my Bronco from
I had a fantastic experience purchasing my Bronco from Ken Wilson Ford! The entire process was smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. I especially want to thank Jody Bell, my sales associate, who made everything even better. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect vehicle. I truly appreciated his professionalism and friendly attitude throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend both Ken Wilson Ford and Jody Bell!
2018 Ford Explorer PLATINUM review
My dream car
This is my 4th Ford Explorer over the last 20 years and I am very happy. Every time I upgrade is nicer in every aspect. I am glad that after so many people telling me to just go to another style and company, I made the right decision.
