Used Ford Explorer for sale in Brainerd, MN

My husband and I came in a half hour before closing to test drive a beautiful 2018 Impala that just came in. We worked with Reese who was very polite, personable and not a pushy salesperson. That is my favorite type of salesperson. We ended up coming in the next day to purchase the vehicle. We buy all of our home and work vehicles from the Mills dealerships in Brainerd/Baxter. We have always had great service no matter which Mills we go to.

We’re sold on always purchasing the Ford Explorer XLT. This is our third Explorer. Satisfied with the most recent latest purchase. We’re having fun learning it’s features.

This was my first time buying a car and they made it so easy. I felt super comfortable with them and they eased my anxiety with purchasing a newer car. These guys are great!!

Bought the Explorer about 18 months ago. So far we have put 20,000 miles on it. No problems at all. The 2.3 eco boost engine is plenty powerful and the gas mileage is exceptional. We usually get between 26 and 28 mpg. Love the factory tow package, the heated seats, the heated steering wheel (you don’t know what you are missing if you have never had it), & the Apple car play is great for navigation using our IPhones .

I had the best experience from start to finish purchasing my Ford Flex. They were able to work with me in Hibbing 2 hours away to get me the vehicle I wanted. The entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They gave me a beautiful send-off with my new-to- me vehicle. I would definitely shop here for my next vehicle.

I have owned 7 Ford cars a pickups and wouldn’t own any other brand. I have bought 5 from this dealership and they have been great.

I think there a good respected business they do a quick and thorough job I would recommend them to all of my friends and family

I have heard a thump in the front end since I've had it and don't understand why this is happening 2017 Ford Exspoler XLT every time I turn my car to the left is there any recalls about this issue? William Wilson.

I was extremely please with the service Mills gave us from the time we walked in to the moment we left the lot. Extremely helpful and professional all the way around. A very good experience for us and we will definately be going back when that time comes again for another purchase.

I have been a Ford driver for very many years and have owned Mustang GTs to F-250s.I love the styling, drive, comfort and power. I'm most impressed with the comfort when towing my boat. We live half the year in Coastal North Carolina and half is SW Florida, so our boat commutes between the two. Switching from an F-150 to the Explorer I was concerned, but the Explorer handled the job without any problem.

Chuck Cole is very knowledgeable and easy to work with, the whole team was professional.

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.

I was more than happy and pleased with the exceptional service provided at Mills Buick GMC. They offered their time to show me several vehicles and I didn’t feel pressured at all. The financial experience was also not stressful. Thanks to Brandon for helping me choose my new 4Runner!

I like it. It does well. The front seats aren't very comfortable. The gas mileage is a little weak. The V6 isn't really enough for this size vehicle. Lots of interior room.

every person I worked with to get my car was awesome and took the time to answer questions.

Probably the best SUV my wife and I have owned and we’ve had many different makes and models since 1992. The styling must be good because a lot of other SUV’s are copying it.

The vehicle meets al my family needs. The vehicle was within my budget. The vehicle was well maintained. The interior was we’ll kept. Love it !

I’ve never had such a good experience at a dealership before. Brandon was my salesperson and he was absolutely exceptional! I was greeted with friendly people and had a great time, how many dealerships can you say that about?

Love the inside room, 3rd row seat and the fact that the 2nd and 3rd row can be collapsed. Love the rear camera and all of the functions of being able to bring my phone apps up on the screen. So good for our very busy, on the go lifestyle

Car, Ride is very nice, plenty of room, plenty of the things we like owned a 2015 limited / purchased a 2017 limited great improvements ride and comfort. Reliable car regardless of the outside invironment Very Happy!

I was in the market to trade in my Highlander for a new one late last year. It was a pleasure working with Dan! Even though it was a several week wait, we kept in touch via text and I was always updated on ETA. When the car came in he made it really easy to complete the transaction. It was really fun to work with somebody who was so knowledgeable about the options on the car and the set up. Thanks, Dan, for making the process fun and easy!

This car is way above what I expected. Has plenty of room if my grandchildren come to visit me. It came with tinted windows which saved me from having it done.

This is my 3rd Explorer. Very reliable, handles great, in all weather, roomy, even when packed for vacation or taking our german shepherds for a ride.

I reluctantly traded in my 2013 Taurus for a Ford Edge in 2017. I considered this a downgrade in comfort and luxury. I had decided not to go with the Explorer at that time because of the lower fuel economy. When the 2020 Explorer XLT came out, it had a highway rating of 28 MPG which was the same rating I was getting from the Ford Edge. My Ford Taurus always surprised me with its excellent fuel economy. I could get 32 MPG easily on long drives. The Edge would give me 26 MPG on the highway and about 18 MPG around town. The 2020 Explorer is so much more comfortable than the Edge. The kids love sitting in their own chairs. They have plenty of space and when they start getting on each other's nerves or my wife's, they can easily split up with one of them sitting in the last row. I have managed better than 30 MPG on long trips with the Explorer. My average driving comes in at 25 MPG. I have had no mechanical problems with the Explorer what-so-ever. I now have 20,000 miles on it. I got the towing package which has really turned out to be useful. I use it to carry bikes with a hitch carrier. I have rented a U-Haul traller on several occasions instead of renting a pick-up truck. It is only $20 per day to rent a tailor. I really enjoy the Android Auto feature. The major complaint that I read on the Ford Explorer is that they claim that the shifting is not smooth or that the car is noisy. I find that the car rides very nicely and is very quiet when you are on the road. The 10-speed transmission is obviously going to be doing lots of shifting to get you up to speed. That is a lot of gears. Those gears are the reason i am getting over 30 MPG on a large 7 passenger SUV. I don't mind a bit of busy shifting in order to save fuel. I know that the KIA Telluride is very highly regarded in this category. The Telluride advertises 21 MPG overall. I am very happy to get the mileage I am getting now. I also got a pretty good discount from Ford when I bought the Explorer. I believe that the Ford Explorer is an ideal vehicle for families. Fuel Economy is unbelievable for a vehicle this size with so much power. I always put Explore in the Economy mode when I drive. I can feel the power drop when I put it in this mode. In the normal mode, I get about 26 MPG on the highway but in the Economy mode, I get 30 and better.

I swore all of my life I would never buy a Ford. Once I brought my F150 Harley, I loved it. Which made me eager to but this Explorer for my wife and daughter. We are now a FORD FAMILY.

Love this place! Will never buy from any other dealer again. Everyone at Kimbercreek Ford Pine River,Minnesota was so nice! Great experience from start to finish. We highly recommend them to everyone who is looking for a vehicle!!!

I had a really great experience and drove away the same day with car I wanted. These guys really do everything they can to make the experience stress free and relaxing.

Purchased a new 2021 F150 and the Team at Kimber Creek did a great job. If you looking for personal service and less corporate feel, this is the best Ford dealer.

I’m absolutely in love with my 2018 Ford Explorer XLT! It’s exterior appearance is eye catching and the inside is so nice. Lots of room and meets all the needs for me and my family!

They checked my trailer light hookup after the oil change as I asked. I didn't clearly communicate this when I made the appointment. I had blown a fuss when rewiring my trailer before this day. Thanks for going the extra mile!

i have purchased cars from Fairmont Ford and Gregg Smitherman. I am pleased with the service and knowledge. I like the fact that when we go into the dealership they know who we are and are always willing to help.

Kimber Creek did a great job in all phases of my purchase of a 2021 Explorer. Betty made the sales process easy to understand and she had a great knowledge of the vehicle. I upgraded from a 2014 Explorer to the 2021 . The 2021 is a high quality upgrade from the 2021. The comparable features have been refined and the new features are great. Greg and Marya were instrumental in making this a great experience. All this is backed by the high quality service at Kimber Creek

So far I like the vehicle. Bought it used and have only had it a few days. Love the extra space and easy design. I’ve test driven 4 different used explorers and noticed that the paint chips easily and there always seems to be a hint of rust. That’s crazy to me for only being 4 years old. This has been an issue on each of the 4 used vehicles. I’ve owned a VW, Toyota and Kia each for more than 4 years and never experience paint chips or rust. Kind of odd.

It is stylish and comfortable and gets great gas mileage. I have room for anything and everything I would want to carry. Have t missed out on anything!!
