Used Ford Explorer for sale in Columbus, TX

I was in the auto industry for 7 years and this is the only place I will buy a Ford. They don't play games and everything is above board. If you are in the market and you don't give this dealership a shot you are probably going to cost yourself thousands of dollars. My salesman Curtis was really professional. Eric the Sales Director worked quickly to get me in and out. Marco did an excellent job explaining all my warranty options. Chancy the GM even called the Ford representative when my vehicle was delayed at the rail yard. What more could you ask for. Thank you guys!

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.

Jon Woods in Parts is great to work with. He helps you find the part you need and make sure you get the correct part.

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.

Curtis Markland is an outstanding, upfront representative of Ryan Ford who made buying a car simply stress free. Over phone calls and text message, he worked a great price for a new car. When I left financing at Ryan Ford, I was in shock. There were no surprises. No add-one that I did not want. No strange math which raises my out the door cost. All I can say is thank you to Curtis and Ryan Ford to being honest and consistent with me, the buyer. If you want a zero hassle car purchase, go to Ryan Ford and ask for Curtis.

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 .

Want to thank Jon Woods for his professional advice and taking care of all our questions. Your advice saved us many headaches dealing with our vehicles issues. Thank you so much.

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.

After a few bad experiences car shopping in Houston we decided to look for a small town dealership. Ryan Ford in Sealy did not disappoint. Gregory James was awesome to work with. No fast talking, no high pressure. He answered all of our questions, got us our trade in value quickly, and gave us time to make our decision without making us feel rushed. Ryan Ford had a great selection of new and used cars. They also did everything they could to get us into the car we wanted. It was actually an exciting car buying experience. They were also fast, we weren't stuck at the dealership all day. Everyone we met was friendly. We will definitely return to Ryan Ford for our future car purchases.

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.

We were traveling through Texas from Florida when our truck started to have some problems. Cavender Dodge worked us into their busy schedule and made the repairs on our truck that it needed. We were back on the road that afternoon! They had the truck part in stock! The service writer’s and mechanics were great! That really meant a lot to us because were were so far from home.

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.

Great place to buy a car.....well worth the drive!! After several Houston dealers tried to overcharge us for the car we were looking for, we decided to make the drive out to Cavender Ford in Columbus....like I said...well worth it!! Fair price, great selection, and nice people.

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.

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!

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

I was having problems with my battery on my 2017 GMC Sierra. It was late in the afternoon and looking like I might have to wait 2 days until after the weekend was over to have my truck checked to make sure what the problem was. I had chemo coming up in Houston, so I was concerned about getting home. However, the service manager got me in and back out in a matter of maybe an hour and a half. Thanks guys and gals!

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 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.

Awesome ride. Plenty of legroom. Best SUV I have ever had. The captains seats in the middle row make accessing the rear seats easy. Seats are very comfortable

The sales force was very friendly and knowledgeable of their product. The experience of ordering a vehicle was really easy.

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.

service was great. only problem was that they didnt have my battery in stock and had to keep my car over night.

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.

I can't say enough about the service I just received from Ryan Ford! From the sales rep Greg, to Randy in the finance department all the way through to the manager Ryan. Thank you for the wonderful experience. These are guys you can trust!

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!!

It has been a very good car except a couple of times I have had a very hard time turning & now there is a popping in the front when turning the wheel especially backing up. I called Ford & they told me if I live on a dirt road that year is notorius for getting dirt up in the suspension. They said they could change it out & charge me several hundred dollars & I would be right back in next year with the same problem. However I am kinda worried about this & hauling my grandchildren & others around. I asked if they had that much problem why are they not recalled with a new part that doesn't do that??
