Used Ford Explorer for sale under $2,500 near me

I bought one new in 2003, 211k miles and still going. In 22 years I have had the following maintenance: 1-Alternator, 2- radiators, 2- water pumps, upper ball joint assembly on front passenger side, valve cover gaskets, 1-set of spark plugs, 2- Power module fuses, replaced head liner and the normal tires and Breakpads. Still has the Ford electrical wiring quirks; door ajar faut sensor lights which in the interior dome light will not turn off. All things considered for the amount of space and towing its a good value.

I have had 2 2004 explorers ( BOTH AWESOME! Over 220k miles each!!) And I bought a 2010 Eddie Bauer with roughly 100k. Absolutely beautiful vehicle, met all my needs (twin 8 year olds then, almost 13 year olds now) so lots of friends, lots of bags, skis, skateboards etc... I loved all of them, they all served me very very well. All were totalled by uninsured drivers in michigan. Literally. T-boned, rear ended, t- boned. And I'm about to buy another one. 2010 explorer, 111k miles. I know it will need the routine repair stuff, but I am 100% more confident in buying yet another Explorer than buying some unibody crap. I'd recommend a 2010 every day. Just pay a mechanic $100 to look it over and drive it. Every day, all day. Loved all my Explorers.

If you are in the market for a new or used vehicle highly recommend that you check out White Bear Lincoln. They have a very customer oriented staff that will make your buying experience great. They also have an amazing selection of vehicles. Check them out!

So my family had this car for around 22 years. My mom drives it mostly so it's lightly used. The engine and transmission are orginal and at 173,000 miles. I remember it has a few problems over the years but hey it runs still. At this point some of the rubber inflow of the engine had to rotted out and be replaced and the bottom has some rust from salt over over the years. Overall it's a good ride. If getting one make sure it's low mileage.

highly recommend safe and reliable choice for any car buyer. They offer a seamless, hassle-free experience that you can trust, making the car-buying process enjoyable and stress-free.

I bought my 2003 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition (gold in color)when it was 3 yrs old (2006). It had 36,000 miles on it when I got it. It was the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. I'm so glad it couldn't talk cause I could be in alot of trouble...lol It had over 300,000 miles on it when the transmission went out on it. There's no way I could complain about it...I got my money out of it & more. Then I bought a 2010 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition(white in color) My son drives it now with over 250,000 miles on it.& my husband drives a 1998 Ford Explorer that we got when we first got together.Im not sure how many miles are on it The Ford Explorer is my vehicle !!!

I have bought a car from them for my daughter. The car wouldn't accept gas Bob told me to take it to their mechanics their mechanics found some stuff that was wrong with it and Bob took care of me as I was his own family. Really really really appreciate the honesty and how they took care of me and my kids.

I got my 2006 ford explorer eddie bauer Ltd. In 2008 used. I love it. It's 2024 I has the oil changes regularly (it's tells me) which is wonderful. Yes I needed tires obviously. But the only repairs it needed since I have it was the gear shift. The front axle got changed last year. And now the rear axle needs changing and they say some pieces are rusting. Now I did have an issue with it stopping when I would go over a speed bump. So took it to a repair shop close to work. BIG mistake. First they said it was a silinod (spelled wrong) Replaced Then they said it was the fuel tank. Replaced Then they said take it to Ford. They didn't know but gave me a list of things that will need done eventually. Spare plugs, etc. Finally after a month I got angry and took it up to Trump motors (repair shop) where my dad deals. And it ends up that in my ford explorer I have a emergency shut off. So on the passenger side front panel area. There is a pump button. If it happens just wait 2 minutes give it 2 or 3 pumps and start it up. They did/showed me that for free. So expensive lesson. But I absolutely love my Ford explorer. Wish I could keep it forever. But I realize it is older and now rear axle and rusted pieces, driver leather seat needs replaced and liner coming down. So I'm thinking I need to update. Hoping to get something similar. Oh yeah I'm also 5'2" and love sitting high and seeing everything.

Sent my daughter Amanda here Tony was excellent walk her through everything and she has low payments and a safe ride thank you Tony see you soon

This Explorer rides smooth at any speed, low miles for an 2010 and a good engine/mechanics. Shows wear in some areas but overall a solid vehicle.

Great experience. Timely communication by Terry regarding a visit to see cars of interest, and great responses by him to my questions during our inspection of the 2023 Chrysler pacifica during my visit. Carl

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.

have owned this car for 20+ years now and its by far the most reliable for my family out of all cars ive owned. Its a very low maintenance car, hasn't needed a major fix once ever.

2024: Owned the Explorer for 21 years now still going strong, 235,000 kms, original paint job, some rust is just starting to peek out in a few scant places, but overall it's in very good shape. Third set of new tires just went on last year, so have to keep it for a few more years. Been coast to coast in Canada with it. Tows my 18 foot sailboat 2000 lbs just fine, my dump trailer and power boat. Lots of room inside, have filled it 110% moving our kids and all their gear to university, also has two hidden floor storage spaces for safety gear and stowing stuff like different ball size tow hitches. Owned it twice as long as my Dodge Caravan. Love the 4 wheel drive in winter and at the boat launches, never ever used winter tires on it, and we get piles of snow up here.

Everyone is helpful, friendly, and professional. Matt in service is always great to work with, is knowledgeable, attentive, and supportive!! Service has state of the art technology. I highly recommend!!

My first new vehicle. I still use it as my spare and my son uses it too for work. It has 368,000 miles and I have only had to replace the alternator and the thermostat (cracked) plus, all the normal militance. It still runs smooth like it was new.

Everyone at the dealership was great to deal with. The technician who took me to look at the vehicle was very professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. He also gave me great advice on what to do with the vehicle in terms of restoration work that would save me money and time in the long run, while still making sure I would get the best work done on the vehicle. Great experience!

used 1 owner 2000 explorer 4x4 small parts needed replacement or soldering chips on circuit board for upper dash, shift solenoids. easy to fix parts, some parts no longer being made but plenty of part out vehicles to choose from. if you work on your vehicles and want a budget friendly vehicle I'd recommend this one as it will work for all weather conditions and a good family rig.

As usual, Ron Clark and his service crew provide the BEST service. It's always a pleasure to catch up with Ron who is always like talking to a good friend. The service performed is always spot on and done in a timely manner.

I have the 2005 Ford Explorer XLT Eddie Bauer v8 model and it’s crazy it’s a super nice car I have a drop on it with 27 inch rims and off road tires and it looks super clean it’s a lowered wide body explorer my dad bought it back in 2011 as a family car but now has handed it down to me at 16yrs old it’s a super clean truck I love it and it’s really fast for an suv especially because of the v8 with 4wd launch times

This car was gorgeous, royal blue. It exceeded every expectation i had as far as style and comfort are concerned. We have a big family so the third row was convenient and folded so nicely when unneeded. Sunroof and moonroof. Heated and cooled seats. Heated steering wheel. It costed entirely too much in gas and had a lot of computer glitches (in display screen not performance). Transmission acted a little funny one day so I decided to upgrade. Granted It was a 2013 not brand new, but if Ford isn’t built to last more than 8 years, I’m moving on.

I bought 2011 Honda Pilot EX in 2016 from East Coast Auto Source. It had bullet holes in the body and some shot out windows. I repaired the bullet holes, and had the other repairs completed. Car ran well and it needed some other work. Nine years later, we have 211,000 more miles on the Pilot. It was a good price and East Coast Auto Source was upfront and honest about the repairs and had the car shipped to my mechanic. I would bought another car in 2024 from them and I am happy with the deal.

The Vehicle is everrhing we looked for. Not to excitwd about beimg a white car but overall there are no words to express my satisfaction with our car and especially Cars dot com!

Very nice car and friendly service Xxxxxx cccccc aaa bbb ddd gf gg hh kkk

I bought it used and have been really happy with it. I am anxious to see how it performs in the winter since it is that time of the year.

Absolutely the best! The service and professionalism was great. Everything was clear cut and simple like I like it. They are solution oriented. I recommend everyone to Import Exchange.

Great car I fold back set down and fit bed in back great to shag the misses and sister. I love mine bc it has tinted windows so I can fit heaps of little kids in the back the Sell them on the dark web.

I owned this car for 13 years, and I never had to take it in for any issues. Superior comfort. Reliable. Large trunk with maximum space for moving large furniture.

It was only an oil change but I was in and out, handed my keys with a smile and then I got in my car and drove away ?

My Explorer was left to me in my friends will I knew the truck for a few years before inheriting it and except for 1 thing have had NO problems with it other than normal maintenance and I LOVE this truck and have no intention of getting rid of it unless I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO... and then I would still be hesitant about it ! It's always started and drove excellent especially in snow !!! My truck has 90600 miles it was given to me at 75000 miles ... only negative is that before I got it my friend needed to replace the transmission due to losing reverse (literally out of nowhere) WE were both stunned about it .... I wish I could check the transmission fluid by a dipstick too !

Great experience with Varfe. Will recommend someone to come and work with this guy!! Great work

I own a 1998 Explorer 4dr with the pushrod 4.0L V6. she currently sits at 245k miles and i plan on restoring it and driving it everywhere. its seen me at highs and lows. it runs like crap but gets me from A to B. These second gen explorers don't have quitting in their vocabulary. I love my explorer and plan on driving it while i can.
