The performance of the car is very good. Has good
power and the handling is good,m even off-road. My
car has a black paint job with gray leather interior and
looks really nice. Maintenance is not too bad, but the
battery dies easily especially if you leave a light on for
an hour or so.

Pros — Good V-8 Power
Cons — Battery needs replacing often

The Explorer is one of the best-selling SUVs for a reason! They are built Ford Tough and can handle everything, not to mention a luxurious ride. If you buy one used, they can be very cheap. Gas can be a pain, but overall, I love this truck! Great choice for an SUV

Pros — Exterior, Interior
Cons — Gas, Exterior

v6 is nice and it has great pick up. Right wheel bearing had to be replaced and so did the ac, twice. but for its size it doesnt do to bad on gas and the handling isn't bad either. and it has seven seats! its got a good deal of miles on it, (a little over 90,000) but still runs well

Pros — big!
Cons — Its a ford. its on its third ac, and the back right window doesn't work

Gas millage isn't really that bad and the tank holds a great deal, so I don't complain! Great for vacations and long distance driving!

Its an Suv, but the gas millage is pretty good, just not the best. The tank can hold more than most though! The vehicle is spacious, roomy, and the best for vactions and travel!

A very well riding vehicle. I thought it would be tight with the 4x4 but it is a very smooth ride.

Pros — Looks and Runs great.
Cons — The ball mount is only 1 and 1/4 inches. Would like to have a 2 inch ball mount in the back.
