Why it stands out
The 2022 Ford Explorer distinguishes itself in the competitive midsize SUV market with its robust lineup of powertrains, including a turbocharged four-cylinder, a hybrid option, and a powerful twin-turbo V6, catering to a variety of performance needs. Designed on a rear-drive platform, it offers a sporty handling experience and ample towing capacity of up to 5,600 pounds, along with a class-leading safety rating of Top Safety Pick+ from the IIHS. The spacious interior comfortably accommodates families, though the third row is more suitable for children.

Overall, the Explorer’s blend of space, safety, and performance makes it an appealing choice for buyers seeking a practical family SUV.

The heated & cooling seats are fantastic. I havent tried out all of the features yet, but I am looking forward to figuring them all out. The drive is smooth and quite. Seats are comfortable, the third row fold down easily and add so much more room for a giant Sams Club or Costco run. I feel that I got a fantastic deal for the cost and the mileage on the vehicle. I was looking at the Toyota Highlander, GMC Acadia and Jeep Cherokee, but choose the Ford Explorer for all the reasons listed above.

Good value for a great car. Had enough bells and whistles to compliment the car. Nothing missing from my lists of options. Compared to Chevy Tahoe. Explorer is a better all around car and value.
