1993 Ford Explorer Reviews, Pricing & Specs

My Beast has been a good work SUV it is a 1993 and except for a few minor things that didn't cost me much to fix it is an awesome vehicle. Don't know how this years Explorer's have been rated but I rate The Beast EXCELLENT

i have owned the truck for 2 years and have found it to be comfortable and reliable

I loved this truck, solid off road and in the snow. plus the gas mileage was great for an suv with about 20 mpg average. I had 212,000 miles on this vehicle before i sold it and never had a problem with it, ford really knows how to build trucks and i can careless what anybody says about ford, i think their vehicles are unstoppable.

It may have a lower MPG rating than that of a sedan, but on the highway or in town it gets an amazing amount of gas for the mileage.

Not meant to last. Engineered from a car chasis. Consequently, ride is preferred over off-road performance. It's really just a big grocery getter. Not bad for caryying a lot of friends. Mine was dark teal, introducing me to my favorite color. Tha Limited options were satisfactory, but nothing special.

Most bullet proof rig ever.. 200,000+ miles on the original, factory transmission and motor. Never had anything major go wrong. Most extensive stuff i have done is a transfer case, starter, spark plugs, and alternator. The 4X4 is almost unstoppable, I have never gotten stuck in any terrain, and that includes going to work in January of '09 with that 70+ inches of snow on the ground.. The Explorer plowed right through it all the way up Sunset Hill and down Geiger Rd. If you have a 1st generation Ford Explorer (1991-1994), the only things you will have to worry about is changing the fluids and brakes. The brakes wear rather quick on these is the only downfall.. But just don't ride your brakes like a Grandma and you won't have that problem to frequently!! The 4.0 Cologne V6 motor still has a lot of balls left for having 200,000 miles on it. Once the motor goes out (if it does) ill be rebuilding it to go another several 100,000 miles!!

I like that is has plenty of space and is comfortable. It is very nice with a 6 cylinder engine. Only thing is the fuel enconomy. It gets 15 city 18 hwy. Not bad for an old car like that!

this model is a 4 liter and it is good on fuel economy has enough power for any task without being a v8.the explorer is built ford tough and they mean it. it will take a lot of punishment and still drive smooth.since owning this vehicle the repairs have been minor except the water pump and replacing the fuel tank which means dropping the fuel cell(tank).the water pump requires removal of the radiator which isnt all that difficult just time consuming. the only thing i dont like about ford is that you require special tools for automatic 4 wheel hub removal.FORD ROCKS,CHEVY WALKS!!!!!!!

Good looking but a piece of crap from the beginning. Always breaking down, horrible gas mileage, a pain to fix. Was not worth the money paid for it. Great to beat on and destroy though. Almost blew it up on accident and holds a lot of people.

Nice riding truck looked great, Tons of cargo space when you folded down the backseats just loved the overall look and sportyness of the 2 door backed up with the 5 speed manual tranny, The only downside to the truck was a design flaw with the 5 speed tranny that caused the demise of the transmission from leakin fluid while driving,, but not when parked.......
