Longevity and reliability

This past month, September, 2016 we took this vehicle across country and spent two weeks in Wyoming. Despite its 14 year age and 371,000 miles it performed flawlessly. Mountains, steep grades, 80 mph speeds for hours on end, and hundreds of miles of dirt roads and "two tracks" were never a problem. This has been our experience with this vehicle over the years during extended road trips in each of the United States and most of the Eastern Canadian provinces. It is simply the best vehicle we have ever owned.

2002 Explorer

I LOVE my Explorer and am happy every time I drive it. I would buy one again in a heartbeat, but need to get a car (preferably an SUV) that sits just a little lower so I can get in and out of it easily. I'm sad because it's getting so old.

Ford Explorer XLT

I have been very pleased with my Explorer, the second one I have owned! When I need another vehicle, I will instantly check out the new Explorers, or the Ford Edge! I have some friends who own a new Explorer, and they are very happy with their purchase as well, we are all happy.

Love my trusty Explorer

First American vehicle and first automatic transmission ever owned. It's not perfect, but I love that it has supported my needs for so long. It's now 16 years old and runs great, and I'm not exactly gentle on vehicles.

Love my Ford Explorer

I love Ford Explorers. Had one for years before my current old girl 2002. She will be going to Ford heaven soon but had been a reliable set of wheels all these years. The only problem with the Ford Explorer is that the back hatch tends to crack below the back window. I see it in other Ford Explorers so maybe it is a design flaw.

2002 Ford explorer

I have had my 2002 Eddie Bauer edition v8 Ford Explorer for about 5 years and I absolutely love this car. I have put it through hell out on the trails and it has nearly 200 thousand miles on it now but still works amazingly. I love the comfort and room that it comes with and I have been on a plethora of camping, off reading, and road trips with it and have never had a problem. Even though it is a very unassuming vehicle, it has been my baby ever since I got It and has really become my own.

I love my 'new" (to me) car!

It is high enough to see over overgrown shrubs on corners, spacious enough for huge bags of pet food, groceries and shopping items. The back seats fold down to fit lumber and building supplies, you can take it camping and use instead of a tent, high and dry and safe!
