Ford Explorer Usados en Venta

I like the Explorer pretty well, it's the first SUV I've owned and I wouldn't go back to driving a small car after my experience. I like how it handles but it's had to have a lot of work since I've gotten it, which is to be expected from driving it about 100,000 miles since it was purchased and most through no fault of how it was made (ea.. A toddler shoved a pencil into the air conditioner vents and I needed to fix it so it would change from a/c to heat again). I would like some work done to the interior, updating the stereo system, etc. The air conditioner vent has been lose and won't stay in position since I've gotten it. When I was looking to buy the car I test drove another Explorer and ultimately decided to get the one I got because of a large crack on the back of the other one. Soon after purchasing this one a large crack in the same spot appeared and I've found out it was a weakness common in Explorers. I've driven it often, and take it with me when I go hiking and it's always did great with the right maintenance.

This vehicle that I have is a very dependable vehicle. I bought it as just a way to get around basically but even though it has more than 200,000 miles and I've put around 15,000 miles on it, it still runs great. I've done a lot of maintenance on small things but the main things, such as the engine, have yet to give me problems. You can comfortably fit 5 people in there with lots of room for everyone.

I have a 1994 Ford explorer that I hate. When I bought it, it was already 15 yrs. old. At the time of purchase, I felt that it drove outstandingly well and that the interior was amazing, given it's age. Could have cared less about the 4x4 aspect of it, as I am not into those activities, proved to be useful in my 8th year of owning it when it snowed. The car had the space I needed to take my entire family on outings without the feeling of being cramped. Plus, it held all the geared required and the two dogs. I love that it came with a tow hitch already on it. When I hauled my 4x8 trailer filled with various yard debris, it didn't with out complaint. I hate the fact that it is a Ford. My past experience with this brand is not stable. Every Ford I have ever owned was a crappy car. I bought this car knowing that eventually I was going to have some sort of issue, not including normal wear tear of the vehicle. I was so right on so many levels. The gentleman told me, after I paid him, that this had been his elderly father's car, and he only drove six miles a day, two-three times a week. With in the first month, we had some sort of electronic issue that the mechanic fixed quick enough. Then after a smidge over a year, just about everything went bad at once. Starter, alternator, and water pump. A few months later, it was an enormous water leak from the heads. Ended up having to rebuild the top part of the motor before two years of ownership had passed. Every year since 2015, we have had to have major repairs done it. It has a check engine light on, been on for three years, and a certified mechanic can't find what is sending the code. We have changed stuff that the codes sent with no help. I hate it!
