This vehicle has been one of my all time favorite vehicles I've owned. It is a midsize SUV, has plenty of room for hauling around what you need while still getting great MPG (usually 25mpg). While many SUVs feel top heavy and unstable during travel, the Ford Explorer Sport is tight and easy to drive. It has a comfortable interior, great get up and go when you need it (6 cylinder) and is always one of the best looking vehicles in the lot! The A/C keeps the vehicle cool all the way to the back and the rear seats lay flat to give even more options for hauling etc.

I purchased this vehicle used from my regular mechanic, so I knew it was a solid buy. It had a new, replacement transmission, which was a problem for this model year. For a ten year old vehicle, it was very clean with no rust and only minor plastic fading. Since it was pre-owned, it did have some stickers that were not removed. It also had very low miles for it's age, under 80,000 miles. It is roomy, with a third row seat you can fold down for extra storage. It also has the NSX sport package with running boards, 18" alloy wheels, a roof rack, extra trim and a premium sound system. It has a 4'3 liter V6 engine and automatic 4 wheel drive. It came with new tires, suited for on or off road use. They are a little noisy, but no more than a normal truck. It also has some interior noise, to be expected for an SUV. Although other reviews report engine problems, I have had none to date. Many of the parts the mechanic replaced before sale have a lifetime warranty, such as the brakes. Even though it is over 10 years old, when detailed, it still looks good. I get compliments on it often. Even though I came from a long line of GM purchases, I can't complain about it at all. It is not very fuel efficient, as could be expected for a mid-sized SUV. The pluses outweigh the drawback by a wide margin, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid used vehicle in this class.

Ford is a very well known name when it comes to talking about SUV'S and trucks, even cars. Therefore little time needs to be spent referring to the fact that it is an American Made Company and that fact alone can be the top selling point. There is a lot to be said about this universal vehicle. Starting with the exterior of the body, just looking at it makes you feel secure and gives you the sense that your family will be comfortably safe within it. Ford has been around for longer than I can remember and with that I remember growing up and my parents also had theirs as well. It is an great thing to be able to watch how to the style grows and changes with each year and how the demands on certain factors can change things within the truck. The interior, depending on model, is either leather or carpet type, either or makes the car look amazing on the inside. Okay, so enough with the talk about the looks and how amazing the features are, lets talk about the pickup speed, the auto 4x4 there are so many amazing features it will take you years to figure out how to use them all correctly. I know that we have had our truck for awhile now and the sound of the engine roaring every morning is like hearing the sounds of being comforted that you will get to each destination point and can most certainly rely on this truck to get you there.
