Used Ford Explorer for Sale in San Diego, CA

So I've had this car for a little over two years now. It did have some problems, like leaking coolant, that did not get solved over multiple repairs. Whether this was the part makers fault or the mechanics fault, I really cannot say. I love how much room there is in the back of the car. The back seats also fold down, so if I need to sleep in it on a road trip, I have more than enough room. Speaking of road trips, I drove it all the way from So-Cal to Seattle, WA. It made it up the entire trip with no problems. However, on the way back, the alternator died and I had to get it replaced. It's been going fine for a while now. I have to get the brakes replaced, but its honestly not that bad. It feels good on the road and has over 100k miles on it and only has needed a few repairs.

My experience with our Ford Explorer has been a pretty good one. To be honest, I'm not much of a Ford fan, but it was my wife's truck when we got married and it became our daily driver. We could do with a little better gas mileage out of it. Around town we usually get between 14-15 miles per gallon. On the highway, we usually get closer to 17-18. We have one of the 6 cylinder models and for the most part it has plenty of pep. The electronic shifting controls lag a little bit when you have to shift down more than 1 gear though. When getting on the freeway in a short distance, it can feel like the truck isn't moving when it's shifting, then it knocks you back into your seat once it hits the gear it's looking for. The 4wd works great. We regularly go up to Lake Tahoe to visit my wife's parents and we use the 4wd a lot in the snow. Never needed chains, but we always carry them just in case. Overall, it's a great little truck.
