Favorite car I have ever owned

Favorite car. This is the second explorer I have owned and I love them. I went from an XLT to a Limited all of the new features are amazing. The new body style is the best yet.

This car rates in my top four best ever.

So far we love it. Plenty of room, great acceleration, a huge array of driver friendly features that adds to a quality driving experience. We have no complaints and look forward to the next three years of quality driving.

Isn't time we see Ford EV

Ford explorer is a great car that's why police choose it. But I really would like to see Ford Explorer EV. Now a day a lot of people switching to eletric vehicles as the gas expense pays more than half of the purchase price and full in some cases, it depend on your driving habits. But my point is i wouldn't hesitate to by Ford explorer full eletric.

My 4th Explorer!

This is my 4th Explorer. So I guess you can say I love these vehicles. Roomy, comfortable and stylish. I don’t often need the 4 wheel drive, but it’s nice to know it’s there if needed. I’m always dropping the 2nd row seats, I keep the 3rd down, to haul stuff. While I’ve never towed a trailer, so I can’t speak to that. Bottom line, I love them. My 2020 dash is different and took a little getting used to. But it’s great.

Just what we wanted

We were looking to replace our family van but not lose seating. We love the sportiness of the Explorer, comfortable ride and appreciate all the extra safety features we weren't expecting!

Most comfortable and near safety features!!!

My Ford Explorer is so comfortable. Has apple car play and a multitude of safety features. It has the ability to tow 5500 lbs!! It is. 4 cylinder on a truck chassis. It has the power of a 6 cylinder. Yet gets great gas mileage. I have owned 6 cylinder vehicles for the last 15 years and this one feels like it has the same power.

Super Brand, Strong Performance, & Sporty Look

Shopped awhile for a blue sporty SUV that had the essentials and the 2020 Ford Explorer (Atlas Blue) has more than impressed me. The exterior design is what closed the deal for me. Ford nailed this generation with the flat, wide nose, aggressive headlights, and the sleek grille. It’s an XLT, an entry-level trim, but it has a leather interior with captain seats, and the blind spot markers (BLIS) along with lane integrity tech. It may be the only seven-seater SUV that has a 4-CYL engine, but its Ecoboost engine is no slouch! Acceleration and power are no problem, as it hits ~300 HP at 5500 RPM. Also it is capable of towing 5,300 lbs. It is RWD, and it rides smooth and handles like a sedan. The sixth generation of the Ford Explorer has “the look” of a winner that gives justice to the best-selling SUV of all time. I bought it with the intention of having it for up to a decade and more. It’s a vehicle I find excuses to drive.
