"When I first got this truck I thought it was just ok... 300000 miles later I am still driving it and take care of it a little bit from time to time and it just keeps chuggin along! I'm thinking about buying a new car for my wife and we're definitely buying a Ford Truck no matter what. This truck really is built tough - thanks Ford!"

By Turtlepool (MI) on Sunday, March 03, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 98,000

Cons: "gas miliage isnt the greatest"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"I received a '94 explorer from my grandfather. He bought it from a used dealership and was the second owner which makes me the third owner. only problems we both had were the rims that came stock. one to two rims would always lose a bunch of air over night due to temp change. put good steel rims on and had no problem. rust can be a factor but for me a well running truck doesnt have to stay looking pretty its while life. parts are easy to find and are cheap. I'll own one of these till the day i die if at all possible."

Ford Explorer, older is better.

By NE Bowman (SC) on Monday, October 22, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 249,000

Pros: "good MPGs, drives like a truck"

Cons: "Interior controls are spread out."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"This is one of the last of the "good" explorers. It is an SUV that drives like a pick up truck, not a luxury car. The one I own has 249000 miles, orginal engine and tranny, and is 19 years old. It still gets 450 miles to the tank and averages 20-22 mpg (by comparison, my 2006 Explorer gets 21.5-22 mpg average). (I grew up with Chevy pick ups, but will keep driving a Ford Explorer!)"

My 1993 Ford Explorer Sport

"I bought a 1993 Ford explorer sport 1 year ago for 2000 $'s and it has been completely worth it. I just to be sure it was in good running condition I topped out the speedometer. It has 230000 miles on it, it runs strong it looks great and it feels great when sitting behind the wheel. The explorer is a great drive and was worth every penny."
