Major dissapointment.

"Owned a 93 T-bird for 120000 problem free miles, and also a '05 F-150, bought used in '07 (with high miles,) but a solid ride none the less, figured this '06 explorer w/23 k miles on it would be as dependable as the above Ford products. Nay, nay. 67k miles and the radiator leaks, the trans needs a solenoid block to correct the 'slams' when shifting into 'R', and the rear axle hub bearings are growling (a common problem on these rigs, I hear.) Guess it's another case of newer, costlier, and make 'em so the service bays at the dealerships stay profitable."

"I have driven from NYC to Alabama Twice in my truck and I have had no mechanical problems at all, very reliable indeed. Even though the gas mileage isn't all that great in the city, but the more you drive on the highway it does improve, but I can be better."

"This is my 3rd ford explorer. I was very happy with the last two, but this one is by far my favorite. I love it so much that when my lease was up, I purchased it. My kids are getting bigger so I just might have to go for an expedition, but I do not want to part with my explorer. I have had it for 4 years and I have not had 1 problem with it. It looks and drives just as good today as it did the first day I got it."
