built 188 days ago
Riding an adaptation of the rugged F-150 pickup frame, these (Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer) are old-school SUVs with moderate off-road abilities, and better-than-average towing, particularly with the optional V-8 engine and six-speed transmission. The cabins are quiet, and the ride is more civilized than one might expect.

The Ford Explorer has a more sizeable engine than the typical midsize suv. Keep in mind that smaller engines typically get better gas mileage, but smaller engines can be stressed more. The typical midsize suv could learn a lesson or two from the Explorer in terms of pickup.

The 2006 Ford Explorer leads its class with 10 standard advanced safety technologies. Seven of these 10 standard features are new to the mid-size SUV class, including four new adaptive technologies specifically designed for Ford's stringent internal safety targets. The new Explorer provides the most active and passive safety features in its class.

The Ford Explorer greeted model-year 1995 with its first redesign. Some observers were surprised that this came just four years after the model's introduction, rather early by truck design standards. But Ford knew competitors were gunning for the nation's top-selling SUV, so an updating was needed to keep Explorer No. 1.

After seeing major changes over three busy model years, the Ford Explorer underwent detail improvements for 1998. The Explorer still offered one of the few two-door SUVs, but they were increasingly tough to sell in a market where four-doors ruled. Accordingly, Ford axed two-door XLs this year, leaving a pair Sport-trim models.
