11 Years and still on the job!

1992 Ford Explorer Sport 2dr SUV
A terrific workhorse that has served
as a daily driver, sports car, weekend
get-away vehicle and utility vehicle.
Bought it new and I'm keeping it until
it croaks (which I wouldn't think is
going to be anytime soon as it is
still in great shape).

1992 Ford Explorer XLT 4dr SUV 4WD
I bought it with 400 000kms in surrey BC, moved to Saskatchewan with it, drive it daily on rough gravel road. Tthe engine runs like new, uses no oil in 2000 miles of driving. Transmission is original and untouched, (fluid changes every 5000 kms help) Motor has never been opened, has K/N air filter,and performance chip. Just put 31" MTs on it (no they don't rub) Will keep driving it until … it dies.

1992 Ford Explorer XL 4dr SUV 4WD
Yes! 304,000 miles and still going! The gas mileage is at 14.6 right now. Original engine...replaced transmission four years ago at $1300. A little rust at the rear rocker panels. Clear coat is gone. Seats are just now getting uncomfortable. Replaced the radius arm bushings several times. This has been one good vehicle!

1992 Ford Explorer XLT 4dr SUV 4WD
i bought my 1992 Explorer 5 years ago with about 150000 miles on it. I bought it for $700. It rode okay and I thought it was worth the try for the money. I now have over 298000 on it and haven't had to do anything but change oil, brakes, tires and a tune up. Best buy for the money I have ever bought
