This is my third and most favorite Explorer. Unless you're towing boats, the V6 vs the V8 is definitely the way to go, especially since the horsepower and torque of each are so close. I hear alot about the ride being 'trucky' but even without bucket seats (which I had in the last two Explorers) I have found the ride to be very comfortable. Thus far I have six years of outstanding reliable driving - not a single extra trip to the Dealer, beyond the replacement of defective Goodyear tires!

Ever since the rollover controversy during which I watched Jack Nasser appear before Congress on CSPAN, I have had a dreaded fear of rolling over while driving my Ford Explorer. Other than that, it has been reliable. One time it died at the mall. The radio has been replaced. So has the torque converter and the vapor management valve. The front seats are confortable, but the rear seat is crowded for my wife (5'3").

I loved this vehicle when I first got it. Great power, OK handling (for a truck), and the perfect blend of size and capability for me. But it has turned into a real piece of junk. Problems too numerous to list here. My last Ford.
