Used 1998 Ford Explorer Consumer Reviews
The Little Stuff
2nd Explorer to have the rear wiper die, moldings loosen, CD player and disc changer blink at 50k. Ford says, "it is no longer under warranty". Shouldn't a stock stereo not start to loose it's lighted display at 30k? Dealer couldn't fix it without "sending it out" for a month and charging me. Shouldn't it be fixed, warranty or no warranty? No, go spend $300 at local Ford authorized service center to fix the player if you want it fast. I was told there it is a "common" problem. If so, recall the darn things! The rear wiper is just a joke. Nothing else needs to be said.
I will never drive a regular car again!
If you tons of driving like I do,you will love the comfort,and ruggedness, however it does really use the gas! Very comfortableand reliable here where the snowloves to fall!

Explorer Sport
After owning my 1998 Explorer Sport for a year I am looking forward to trading it in. The vehicle handles poorly! Feeling as if you're going to tip at 40mph is not a good feeling. The V-6 engine has good pickup but the gas mileage is awful! As far as design goes, the Explorer Sport is pleasing to look at but lacks in interior design and comfort. It has good storage capacity. To sum it up, the Explorer Sport is nothing more then a Ford Ranger with a topper and I won't miss mine when it's gone.
Comfy SUV!
Ford explorer the best strong suv! Better than the other suv. Ford kick butts, specially my explorer Pure musclel! Take me anywhere i want to go Wherever, whenever!
