This is the 5TH Explorer I have owned, and this one is the best yet. I have noticed a lot of refinement and engineering improvements even from my 2002. Ford continues to make a great product even better.

Decent Overall SUV

This is a decent overall SUV but does need to improve the seats and the engine to really make it a much better one. I tested a Buick Rainier and its seating and 5.3L V8 are far superior to the Explorer but the Rainier is hard to get in and out of the backseat and doesn't come with a third row seat.
best for the money

nice ride and handling for a sport utility that can double as a pleasure vehicle and tow vehicle.
Whining noise in rear end

I purchase my Explorer on 3/8/2004. At just 2100 miles, I developed a high pitch whining noise in the rear of the vehicle. I returned to dealer no 3/29/2004 to have them check the problem. They told me that this a known problem, that Ford is working on a redesign of the rear end. HOWEVER, there is no fix at this time and ask ME to call them back in a month. I called Ford Customer Service. They told me the same thing the dealer did and also that Ford does not consider this a safety issue, that there WILL NOT BE A RECALL ISSUED for this problem. As of today, April 14,2004, my Explorer is still NOT repaired and the noise is getting louder!
