Used 2009 Ford Explorer SUV Consumer Reviews
09 Explorer- Meets expectations!
We wanted a vehicle that could tow 5000lbs, seat 7, be comfortable, have nice amenities, drive nicely, got decent gas mileage, and over-all be a nice family vehicle. Our 2009 Explore E.B. has met all of that, and done so in surprisingly good fashion. I like it, wife loves it, kids approve, dog wags its tail evertime whe jumps in also, win, win, win, win!
Great SUV with a few issues so far.
Got the got Explorer brand new, Only issue i had was that rear axles lock up around 69K, had to replaced cost around $5k. Road noise is also bad, getting wind noise from the driver side window.

**FANTASTIC**
This Ford Explorer is the best car we have ever owned. We before owned a crappy Chrysler minivan. We bought the Eddie Bauer which had every feature. One of the nicest middle class suvs you could buy.
I love Explorers
I have been a fan of the Ford Explorer, but this gen is my favorite. Despite having some issues when I first bought it about a year ago, that was mostly due to previous owner and dealership, and it has been a great SUV. It has been reliable and have only had to replace a front bearing so far. Mine has almost 120,000 miles on it so far.
Fun to drive
For those of you that needs space, power and a pleasent ride, the Explorer is an excellent choice for the price. It's very fun to drive. Poor gas mileage in the city but good enough in highways considering the V8
