2004 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range
I needed the 3rd-row seating to keep 3 boys happy in the back seats - this was one of the main motivations for buying this SUV - and because I was so happy with my 97 Explorer. see full Ford Explorer review
2003 4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.6L V8

Other than a minivan, the explorer had much more room in the third row than other vehicles of comparable size. see full Ford Explorer review

Seats are too short. Toyota seats are generally not comfortable, but for a car in this price range I would have expected better. see full Toyota Avalon review
