2004 Ford Explorer Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.6L V8
5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range		 For a mid-sized SUV, fuel economy is still as good or better than many 2008 cross-overs, and has all of the luxury features I like. see full Ford Explorer review
2004 Ford Explorer Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2005 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range		 wish it was higher. Part of our problem is that wanted and bought a model with the towing package. The lower gearing does impact fuel economy see full Ford Explorer review
2005 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic RWD		 Could be better see full Ford Explorer review
2004 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range		 Gets poor fuel economy, but that is expected from a large SUV see full Ford Explorer review
2004 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 13 - 14.5 for a V6! Ridiculous. see full Ford Explorer review
