2011 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 For such a beast I'm pleased with the gas mileage. I average 19-21 in almost all city/suburban stoplight and rush hour driving. Highway mileage drops fast if you drive over 70. Keep it under 70 and I get about 24. see full Ford Explorer review
