Reviewed: 2003 Ford Explorer

4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range

Why the 2003 Ford Explorer?

Powertrain performance

5 speed auto always in the perfect gear. Previous truck was a four speed and fourth was too high in the mountains, third was too low.

Rear seat room & comfort

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

Ride smoothness

IRS allows it to corner better than previous generation Explorer. Quiet on the freeway compared to other SUV competitors.

Feature availability

Was a good value with Moonroof, 3rd row seating, AWD, and power everything.
