What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2003 Ford Explorer

2003 Ford Explorer Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range
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
