1996 Ford Explorer review from North America
"Nice ride, but 12mpg is not worth it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I haven't had this thing for more than a month yet, but a fuel injector already seized up on me and a spark plug fowled.
General comments?
It handles OK and it great on the highway.
Have to get rid of it as it only gets 12mpg (no joke)
Transmission is showing signs of wear
Nice interior and rides very nice.
