1994 Ford Explorer 4x4 Sport review from North America

"Keen vehicle, little or no real problems to speak of"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

As the car was old when I first got it, I expected problems. At first I was having major shifting problems. The car wouldn't go from 1st to 2nd. It was locked in 1st and the reverse was jammed. I assumed it was the clutch, I have yet to work out the problem, but that is my concern. The water pump went at 115,000, which I'm assuming is to be expected. The door doesn't close properly, however that is due to the previous owner who opened the door too far and bent the hinges, an easy fix.

General comments?

I love this car, I got it from my older brother who found something a little more him. As my first car, I am proud to own it. Although I may end up buying a new transmission, I feel that it is worth it. The performance isn't bad either, the speedometer only goes to 85 but I've had it to over 100mph and I think it did rather well considering its and SUV. Although the gas mileage isn't plausible.
