2001 Ford Explorer Sport review from North America
"Great car, bumpy ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems were encountered during the 2 years we owned the car.
General comments?
A great performing SUV with very adequate power.
The interior was well-finished and comfortable, with all gauges and controls within easy reach.
The ride was harsh and bouncy, and was the primary reason for trading it for the far more comfortable GMC Envoy.
