1996 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
General comments?
Fast SUV.
Hard to get it stuck in the snow; drove it through 3 feet of snow and it plowed through it like a tank. It is good in the mud too.
The engine will not die as long as you change the oil every 3000 km, and the other fluids at 50000km. It will last forever.
