1996 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
"One-of-a-Kind!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Installed new Transmission at 150,000 miles.
Installed new Sensors.
Check Engine light comes on, then turns off by itself.
Ride not too smooth... but what do you expect it's a truck.
Gas guzzler... but it is a V8.
General comments?
Very reliable vehicle. Has never left me stranded.
Great strength for hauling jet ski, boat, etc.
Multi-use vehicle.
Lots of room.
Looks really nice when cleaned up.
Feels safe to be driving in.
Truck 13-years old... but runs really good.
