1994 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
"Great reliable vehicle that can take abuse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace drive belt.
Rebuilt transmission at 170,000.
Replaced wheel bearings.
Really bad gas mileage.
It leaks dust really bad.
General comments?
I really like driving it it's really fun.
I have never gotten stuck.
Very reliable.
For all the $%&! I have put it through it has held up great.
It is a great hunting and boose cruise'in vehicle.
The only time it ever failed me was when the drive belt broke 5 miles from home.
