Solid Truck I Could Depend OnSource: Cars.com...The interior blows any 95 competitors away, Beautiful beige leather interior with a 2 tone (beige and black) dashboard and centre console looks luxurious and sophisticated. A lot of storage space throughout and roomy. I didn't have the 3rd row of seats so the trunk was large. Fold the rear seats down and you've got a flat surface where 2 adults could sleep. The fuel consumption was pretty good for an SUV. It ranged from 11.2L (21 MPG) on the highway (summer) to abt 15.5L (15 MPG) in the city (winter). Usually I averaged between 11.7L - 13.8L (17-20 MPG) It was a very reliable vehicle with no... |

Nice rideSource: Edmunds...Never let us down. As a result of this we decided to stay in the ford family. We priced the explorer loaded and the mercury mountaineer loaded. Much to our suprise the truck was about $2,000 less. It was a no brainer we went with the mountaineer. Overall the truck is quite an improvement over the 03 explorer, rides great, more comfortable, just nice all around. The only draw back is the fuel mileage. It could be better. With the explorer we got spoiled after I changed the fluids to full synthetic. With the explorer we got about 15 town, 23 highway. the Merc gets 11 town 18 highway... |

Why should I also consider these?
The Explorer isn't the only SUV to cross the crossover Rubicon.
It could be argued that the Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee are crossovers, since they're going to be driven primarily on pavement.
Both are brand-new this year, and they're fantastic efforts, with better off-road ability than the Explorer, if a touch less avant garde inside.
The Honda Pilot used to be the best crossover on the market, but the new version has a plasticky interior and over-the-top SUV styling that detracts from its driving feel.
The GMC Acadia is a bit narrower inside than the Explorer, and lacks the high-tech onslaught, but it's still a fine crossover with a tasteful balance of sport-ute looks and capabilities.
