More About the 2021 Ford Explorer

Ford Explorer Overview

When Ford started selling the Explorer in the early 1990s, it was one of the few sport utilities on the market. Popularity in SUVs has since grown, as have the Explorer's dimensions, and the recently-redesigned Explorer is a three-row midsize SUV with seating for seven people. Accident-avoidance technology comes standard. The Ford's 5,600-pound max towing capacity and optional four-wheel-drive make it versatile for whatever life throws its way.

pros
The interior is very clean looking with the accents on the dashboard and the colors of the fabrics. I love the features, specifically the second row heated seats and climate controls, the all around cameras and parking assistance, cooling front seats and heated steering wheel.
cons
The road noise can get a little loud on rough roads but this may be fixable with a tire upgrade.
