- 2011 Explorer XLT
So I hit 3000 miles on my 2011 Explorer.
likes--
-3 rows of seating comes in real handy.
-the looks are growing on me.
-good amount of storage, when the seats are down as well as behind the 3rd row of seats.
-nice mft interface.
-for the $35k that I paid, best in class.
-fits in the garage, next to my wife's sports car.
-great for camping and road trips.
dislikes--
-braking is horrible.
-front end is too low to the ground.
-better fuel economy.
Would like to see--
-needs a 1"-2" body lift.
-rear standard wall plug in rear cargo area.
all and all, I am pleased.
I was in Hawaii for a week, and rented a 2011 Tahoe.
The Explorer is soo much nicer.
the rear storage space was actually quite a bit less on the Tahoe.
The fit and finish on the Tahoe does not compare.
For the 35k that I spent, it is really hard to improve on what I could have purchased.
If I had spent more, my options would have openned up.
But for 35k the Explorer is a darn good deal.
