my mom has a 2002 explore xlt, 4wd, 4.6L v8. i drove it for about 1000 miles in the past week, and all i can say is it is NICE!!!! it rides so smooth and quiet, it handles so well, and turns so sweet, i like it. drove it a little off road, nothin major, nothin too write home about, but it took it well (much better than her 93 plymouth voyager did). i loved how it is new and different, yet i feel so comfortable and it feels so familiar

Have you noticed that there are a lot more blind spots in the newer models?? Maybe its just me!

Crud three more posts and I have to pay Rick for the Elite Explorers status
(I promised that if I stayed on this board for at least a year or 500 posts, I would pay for the Elite Status)
