- 2005 Explorer Limited 4X4
We got our Explorer from CarMax at a higher price, but have not gotten a lemon from them on other buys. We got it to pull a 4400 # travel trailer from Houston, TX to North Pole, AK. I have driven Fords since 1969. My wife and I are retired teachers. Our son is in the Air Force and stationed at Eielson AFB with his family. The Explorer was a little small for the trailer, but has done well in the snow and ice here in Alaska. First picture is in Texas with my 2004 Red Lightning in the background and the second is in Alaska after I had the engine, transmission, and battery heaters installed one of the few Texas Explorers with an electrical plug hanging out the front grill. We had some nights at -49 and that is cold for a Gulf Coast Texan
