        Drove this baby for 10+ years.

        by Aaron B on 6/12/2026 1:32:17 AM

        Been in the family since it was new. Reached 500k miles before selling her. She was a beast. Never once broke down on me and she could take a beating. Got it stuck between 3 trees, drove it into a pond, and had a tree fall on it, whithstood crazy hail storms and she still trucked better than most new cars. They don’t come like that anymore.…

        A Keeper for Life!

        by Shano73 on 5/14/2023 4:29:35 PM

        Although technically a '95 by Confirmation of VIN my 2-Door Ford Explorer 4x4 Sport w/5-Speed Manual gearbox has the body style of the '96. I absolutely LOVE these 2-door Sports...the body style, the handling, versatility, fuel mileage, practicality, along with being one of the MOST reliable vehicles I've ever owned 4 times now, makes this particular Ford Product a Keeper for Life! The parts guy at my local Ford Dealership says the combo I've got on my '95 is basically like owning a unicorn being 2-door, 4x4, AND having a 5-Speed tranny. I'll take my unicorn anyday, this is now my 4th Ex Sport and I'm NOT letting go of this one. Regrettably the prior 3 I parted ways with were all decisions based on wanting to try something different and/or owning too many vehicles at the time. BIG MISTAKE is what I've always discovered and finding this needle in a haystack I will not part ways ever again! I honestly have not owned any other vehicle that could match the Ex Sports reliability. Find one that's in good well cared for mechanical condition, continue to stay on top of your recommended oem maintenance and you won't be disappointed! Great fuel mileage for a versatile SUV, turn on a dime steering for ease of maneuverability, fold down rear seats to add to an already ample cargo space, short & narrow wheel base makes the Ex Sport fun to drive and easy to get around, and when you can find one...the fun of off-roading capability with shift on the fly 4wd makes these vehicles one to grab when you have the opportunity! OH I almost forgot to mention, 249k original miles with original engine and transmission (recommended maintenance always followed and confirmed thru Car Fax history) and still runs like a champ!…
