  Overall Good SUV - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
  By wbjeffers - January 12 - 6:30 am

  I have owned my explorer sport for almost a year now and have put 15,000 miles on it thus far. For a V6 with only 200 horsepower it moves when you punch it. The only complaint I have is that I kinda regret not getting the 4 doors for the added convenience but I am happy with it. Its been reliable and fun to drive. I average 20 mpg with combined city/highway driving. The 6-CD player works great and have had no mechanical problems at all. Ford does make a good SUV.

  Tuff little truck, couldnt be happier! - 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
  By Liz - December 23 - 2:56 pm

  I love this truck! Only problem so far was covered by warrenty. Size is perfect for someone like me, no kids, 2 dogs, unmarried. Handles like a dream in the snow and carries 4 snow boards, 4 people and all the gear without any trouble or feeling weighed down. Surf board fits on top and running boards make it easy enough to strap the board on top. This truck has been very cheap to own and so far has only required maintenance to keep running; it has over 125k miles on it! Cant say enough good things about it and I will drive it until it wont start anymore. Switched out the stock shocks for Monroe and couldnt be happier. Its the only mod I made and I will never go back to stock shocks.

  Love this thing! - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
  By nissianjeff - November 22 - 5:13 am

  I got the 5 speed model. Love it! So much fun to drive. Bit bumpy tho in town. Wish it had a bigger tank. gettin right at 15MPH. Good stereo and speakers, ice cold AC too! Power windows, locks, etc. Its black and I decked it out with a lot of crome options, step bars, mirrows, outside door handles, fuel door cover, etc. Looks great! Get lots of compliments on it all the time. Added the windows awnings, bug sheild too. Its quite a looker! I wouldnt have liked it near as much with the auto tranny tho, Im sure! Love the 5 speed!

  The Explorer has been great smooth ride. But yet its still rugged; the 4x4 is awesome here in Michigan. It has come in handy

  Private use - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
  By Art - July 2 - 6:20 am

  This is a great vehicle to use specially here in New York where the roads have holes and bumps all over the place. It is very comfortable and very secure. I have not had any issues with it whatsoever. Very dependeble and a lot of power. It does spend some gas but if you take in consideration that I have not spend any money to the mechanic it makes it worth it. I do take care of it by doing the regular mantaince schedule.

  Owned used for 1 & 1/2 years - fun - 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
  By NITH - January 30 - 10:00 am

  Ive owned for 18 months. Its been great to drive. Great for short camping trips. Ive also driven it long distances with easy. It is a solid vehicle I dont ever have to worry about. Perfect vehicle for single or married w/o kids. CD Player is awesome. Backseat is hard for people to get into. DO NOT TOW WITH THIS VEHICLE! I towed a Mini Cooper on a full size trailer and burnt my brakes out. Quick and a great daily driver.
