Miles Overview
The 2012 Explorer is Ford's mid-size SUV, the one that replaced the old truck-based model with a car-like unibody platform. On the road it feels more like a tall car than a truck, with a smooth ride and steering that's easy to live with day to day. The cabin is genuinely roomy, and the third row folds flat to open up a big cargo area when you need it. Some owners have had the Sync screen go blank or the paint bubble on the hood, though both were fixed under warranty. This front-drive XLT uses the 3.5L V6 making 290 horsepower, paired to an automatic transmission, and it's rated at 20 mpg combined. The XLT's standard cloth seats and 17-inch wheels keep the price down, but you can add the Sync infotainment system and a power liftgate if you want them.
