Miles Overview
The 2002 Explorer is Ford's mid-size SUV, a direct rival to the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Chevrolet TrailBlazer. It rides smoothly on the highway and handles well for its size, with a sharp turning radius that makes parking easier than you'd expect. The cabin is roomy, with available third-row seating and fold-down rear seats that create plenty of cargo space for hauling gear or friends. Some owners report rust around the rear wheel wells and a stuck blend door actuator that traps the airflow on defrost. The XLT is the mid-level Explorer, sitting above the base model and below the Eddie Bauer and Limited, and it gives you a solid mix of comfort and utility without the top-tier price. This XLT has a 4.0L V6 making 207 horsepower and four-wheel drive, which is enough grunt to tow a small boat or trailer without feeling strained on the highway. It comes with cloth seats and a basic stereo, so if you want leather or a premium sound system you'll need to step up to the Eddie Bauer or Limited.
