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. This XLT gives up the leather and wood trim of the Limited but keeps the same strong V8 and four-wheel drive, saving you a good chunk of money. Under the hood is a 4.6L V8 making 225 horsepower, paired with an automatic transmission and four-wheel drive that handles snow and muddy trails with confidence. Fuel economy is 14 mpg combined, which is about what you'd expect from a V8 SUV of this era.
