What Camerons Car Reviews has to say about the 01 Explorer: Is America's best selling SUV still competitive enough to compete with new fresh competiton? Some might think so, the Ford Explorer was fully redesigned back in 1995 and 6 years later it is still fairly competitive. However, the Explorer is just now in the midpack. Power comes from a 4.0 L V6 or a 5.0 L V8 made into a 4-Speed Auto with the V8 or a 5-Speed Auto with the V6. Fuel Economy is okay rating at 15 City and 20 HWY. The Seats are very comfortable in the Explorer and are very couch like, however when turing corners in the Explorer it can get quite harsh.Is this enough to compete with the other competitors? Well we would suggest to wait for the 2002 redesign.

Best Ford truck 🛻 based SUV 🚙 EVER built. My forever favorite body style the second generation Explorer! I just picked up the red 1999 XL 2wd 4.0L v6 9 months ago on January 28, 2021 from one of my mom’s late friend’s house 🏠 who left it to me after she passed away October 1, 2020. Absolutely love it 😍! My super duper late Christmas 🎄 present 💝. It had 197k when I picked it up and it’s currently at 198k. Hands-down the one of the best generation Explorers ever built.

[@NDSautomotive]

Great SUV for the money. Really reliable. Last week my 99 explorer completed 180,000 miles on it.

[@wsuptrick]

i remember back in the late 90s early 2000s when everybody would get explorer or expedition lol eddie bauer ran the streets for a long time

[@TD-il6ju]

wsuptrick seriously

[@RK12373]

Had a 1994 Eddie Bauer. Best car I ever had.

[@em4957]

I my grandparents had the base model (not Eddie Bauer) 1998 Ford Explorer. I'm driving it now and it's really a great vehicle.

[@MaximusCrixusDb]

You didn’t have much then!

[@reecethomas8070]

This is gonna be my third little truck SUV👍👍👍👍

[@jcfuture1045]

Back in 2001 you would stop at a light and see about twenty of these all around you, mostly driven by suburban soccer moms. Great car though!

[@danielcook5029]

Piece of junk

[@nikopapadopulus]

La explorer es una camioneta,hoy vigente este modelo.Fue de avanzada,en linea y comodidad.

[@xxdecicco1xx]

I love the keyless entry pad, i got an explorer and use it all the time. I always lock my keys in the car when I go to the store or somewhere..Its a lot nicer than carrying your keys everywhere you go, then when you get back just put in the code and your in

[@JasnoGT]

I love my 2004 4x4 Grand Cherokee but years prior had a '96 Explorer XLT 2wd. I miss that thing. Drove so smooth. No major issues over 5 years. Traded it for a stupid BMW 323i which was unreliable.😐 This generation Explorer was beautiful.

[@NissanTy]

For these having the nickname "exploder" I still see a shit of these body style explorers on the road as well as the 3rd gen and the 4th gen, with a 4th gen model parked in my driveway

[@509evergreen]

Just got one with 90k miles excellent condition for 1500

[@angelgjr1999]

dude u r very lucky. These trucks are beautiful. They dont make them like this anymore. I drove a 2000 xlt.

[@jaylewis8720]

I have a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT with 352,200

[@CarsReviewer567]

Just brought a 2000 sport with 252k and just about 3000 miles on it in 3 weeks lol very nice SUV

[@whyme3772]

My grandpa had an Explorer from this generation a long time ago before he traded it in for a Hummer H2 in 2013, which he still has.

[@user-up4zi1do6p]

Excellent review.

[@astro4308]

Great truck

[@McBosshog85]

I have one of these with the 5L V8 in it. Very powerful and fast but I only get around 16/20 mpg. But I have yet for something to break so mine's a keeper(:

[@bobbydavenport8941]

[@bobbydavenport8941]

[@igorbudko6133]

Those aren't garage buttons that's a live hidden recording device that can save up to 3 5 minute conversations..just so you know

[@duvilopez7992]

Ford ❤

[@algeronisaac7743]

Do anyone know how to take the 5th SPEAKER out of truck all the way in the back by trunk on the right side

[@bobbydavenport8941]

Does this trim line come with heated seats

[@jofanning4600]

how do you find out what month of 2001 it was made

[@jofanning4600]

trying to get a nother key made need to know the month it was made in 2001

[@1ch1n0]

mine has seat warmers

[@miguelanguelmontoya107]

están padres pero x q no llegan a mexico

[@ricardocristofer9840]

Por qué dice que no llegaron a México? Aquí hay muchas de ese color y salieron nuevas de agencia aquí en CDMX allá en 2001.

[@krekmanski]

is it reliable ? i want 1, but im terrified of the cost of running one, cuz i hate to be a slave to my car. is it strong enogh for bad countryside roads, does the interior rattle/squeek alot, is it quite on the mway, is it freakishly slow and underpowered?

[@angelgjr1999]

Yordan Krekmanski Its a solid truck and its surprisingly quick(the v6 sohc). I recommend it. Just do proper maintenance and she will last you a long time.

[@matth3805]

I have one a 2dr not bad for what it is paid $1500 for it it's a 98 drives exactly like a Ranger and I believe its the same drivetrain and engine too, and anyone knows Rangers run forever good trucks

[@felipebauer2852]

hola

[@mikebielemeier6695]

I like it

[@thomasrussell96]

I love this generation of Explorer as well, but nothing about the interior quality of this gen is "decent" & the seats are comfortable-yes! but NOT lexus-like. :/

[@luiscarranza9606]

“It’s hard right here” what you want it to be a pillow

[@CameronsCarReviews]

Yes

[@androgent8743]

Inturr and exturr.

[@billyidolrockstar522]

That's not the last one

[@jcsioson9941]

Ford expiorer is old suv

[@timbow79able]

these are jumk we bought one same thing brand new 1998 evert month we had a recall letter went on for years dont buy these there expensive to maintain

[@RK12373]

Your spelling is jumk.

[@QuentinRichardsthe2012brony]

These were the best ones! I had one for 15 years - still have it - and it works fine. (2000 Ford Explorer) And obviously, you can't spell or speak English.

[@whyme3772]

This is honestly the best generation of the explorer. 2002-2005 was okay, 2006-2010 was THE WORST, and the new ones now are also okay. But this generation is reliable. even over 20 years after they came out I see a fair amount of them on the roads. Especially in the south.
