The Ford Explorer was the first full-size SUV and is still a major contender in the market. The Ford Explorer in Barrington is loaded with numerous hi-tech features and premium interior. It seats seven with room to spare. The standard configuration has a 290 HP V6 engine, front wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Overview:
The Ford Explorer is available in five trim levels from the base model, through Platinum. The base, XLT, and Limited are powered by a 2.3L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the Sport and Platinum models come standard with a 3.5L, twin-turbo, V6.

The Ford Explorer started out based on a body-on-frame suspension, while today it uses a unitized body construction that soaks up road imperfections. The vehicle is very comfortable in the city as well as for long-distance highway cruising. The elevated ride height means excellent visibility – it is fitted with a stability control system that takes care of the lean that is expected from any high riding vehicle.
