The Ford Explorer has worked on its style and refinement over the years. Revamped in 2011, this SUV offers a very versatile cabin with a factory-standard 7-seat configuration. Buyers can order it with a 4-cylinder EcoBoost or 3.5L V6 that can tow up to 5,000 lbs. (2,268 kg). This vehicle has enjoyed a very successful career over the last two decades!
