Pros: Solidly built SUV; still, very nice in its old age. Cons: Poor paint engineering, muffler systems, power window motors, leaky A/C
Our family purchased our 1992 Explorer XLT in March 2000 from a good friend of ours who had to move across the world. We knew the car had been impeccably taken care of so it was an offer we couldn't pass up. After driving around in the Explorer for a ...
Pros: 4X4, roomy, great for hauling, not bad on gas for an SUV, Little maintanence Cons: Rusting along bottom door panels, bad security system
I own a 1992 Ford Explorer/Eddie Bauer and I love it. I purchased it in 1995 from a physician who used it primarily for highway driving (between his 2 offices). When I bought it, it had roughly 74,000 miles on it. I was slightly concerned with...
i have an older version of the explorer, a '92, with 129,000 miles on it and it still runs strong. it was extremely tough to drive when i first started, but as i got used to it, it feels like driving a car now. because my version has the less padded...
My husband and I ventured out to buy our first new (used) car together a year and a half ago. We were the model car shoppers. We spent a week going to many different car lots, looking at hundreds of cars, and test driving more than our share of...
Pros: Tough as nails- nothing's gonna stop 'er Cons: Frequent brake repairs, sluggish acceleration at high mileage
I must admit, before I really begin, that my poor Explorer has not been treated nicely. My parents bestowed it upon me when I got my license two years ago, and right from the get-go it's been beat-on mercilessly. Peelin' out, hard cornering, even brutal...
Pros: It is roomy and comfortable Cons: It requires a lot of time in the shop.
I can not place this vehicle on my love it or hate it list because both are true.
In 1996, my husband and I decided to purchase a new car. He wanted something he could tow things with and keep his tools in. I wanted something with four...
In 1992 I bought my daughter a new Ford Explorer with a promise from her that I drive it until she started college a year later. When she started to college she took the Explorer with her and I drove another car. She drove the Explorer until 1999 when...
Pros: Looks great, hauls lots of cargo. Cons: High maintenance, tipover problem
I bought this car new in September, 1992 principally because my wife and daughter liked the Forest Green color. SUV's were popular then, and my wife liked the idea of being higher than the rest of the traffic. The truck is somewhat bouncy, and if you ...
Pros: reliable, reliable, reliable - 183000 miles says so Cons: transmission, rust at bottom of doors and around gas cap
I've had my 92 Explorer XLT for 5 years. It had 132000 km on it when I bought it and it now has 295000 km (that's 183000 MILES) and still runs great. Hit a huge deer (3 pt buck) a couple of nights ago and I'm scared insurance is going to write-off my ...
Pros: Lots of room, very dependable Cons: a little noisy and bumpy
All I can tell you is how I feel about my 1992 Ford Explorer. My husband and I decided we needed a bigger car. So one day we sat down and made a list of all the possibilities. We weighed the pros and cons of each car. Eventually we agreed upon the...
Pros: space, easy to clean interior, rack Cons: I sat here for a few minutes and couldn't think of anything significant
Love my Explorer. Once this one croaks we are getting another. We have a small son and if you have children you know the paraphernalia that accumulates as soon as they are born. Our Explorer accommodates his stuff and I can still stop buy and get a...
Pros: Durability, comfort, reliablity Cons: nothing major
My dad bought this 92 eddie bauer later in 1997. It had 86,000 on it, and it was pretty well taken care of. Well, a year later, I got my liscence, and I drove the truck (i actually dropped my dad off before work, and then picked him up for awhile) I...
Pros: Room and Automatic Features Cons: Gas mileage
I recently purchased a 1992 Explorer (December) and have loved it. I was looking for a SUV, but because of financial restraints, my options were very limited. I have a taste for quality, so i couldn't settle for an old or bad looking vehicle,...
