The Ford Explorer is a name that may be familiar to those who’ve hung around the SUV scene for any amount of time. It has long held a solid reputation as the Escape’s bigger, roomier brother. Though the Escape will be discontinued in 2025, the Explorer is still going strong, with a variety of trim options and engine selections to choose from, allowing buyers to drive off the lot with either a practical family wagon or an affordable, no-expenses-spared luxury cruiser.
