2014 Ford Explorer Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2014 Ford Explorer appreciate its comfort, space, and performance. Many highlight the vehicle's stylish design and value for money. However, some express concerns about maintenance costs, interior space for larger passengers, and issues with specific high-mileage models."
The Ford Explorer is the best vehicle I have ever owned . I like to buy american also looked at the Lincoln MKX which was noisy in comparison . I believe Lincoln has become an over priced Ford . Go with the Explorer if you are looking for an SUV
May 19, 2014The Ford Explorer is the best looking (inside and out) and driving SUV on the road today! All Around Great Performance and absolutely a pleasure to drive on any roadways. Very comfortable interior and with a quiet ride and feel.
April 22, 2015After driving the new Ford Explorer sport for the first time about six months ago, it has to be the best SUV on the market. The performance of the 3.5L twin turbo 365 HP engine is second to none. The cab is nicely appointed, very comfortable and outside sound is minimal. The styling is low and lean and with the all black grill the overall appeal is outstanding. At 16MPG city, the gas mileage could be improved a bit, but you have to give up MPG for that kind of HP. This SUV is great to drive as you feel sturdy and solid in it, yet the nimble steering and responsive suspension make you feel in complete control. It will get wherever you want to go as fast as you want to go there, but keeps you in control and can also get you out of any situation needed.

January 12, 2015I do like the explorer, the interior is a bit smaller than an older model we had but still enough room for a few people. I wouldnt specifically recommend large adults ride in the second or third row seats. It has a fair amount of power to move around and haul small trailers. If someone was going to be hauling anything over 50% of its rated capacity with any frequency I would strongly recommend buying something else. If someone intends to haul children around and maybe a small pop-up camper it should do adequately.
November 18, 2023Love the 2014 & 2015 Ford Explorer Sport 4WD Ecoboost 3.5 Twin turbo . Loaded and very nice. Only issue youll have is doing a maintenance and service records check to see if the Timing chain tensioners & phazers have been serviced on these engines around 80k to 100k miles or if not you will have enormous repair costs down the road.
March 27, 2021Excellent value for the SUV. A very comfortable vehicle, perfect for Barrie winter weather.
March 8, 2023I love all the features especially the sync system. Rides so smooth its crazy and has plenty of power
May 20, 2024Solid car. Great options in the XLT. Love the double sun/moon roof and leather seats. Compared to GMC Acadia and Nissan Pathfinder.
February 25, 2023This car a good value!! I wish it had a moon roof but it handles nicely And feels safe! The seating is amazing!! Very happy.
October 29, 2024A good investment for the price at that time
