The Ford Explorer is a three-row midsize SUV that balances family space, towing capability and modern technology. Fairway Ford in Placentia helps North Orange County families compare Explorer trims and find the right fit for school runs, road trips and weekend towing.
The Explorer uses a rear-wheel-drive-based platform with available intelligent 4WD, giving it confident handling and strong towing for its class. Three rows of seating, flexible cargo space and a large touchscreen with connected technology make it an easy daily driver. Available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving adds convenience on longer trips.
Recent Explorer trims include Active, ST-Line, Platinum and the performance-focused ST, along with special editions in some model years. Each step adds more features, power or luxury. Trim names and availability change by model year, so ask our team about current options.
The Explorer is offered with turbocharged EcoBoost® engines, including a more powerful twin-turbo V6 on performance and upscale trims. Properly equipped, the Explorer can tow a small boat, personal watercraft or camping trailer. Ask us for the rating of the exact configuration you are considering.
