2006 Ford Explorer ESi

When you mess with a winner, you must be very, very careful, and that's what Ford was when they redesigned the Explorer for 2006. By careful we don't mean conservative, either. By careful, we mean Ford spent serious effort dotting the i's and crossing the t's, looking after the details that make all the difference. Our 2006 Explorer comes in the uplevel XLT trim which adds a chrome grille, unique bumper and trim, power seat, fog lamps, puddle lamps, 16-inch tires and wheels, an overhead console and additional storage to the standard features list. The combination of more chrome, bigger and bolder lamps and the new square-cornered aero mirrors make it look more like a Lexus SUV than a Ford, and we mean that in the most complimentary way. The 4.0-liter single-overhead-cam V6 was re-tuned with variable valve timing and it's rated at 210 horsepower and 254 pound-feet of torque. Ford worked hard to make a quieter vehicle as well, and their success is evident in all that you can't hear. Ford is a lot better at trucks than cars these days, and with the Explorer, they have shown just how good they are at getting the basics right. They understand that today's customer is keenly aware of all the choices in this segment, and that the customer wants more goodies for the money or he or she will go elsewhere.
