Come see stock #3097TM and experience it for yourself.About This 2020 Ford Explorer XLT At 129,595 miles, this Explorer is well into its working life — but that's not a red flag, it's an opportunity. The 2020 Explorer was built on Ford's rear-wheel-drive-based platform, a significant engineering upgrade over the previous generation, giving this generation stronger road manners and improved longevity. Buyers who maintain their vehicles regularly can expect a well-cared-for Explorer to push well past 200,000 miles. The XLT trim hits the sweet spot between affordability and features, giving you meaningful tech and comfort upgrades over the base model without the premium price of an Explorer Limited or Platinum.2020 Ford Explorer Performance and Engine Under the hood sits Ford's 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged 4-cylinder engine — the same basic architecture found in the Ford Mustang EcoBoost. It produces a healthy 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, giving the Explorer surprisingly spirited performance for a three-row family SUV. That power is channeled through Ford's smooth 10-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift, which lets drivers take manual control of gear selection when the situation calls for it. Combined with the 4WD drivetrain, this Explorer is ready for Michigan winters, unpaved back roads, and everything in between. Fuel economy typically lands around 21 MPG combined, reasonable for a full-size SUV in this class.Ford Explorer XLT Features and Interior The XLT trim brings meaningful features inside the cabin. Expect Ford's SYNC infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, dual-zone automatic climate control, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and Ford's Co-Pilot360 suite of safety technology — which includes automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane-keeping assist. The three-row interior comfortably seats up to seven passengers, making this a natural choice for families in Taylor and the wider Downriver area. The Sport Utility 4D body style means you get that full SUV footprint with genuine cargo flexibility — fold down the second and third rows and you're working with a surprisingly cavernous load area.Ford Explorer Reliability and Ownership The 2020 Explorer represents a major generational improvement over its predecessor. The rear-wheel-drive-based CD6 platform it shares with the Lincoln Aviator is more mechanically sophisticated than the 2011–2019 front-wheel-drive-based generation. Early 2020 models did have some teething issues with the 10-speed transmission and infotainment software, but Ford issued multiple over-the-air and dealer updates to address these. Owners who purchased 2020 Explorers with these updates in place — or who have had them applied — generally report strong satisfaction. The 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine is widely regarded as robust and reliable, particularly when oil changes are kept current. Regular maintenance, fluid checks, and attention to the transfer case on 4WD models go a long way toward trouble-free ownership well into the six-figure mileage range.
