For many years the Ford Explorer has been one of the best selling SUVs around. Though capable as a tow vehicle and able to venture off the highway, most Explorers spend their lives shuttling people and collecting groceries with luxurious ease.
The Explorer can seat five occupants, but an optional third-row seat that folds flat permits a seven-passenger capacity. It comes with either a 210-hp 4.0-liter V-6 or a 292-hp 4.6-liter V-8. The V-6 is matched with a five-speed automatic and the V-8 is matched with a six-speed automatic. Either engine size can be equipped with Rear- or All-wheel drive. All the standard radios now come with and audio input jack for mp3 players.
For 2007, The Ford Explorer simplifies its trim options.
Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2007 Ford Explorer, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2007 Ford Explorer for less money than when it was new. If the 2007 Ford Explorer was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2007 Ford Explorer is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.
Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2007 Ford Explorer will have a good resale value. This assumes that the 2007 Ford Explorer is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
