About Ford Explorer
The Ford Explorer is a series of SUVs produced by Ford Motor Company beginning with the 1991 model year. The Explorer, Ford’s first four-door SUV, was introduced as a replacement for the two-door Bronco II. The Explorer is positioned between the Ford Edge and the Ford Expedition in the current Ford light truck lineup. The Explorer, like the Ford Ranger, gets its name from a trim package that was previously available on Ford F-Series pickup trucks.
