Meet the 2016 Ford Explorer XLT the SUV that says I have plans even when the plan is just getting groceries. Under the hood sits Fords burly 3.5L V6 producing a hearty 290 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque, hooked to a smooth automatic transmission that hustles you where you need to go without whining about it. This ones been treated right with under 107,000 miles (thats less than 10,000 miles a year), so its just warmed up and ready to work. EPA-rated at 16 MPG city and 23 MPG highway, its not a hybrid and it doesnt apologize for being fun. Factory features youll actually use (and brag about): - Engine and drivetrain essentials: 3.5L V6, 290 hp / 255 lb-ft, paired with Fords automatic transmission and available all-wheel-drive capability for better traction when the weather throws a tantrum. - Seating and cargo: Roomy three-row seating that comfortably fits family, friends, or Costco runs. The third row folds to create flexible cargo space, and the split-fold second row lets you carry long stuff and passengers without an argument. - Comfort basics: Power-adjustable drivers seat, supportive cloth seating surfaces, air conditioning to keep everyone from melting, and large doors for easy in-and-out access. - Infotainment and connectivity: Fords SYNC voice-enabled system for hands-free calling and audio control, Bluetooth streaming, USB and auxiliary inputs so your playlists actually make the trip enjoyable, and steering-wheel-mounted audio and cruise controls for convenience and safety. - Convenience: Remote keyless entry, power windows and locks, tilt-and-telescoping steering column, and plenty of cubbies and cupholders because chaos needs organization. - Safety and control: A full complement of airbags (front and side curtain), anti-lock brakes (ABS), electronic stability and traction control, tire pressure monitoring, and Fords tried-and-true stability systems to keep you planted when the road gets dramatic. - Practical hardware: Durable suspension tuned for everyday comfort, capable towing potential with the V6 when properly equipped, and a sensible wheel-and-tire setup for all-season real-world driving. This Explorer XLT hits the sweet spot: roomy without being a moving billboard, powerful without guzzling the planet, and reliable without pretending to be a collectible classic. If you want an SUV thats ready for carpools, road trips, and the occasional whoops, I bought too much grocery run all while looking like you planned it that way this ones got your name on it.
