What I have to say about the 2002 Ford Explorer: New notable changed for the Explorer includes a redesigned exterior and interior. Trims range from the base XLS, to the mid level XLT, to the Luxurious Eddie Bauer and Limited. The Explorer also now features more luxury appointments for 2002 as well as good rugged off road looks. Material quality is somewhat good. but not the best. Low resale value is also a major turn off for this SUV. All in all great SUV from Ford, hopefully it can take on the competition from the Japanese brands. Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Camerons-Car-Reviews/349462695066112?ref=hl
