Spacious 3-Row Family Versatility & Performance for Saratoga Springs & the Adirondacks

When family life demands spacious 3-row seating, heavy trailering capability, and robust all-weather four-wheel drive, a pre-owned Ford Explorer stands as one of America's most iconic and capable family crossover SUVs. Built on a rear-wheel-drive architecture featuring longitudinal engine placement, the sixth-generation Ford Explorer delivers enhanced towing distribution, a athletic turning radius, and athletic proportioning. Tailored for active families, boat owners, and outdoor enthusiasts living in Saratoga Springs, Ballston Spa, Wilton, and Clifton Park, a used Ford Explorer serves as the ultimate mobile sanctuary for daily school carpools along Route 9, sports tournaments, and weekend family road trips up the I-87 Northway toward Lake George and the Adirondacks.

Engineering excellence defines the driving dynamics of a used Ford Explorer. The unibody chassis features high-strength steel alloys, isolated front and rear suspension cradles, and double-ball-joint front MacPherson struts paired with a multi-link rear suspension setup. This design absorbs rough Upstate New York pavement, pot holes, and winter frost heaves effortlessly while delivering communicative steering feedback and minimal body lean through highway curves. For off-road enthusiasts seeking trail exploration, the rugged Explorer Timberline trim adds 8.66 inches of ground clearance, steel underbody skid plates, off-road tuned struts and shocks, front tow hooks, and Torsen® limited-slip rear differential.

Inside the cabin, a pre-owned Ford Explorer provides flexible seating for six or seven passengers. Choose between a 2nd-row 3-passenger bench seat or available 2nd-row captain's chairs with armrests that slide forward easily using the E-Z Entry mechanism to allow quick access to the third row. Cargo flexibility is exceptional: with all rows upright, the Explorer offers 18.2 cubic feet of trunk space behind the 3rd row. Utilizing the available PowerFold® 3rd-row seats expands cargo room to 47.9 cubic feet, while folding flat both the 2nd and 3rd rows reveals a cavernous 87.8 cubic feet of flat load room for camping gear, furniture, or sports gear.
