2014 Ford Explorer XLT

Blue Flame Metallic gives this 2014 Ford Explorer XLT FWD a bold look, and with 116,153 miles this one is positioned exactly where many value-focused SUV shoppers want it to be: roomy, well equipped, and priced as an opportunity.

If you are searching in Wesley Chapel, Tampa, Land O Lakes, Lutz, or New Tampa for a third-row SUV with strong everyday usefulness without stepping into a higher price point, this Explorer deserves a look.

Powered by a 3.5L V6 paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, this Explorer delivers the kind of smooth, proven performance that works well for commuting, errands, carpools, and weekend use around the Tampa Bay area.

Front-wheel drive keeps the layout simple and approachable, and the overall size gives you the kind of passenger room and cargo flexibility that made the Explorer such a popular family SUV.

Why this Explorer XLT stands out as a value buy: - 116,153 miles - 3.5L V6 with 6-speed automatic transmission - Third-row seating with room for family, friends, and everyday cargo needs - Leather-trimmed heated front seats with power driver seat - Rear view camera, reverse sensing system, and BLIS with cross-traffic alert - Voice-activated navigation, premium audio, and dual-panel moonroof - Value Car positioning for buyers looking for space and equipment at a lower entry point This Explorer was originally well equipped from the factory.

The window sticker shows Equipment Group 202A, MyFord Touch, a blind spot information system, rear view camera, dual-zone electronic temperature control, premium audio, remote start, heated front seats, and a dual-panel moonroof.

That gives this SUV a lot of the comfort and convenience features buyers still want in a practical family vehicle.

Inside, the Charcoal Black leather-trimmed interior gives it a more upscale feel than many older three-row SUVs in this price range.

Power-adjustable front seating, second- and third-row flexibility, steering wheel audio controls, SYNC with voice command, and useful storage throughout the cabin all help make it a solid fit for real daily use.

Whether you need extra seating for teenagers, room for sports gear, or a budget-friendly SUV with more versatility than a sedan, this Explorer covers a lot of ground.

This one also tells a straightforward ownership story.

The CARFAX shows 2 previous owners, 17 service history records, personal use history, and last ownership in Florida.

It also shows a minor accident reported in April 2017 involving the left side, left front, and left rear, with no airbag deployment reported.

There is also at least one open recall shown on the report.

Important value-car notes: this Explorer is not certified, it is not eligible for the Parks Plus Nationwide Lifetime Powertrain Warranty, and it is being offered as a value vehicle.

For the buyer who understands that and simply wants a roomy, nicely equipped SUV with strong utility and a lower cost of entry, this Blue Flame Metallic Explorer makes a lot of sense.

For shoppers looking for maximum space and features for the money, this Explorer XLT offers a lot of SUV for the price point.
