Ford Explorer 2008 2009

**maop99** · March 25th, 2014 07:52 PM

Planning to purchase a 2nd hand explorer 2008 or 2009... I'm just concerned about the fuel consumption. I've read and heard that it could be as low as 4.5 up to 7km/l city driving... I don't know how accurate these are? Tama ba? Can it go as high as 7? 4.5 might be too low for me 5 to 5.5 is okay.

Any comments?
Regular traffic lang not heavy. I don't usually get heavy traffic during my travel time.

Thanks for the help.

If you're concerned with fuel consumption, try looking at economy or diesel vehicles and not a Ford Explorer.

I got a very fresh Eddie Bauer Explorer, its very good car for long drives especially with kids. I'm selling mine, its in pristine condition. We are planning to purchase an expedition. We love the comfort it provides. You can message me.
