Ford Explorer Ford Explorer is a midsize SUV with body-on-frame construction. Available with V6 or V8 power, the Explorer competes against the TrailBlazer, Grand Cherokee, 4Runner, and Pathfinder. Explorer was completely redesigned in 2006 and we were pleased with the new steering, new suspension, and new brakes, all of which were vastly improved over the previous-generation.

Default Explorer Specs and more

Ok, here is a little helpfull link to a page that has helped me. It tells you alittle about the specs and performance of your truck. Also it helps you decode your VIN and tells you what your axle code means. Vin and axle code can be foun on the sticker on the side of your drivers door. Hope this helps people.

I have seen the VIN decoder page, but I need more info: Where is the list of package options that are installed on the car or truck. Is the list of codes (53g for trailer towing, 76h for rear sensing system, etc) in the engine compartment, glove box, door frame, trunk, etc? Where can that list be found? Thanks in advance for your answers.
