We've had a 2004 Explorer Sport Trac for about a month now. It's a comfortable ride, but I've never owned a vehicle that has had such lousy fuel economy. I took my son 4 wheeling today. We climbed two mountains (and coasted down both of them), driving a total of 100 kilometers before we fueled up this evening. Total time spent in 4 wheel drive was probably less than 10% overall. We burned 23 liters of fuel. For those of you who are metrically challenged, that's 10 mpg . . .
Okay, so it was a little unusual today. The previous tank, however, wasn't much better at 17 liters per 100 km, or about 14 mpg.
Is this in line with other people who have the 4 liter 4X4?
