Popular used Ford Explorer trim levels
EchoPark carries used Ford Explorer SUVs across all major trim levels, from the practical XLT to the high-performance ST.

The Timberline includes a unique front skid plate and tuned suspension for rough terrain. Used Ford Explorer Timberline models typically range from $28,000 to $42,000.
Higher-end trims like the King Ranch and Platinum are also available for buyers who want premium leather interiors and the optional twin-turbo V6.

What to know before buying a used Ford Explorer
The sixth-generation Ford Explorer launched in 2020 on a rear-wheel-drive-based platform, replacing the front-wheel-drive layout used from 2011 to 2019. Buyers comparing these generations should note that powertrain, handling, and available features differ significantly between the two. The 2020 model year had the most recalls and owner-reported powertrain concerns in the sixth generation, while 2023 and 2024 models show improved reliability. At EchoPark, every listing includes a vehicle history report so you can review the SUV's background before purchase.
