Whether you're navigating the switchbacks of the Cascades, cruising I-5 on a rainy morning commute, or heading out for a family weekend at Cannon Beach, the 2017 Ford Explorer Sport 4WD delivers the kind of all-season versatility and confident performance that makes it a favorite in the Pacific Northwest. With just under 98,000 miles and a CARFAX-certified one-owner history, this Explorer has been thoroughly inspected and reconditioned, ready for its next chapter.
Under the hood lies Fords robust 3.5L EcoBoost V6 paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift, delivering responsive acceleration and towing strength while remaining composed on long drives and rougher back roads. The intelligent 4WD system makes quick work of Oregon coast rain, icy mountain roads, or gravel trails in the San Juan Islands adapting to your surroundings without hesitation.
The Sport trim stands out with aggressive styling, Magnetic Metallic paint, and 20" machined aluminum wheels with painted pockets. Inside, you'll find a surprisingly luxurious cabin, dressed in Ebony Black with heated and cooled perforated leather bucket seats that make cold mornings and hot summers equally comfortable. Ambient lighting, a heated steering wheel, and a dual-zone climate system give this SUV the feel of a refined long-haul cruiser, while SYNC 3 with premium Sony audio, navigation, and SiriusXM keeps you connected no matter how remote your destination.
Practicality meets sophistication in details like the power-folding third-row seats, hands-free power liftgate, and twin-panel moonroof that floods the cabin with natural light perfect for soaking in views of snow-capped peaks or stargazing from your favorite camp spot. With seating for six across three rows including second-row bucket seats with power assist fold everyone rides in comfort, and there's still ample cargo space for everything from hiking packs to paddleboards.
Tech-savvy drivers will appreciate the 180-degree front camera with split view and washer for tight trailhead navigation, adaptive cruise control with forward collision warning for safer freeway travel, and the BLIS Plus package with inflatable rear seatbelts for peace of mind. Power-adjustable pedals, driver memory settings, a telescoping steering wheel, and auto-dimming mirrors further enhance convenience and driver-focused comfort.
From your daily drive in Tacoma or Eugene to a summer getaway in Glacier National Park, the Explorer Sport was engineered for families and explorers who don't want to compromise. With a power-folding third row, rear-seat climate controls, and smart USB charging ports, every passenger from the driver to the third row has what they need to enjoy the ride.
Recognized by Kelley Blue Book as one of the most awarded brands of its year, the 2017 Ford Explorer Sport continues to impress with a rare mix of utility, luxury, and tech-savvy design. If youre looking for a three-row SUV thats as comfortable downtown as it is at a mountain trailhead, this is the one that deliversevery season, every mile.

Come on ford
By Lydia on Tuesday, September 22, 2020
My biggest complaint is how hard it is to set up bluetooth devices. There isn't just 1 button. Theres a series of 4 buttons you need to get working prior to driving to hopefully get bluetooth. Just such a headache that the suv lost major points in my book for that. The headrests are those awful ones that push your head forward so they kill my neck on long drives. The fold down seats can hold a lot of weight which has been nice. However, the backs of the seats are a thin particle board that will break under enough weight. Here I was worried that the bar that holds the seats would break first. - 5.0
Built for those of tall stature
By Dave on Wednesday, February 03, 2021
Im 6'9, having owned full size trucks from the big 3, these gen5 Explorers are unequivocally the best fitting for my size. However, high window sills are a bit high for most shorter folks Ive talked to. In 100k miles, Ive only replaced rear brakes and front struts and only the right one had failed at that. Rear brakes are just about due. Best car Ive ever owned. - 5.0
Love for Mable
By Humnbrd23 on Saturday, May 29, 2021
Everything I could want in a vehicle. Mable (her name) has yet to fail. Drivability is excelent. Long trips are no issue in the comfort of Mable. There is room for everyone and thier luggage. She has double moon roofs to watch the stars at night or feel the sunshine in the morning. Mable also has towing capacity, but I have never needed it. Thank you to the couple that traded her in with only 64000 miles.
