Ford Explorer for Sale
A busy family doesn’t need to waste their time on cars that don’t fit their dynamic lives. From weekend vacations to a school field trip to outdoor excursions in Mother Nature, you need the capacity to handle many passengers, congested urban spaces, and a few bumpy, rural back roads. After all, not every great Michigan adventure comes with a well-paved highway.
If that sounds like the kind of vehicle you need, it’s time you look into a Ford Explorer for sale. These SUVs celebrate generational travelers and woodsy-folk alike, giving you the best versatility, cargo, and tech for enjoying the great outdoors and day-to-day life.
At LaFontaine Ford Birch Run, we are proud to help our neighbors find the perfect Ford Explorer for their needs. From new to used, financing to service, we’ll take care of you, your family, and your car for every mile ahead.
An Overview of the Iconic Ford Explorer
To truly understand the appeal of this three-row SUV, let’s break down exactly what you can expect from a Ford Explorer. For starters, the Explorer’s main purpose is right in its name. With all-wheel drive, a powerful engine, and great ground clearance, this SUV is tailored to be a reliable and rugged vehicle no matter the terrain. It makes camping, off-roading, and uneven gravel parking a lot easier to traverse. That’s perfect for the woodsy outskirts and in-betweens of most mid-Michigan cities.
But the outdoorsy aspect isn’t all the Explorer has to offer. Like a proper, great SUV, this Ford has three-row seats, great storage capacity, and in a pinch, very flexible, moderate towing capacity for your bikes, small boat, or the U-Haul for moving your kid to college. Whatever life throws at you, the Explorer has the space to handle it.
Just as important to you is keeping your beloved passengers safe. When you live in the Birch Run area, you’re toeing that line between rural and urban environments. This means you’re dealing with everything from fellow drivers and reckless deer. To keep everyone in your car as well-protected as possible, your Explorer comes equipped with Ford’s innovative technology to warn and guard you against all road dangers. If ample cargo space and rugged performance is at the top of your must-have list, you'll definitely want to experience the Explorer for yourself, and we can help.

We've Also Got a Great Selection of Pre-Owned Explorer Models

When working with us, we are more than willing and ready to show our customers our full selection of used Ford Explorers. Whatever year or make you’re looking for, we’ll try to match you with your perfect SUV. Depending on what way you lean, you could have almost-new Ford tech and perks for a great discount or a still-reliable, still-relevant used Explorer from a decade ago for an absolute steal.

Everyone deserves a bit more comfort in their budget. Safety is obviously a priority when driving your family around Birch Run, too, so that’s where our Certified Pre-Owned options come in. On our lot, you can find a used car with low mileage, single ownership, and extra protections when you choose a CPO option for even more peace of mind.
Best Way to Shop Your Explorer
At the end of the day, no matter how perfect a car is, financing can be a stressful process. Luckily, we fully understand the concerns that come with this aspect of the car-buying experience.
As your Birch Run neighbors, we get exactly what your day-to-day and costs are like—the local mortgage rates, road conditions, and even your average grocery bill from the local stores. So, let us make this whole process effortless and personal.
Before you even visit our lot, we built our site to make it easy to learn your buying power with our payment calculator, as well as pre-qualify for financing with a reputable bank like Capital One. That way, you don’t have to show up to a meeting with our experts feeling uninformed and unconfident.
Then, when you do come see us, we’ll talk about the ins and outs of your payment options. Trade-in opportunities, credit scores, leases vs loans, and the deals that come with those—we can personalize your contract to whatever you have going on. You’re not just a number to us; you’re a unique person who deserves a payment plan that best suits you.
