The Explorer lineup at Apple Sport Ford is small but easy to read: Active and ST-Line trucks leaning on the 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder with rear-wheel drive, and Platinum and Tremor builds that arrive with four-wheel drive. Every Explorer listing we checked shows a tow package with a 5,000 lb trailering rating and a third row, so the family-hauler basics are covered no matter which trim you pick.

That drivetrain split is the thing to know before you shop. On this lot the lower trims are the rear-drive ones, and stepping up to Platinum or Tremor is also how you get 4WD. Tremor is the one with the 3.0L EcoBoost V6, skid plates, off-road lights, and a panoramic roof on its listing, while Platinum lists leather seats, a 14-speaker audio system, and skid plates. ST-Line shows seating for seven, where the Platinum and Tremor listings show six.

Both 2026 and 2027 Explorers move through our lot, so the details on a given truck can differ slightly. Use the trim and drivetrain links below to jump straight to what you want, or open a listing to see that exact vehicle's equipment.

Most shoppers on this page are coming from Waco, about a half hour up Highway 6 from our Marlin store. A three-row SUV that handles the I-35 commute during the week and a Saturday at Lake Waco is a purchase worth a short drive, especially when you can start the trade appraisal and test drive scheduling online first.

Buying an Explorer at Apple Sport Ford: Common Questions

Can I order a Explorer if you don't have the trim or drivetrain I want?

Yes. If the trim, color, or option package you want isn't on our lot, we can search other Ford stores or place a factory order in your name. Order timing varies by configuration, and we'll give you a realistic estimate before you commit. Call 254-237-9134 with the build you have in mind.

Which Explorer trims come with four-wheel drive on your lot?

On the Explorers we checked, Platinum and Tremor are four-wheel drive, while Active and ST-Line listings show rear-wheel drive. Drivetrain is listed on every vehicle page, and you can use the 4WD and RWD links above to filter. If you need 4WD on a lower trim, call 254-237-9134 and we will check other stores or a factory order.

What is my current SUV worth toward a Explorer?

You don't have to buy anything to find out. Submit a free trade appraisal and we'll give you a real number you can put toward your Explorer. Trade equity often covers a good share of the down payment, and older or high-mileage vehicles are still worth appraising.

How many people does the Explorer seat?

It depends on the build. Listings we checked show seating for seven on the ST-Line and six on the Active, Platinum, and Tremor, all with a third row. Captain's chairs show up on several trims, so open the specific vehicle page to confirm the seating layout.

Can I finance a Explorer with less-than-perfect credit?

We work with Ford Credit and a range of regional lenders, so we can usually find an option for first-time buyers, commercial buyers, and customers rebuilding credit. Run the numbers with our payment calculator, then submit a secure finance application. It takes a few minutes and doesn't obligate you to anything.

Who services the SUV after I buy it?

We do. Our factory-certified Ford service department, collision center, and parts department are on site in Marlin, using genuine Ford parts. We also offer Ford Pickup & Delivery and mobile service. Schedule service online anytime.
