Re: [Ford Explorer Sport] Hi all. I just got a 97 Explorer Sport 2dr. Love it!

I think it is the 4.0 ohc. Haven't checked gas mileage yet but was
told around 21 on the highway. I have arthritis in my hands and the
gas cap with the snap function is a bit difficult for me to open and
close, but that is only minor. Really a neat rig and fun to drive.
