If you are an adventurous person who must have a vehicle that can keep up with your lifestyle, then the 2012 Ford Explorer XLT is a great option. Not only is it fitted with some great basic elements, but it can also be customized with enhancements to make every trip memorable.
Riding on 18-inch cast-aluminum wheels, the XLT is a mid-level trim that comes with automatic headlights and fog lamps. These provided optimized visibility at night and during inclement weather. Projecting beams at a downward angle to illuminate the path beneath the mist, you won’t have to worry about hitting a pothole on a rugged trail.
If your SUV is equipped with any of the Rapid Spec options, it will also come with a review camera. While this feature is standard in new models, it was a luxury in 2012. Other exterior possibilities can include a dual-pane sunroof, a power liftgate, and even a tow package to make hauling easier.
For people who like to explore rivers, a kayak carrier may be just what you need. This folding-style unit fits with factory-installed roof rails or crossbars. The kit is all-inclusive, and the mount itself can be folded away when it’s not in use.
