Ford- America's largest selling import. Most of the parts are made in Canada.
Aside from that, I had a 1990 Tempo which served me long and well, and I presently have a 2000 Focus, 80000 miles, and I haven't had to do anything outside of normal maintenance.
Ford , at one time, had a terrible image, but they have come a long way since. May your Explorer serve you well for a long, long time. Take care of it and it will.
