We rented a 2022 Ford Explorer about a month ago with 1800 miles on it from Hertz at Sky Harbor so we could help move our son .

I have to say it was spacious enough for the shelves and cabinets we had to move and had the power to properly negotiate the I-10 and inner city traffic. Cabin noise was minimal.

The turn radius was good and the visibility was enhanced by the various cameras. With the many sensors, situational awareness was enhanced as well.

I am not a 'Ford' fan but I have to say this Explorer was impressive.
 
How far did you drive? Did you track the MPG? Our neighbor has a 20 or 21, the last year of the old body style and says the MPG is terrible
 
The previous body style ended with the 2019. Current body style is 2020+

If it had the 3.3 v6, you had a hybrid. Base engine is a 2.3 4cyl ecoboost, upper trims get the 3.0l v6, and the hybrid gets the 3.3.

With the 2.3, we are averaging 21.5 mpg, which leaves the mileage of the 07 explorer with 4.6 V8 in the dust (14.5 mpg)
