'Explorer' written without a trim badge under it indicates XLS trim. Also the gray piece above the *hatch* handle is 2003+. All 2002 models have a body colored *hatch* handle; even on the XLS and examples are below. This is a 2003-2004 base model. Although I suspect it is a 2003 only as I cannot see a door badge present. Here are 2002 XLS models: http://gtcarlot.com/colors/car/6379359-5.html http://gtcarlot.com/colors/car/27325335-6.html http://gtcarlot.com/colors/car/46183584-7.html http://gtcarlot.com/colors/car/72766548-6.html Note every one of the 2002 XLS have the trim level below the badge. In 2003 when Ford introduced as a separate trim level the XLS Sport that is when the badge disappears on the tail gate for base XLS models. In 2002 the XLS could have the Sport package applied but since we add packages to extra information this detail really does not phase us it just makes it more confusing narrowing these down ![]() Edit: wanted to specify the hatch handle is what changes color. -- Last edit: 2019-07-18 19:48:31 |
