    How to avoid the brittle valve recall test?

    If it were mine, I wouldn't have those monkeys touch it unless the engine grenades from the valves with normal driving. I'm 100% with you on not having them intentionally abuse your engine. A recall isn't mandatory and no one can make you do it. I STRONGLY suggest you tell them to not do the...

    2020 ST Transmission being fully rebuilt

    Lots of vehicles, dealers are saying there are not trans. rebuild kits for them and that you need a new trans . I'm a little shocked yours is rebuildable yet there should be no reason they shouldn't be.

    81 days at dealer for our 21 ExpST... Well crap, it needs to go back.

    2025 Explorer Ford Digital Experience Towing Application and Trailer Height

    Good question. I get the same message all the time towing with my 25' ST. I just ignore the message but if there is a way to fix the issue, I would like to know as well.

    2026 Order banks open!

    Glad I ordered and received an early 25' ST before the old Ford delete button went into overdrive..

    2026 Order banks open!

    So side window shades are back? ST key Fob is back? Power Steering column adjust is back? etc., etc.. These and more were deleted mid through the 25's. Is everything back for 26'??

    2026 Ford Explorer Tremor

    I said anything could (and apparently has) happened! I'm no longer a part of that project but its still Spanish! Lots of people in the U.S. will think LOBO is something brand new for Ford not knowing its been around for a long time.

    2026 Ford Explorer Tremor

    So, what do I know.. LOBO means Wolf in Spanish. I was only the Senior Program Manager for the OEM Ford F150 AND LOBO Badging program for the 2021+ F150. It would be strange for Ford to bring a LOBO to U.S. while keeping that name. But again, what do I know, anything could happen!

    2026 Ford Explorer Tremor

    LOBO is made for the Spanish market so you won't see a LOBO here.

    2026 Ford Explorer Tremor

    I have wanted to add tow hooks to my 25' ST since I bought it. I would be interested to see if the lower front facia insert and the tow hooks that go through it, would be transferable over to a 25" ST. Paint the lower inset black and either make the tow hooks black or paint them the body color...

    New 2025 Ford Explorer ST

    To each is their own and I don't have any issue how you or anyone else changes their oil. But, you are also adding LOTS of drama and exagerations to the underside oil change process from your post. I don't know what a clipped oil plug is, it takes no tools at all to remove or reinstall the drain...

    New 2025 Ford Explorer ST

    Just realized I typed brain plug instead of drain plug :LOL::ROFLMAO::LOL:. I fixed it!!

    New 2025 Ford Explorer ST

    I've never done an oil extraction. For me, I never saw a need to do it that way. Anyway, I'd be curious to pull the drain plug after an extraction to see how much oil comes out to see if the extraction method gets as much out as just pulling the drain plug.

    When it Rains it pours..

    Most of the cost is labor. Seems to always be that way. Parts are pennies of cost compared to labor cost.

    Disable Auto Start/Stop on 2025 Explorer ST

    I litterally just went through this exact same scenario with ASE & my 25' ST a couple of weeks ago. After the battery disconnect for probabubly an hour, all was fine again after that with the ASE.

    Towing with my 2020

    I have AirL I have AirLift helper airbags and a Traxda lift. It took all the sag of the back end out and I have around 400 lbs. of tongue weight. I don't care for tow mode in heavy hilly or mountain roads. With the GCWR I deal with, there is no benefit to tow mode. All it does is over-rev the...

    Towing with my 2020

    I tow a tandem axle, ATV trailer that is usually at or near the max towing capacity. I did this with my previous 22' ST and now with my 25' ST. All has been good as long as my trailer brakes are working well and I had a brake controller. I recently took a trip from my home state of Michigan to...

    Towing with my 2020

    Does your camper have electric brakes and do you have a brake controller in your ST? If your camper does have electric brakes and you do not have a controller in your ST, you need to get one.

    81 days at dealer for our 21 ExpST... Well crap, it needs to go back.

    What in the F' is wrong with that dealership (and your vehicle). The entire situation you are having to deal with is infuriating..

    Differential Brace & Warranty

    The point of a diff. brace on the affected Explorers is to prevent failure in the first place. If you are worried, you could either get permission from your dealer or remove it if something happens since they are easy bolt-on items. I put mine on my 25' within a day or two of buying the vehicle...
