My wife and I have been through about 11 cars in the last 10 years. While the B&O with sub isn't the best, it ain't the worst by a long shot. On my 2019 PP2 Mustang, I went in and spent $4000 on JL everything. Speaker replacements included adding the preformed sub box in the trunk with an RF...

First road trip in the new ride — took it from 200 to 500 miles on the odometer lol! Super comfortable and drives great. Averaged 22.5 MPG. Gave BlueCruise a try for about an hour — pretty neat tech, though I doubt I’ll subscribe. The regular adaptive cruise with lane-keep assist that nudges you...

I'm pretty sure I just ordered the entire FOB from a dealer ($58). It wasn't just the plate. Should get it on Tuesday.

I like the AGM, but one of them in the wife's Lincoln went at 37k miles. Kinda BS. But it is nice how reliably they power all of the goodies in these things, and their life should generally be longer. That's not a bad price. A local shop here sells AGMs for about that, and it's the US company...

That is some interesting stuff. I will say that this is my 4th Ecoboost engine, but my first Explorer ST. Also, my 3rd ST. I love these things, and I change the oil every 5K miles regardless with full synthetic.

I can't wait to put my 2.5" Thermal on next week. Don't want to get too wild with noise.

Added the weather techs front and back, and removed the front plate holder.

I just wanted to comment and say thank you on this one. My Edge STs never would go into 8th gear in Sport mode, but tinkering around showed me that I thought the Explorer does go into 10th. Never thought of hitting the manual button... DOH! Anyway, it behaves like my Mustang GT in Sport with...

I know two guys at the local dealer where I get my Fords. When buying this one, and paying $365 extra for the keypad, it appears Ford is bringing them back for 2026 as a factory option. I get some removals, but don't let the bean counters do everything. This was almost a $60k car, and you...

Just came here to complain lol. Ordering the back plate...

Crazy. So they mess with that and tunes with OTA updates. I'd turn them off if this thing didn't have the new Ford Experience stuff. But it's late in 2025, maybe they are done with those types of updates.

Added this little device when I got home today. Very easy. No more remembering to press that dumb button.

Thanks, that is what I was thinking.

I'm 48. No tickets in over 20 years, and $250 deductibles and max payout coverages, as well as 30-day rental. I'm not mad at $140 a month on this car.

OK. And I do see that as an option, but I feel I will want to update at some point, considering these have the new Ford experience SW. Just trying to get an idea of the size of the can of worms. 8 oz, or 16 oz lol.

I have a quick question. I'm typically someone who tunes my vehicles, so I plan to do the same with my new ST after it has accumulated several thousand miles. ZFG is definitely at the top of my list for tuning options. However, I want to confirm that Ford sometimes rolls back vehicles to stock...

https://www.explorerst.org/threads/exhaust-leaks-from-flex-pipes-and-catalytic-converter-57k-miles.9247/ I have a thermal 2.5" coming, and plan on keeping this thing a good while. So hopefully the concern is removed.

Thats crazy.

Tint on the front doors of the car and a windshield visor. Bumper plugs to replace the tag mount are next. I need to get my tag today; I've finally received the dealer paperwork. Also added the armrest cubby tray this weekend.

Crazy how that works — my wife swapped her Lincoln Nautilus for a Porsche Macan and the insurance jumped $50 a month. Everything about a Porsche says “expensive.” It’s a blast to drive, but I still prefer cruising in the new, comfy ST.
