2025 Exp ST, 2087 total miles since January 2025: Primarily driven around town in SPORT Mode except once I am on freeway road trips, cruising speed limit +5mph to Bay Area Although, I do particularly like approaching freeway onramps as fast I can safely (pending traffic) Only Performance...

@I Bleed Ford Blue: @I Bleed Ford Blue: Yes I agree on using OEM FORD stuff. Silver powder coat would also work great with certain body color types like white, black or the red ST's.

@theotherdave: Sounds like you have the exact ST that I thought I was buying when I got my 2025 Explorer ST this past January. Unfortunately, it was a "Job 2" build on December 5, 2024. I'm figuring FORD just needed to lighten up these dudes a little so that is why they unceremoniously...

Whatever it is, it looks gorgeous!!! Congrats to you for finding such a jewel. My ST is red only because it is the first non-black painted 2025 ST to come to Northern Calif/Sacramento area that did NOT have the Sun and Sound package. I was willing to take any of the other 2025 colors. Your...

@Mr.c52811: Welcome Aboard! Looks like it is in great condition; excellent find.

@jeffreybehr: I see you like red cars; I know your pain, (4) four of my Ford vehicles have been red.

Welcome Aboard! Your Lovely Wife is very lucky to have you!!

Welcome Aboard! Yes, these dudes are cat quick right out of the box with no tinkering. I cannot imagine the improvement once they have been "modded out" with all the performance stuft available today.

Welcome Aboard!

@KCM: I consider your family Ford Recall Record to be very good to excellent. With the (4) four Ford Mustangs I have owned, every single vehicle had at least one if not 2 recalls during my ownership. One recall was for the airbags issues, 2 times it was for separate camera issues (and yes, you...

@wifeys-ST: I take it Ford did not help you with this problem. It is great that you are mechanically savvy enough to triage and ultimately fix the problem before it became a bigger concern. Personally, I guess it just rubs me wrong that I unknowingly bought a watered down Explorer ST (pretty...

Agreed!! There is now a notation on every one of our individual repair orders at Toyota signifying that a Technician has physically checked the floor mats as part of the multipoint inspection. .

Agreed!!! I remember hearing about the floormats (Toyota changed out all of our floormats although none of our originals were involved in the issue) and the outsourced Taconsha Air Bag issues but don't remember the Tundra story. Let's both hope we don't end up talking about any more future...

Let's put this all into perspective; my wife has had (4) four Toyota vehicles: new 2008 Camry XLE Hybrid, new 2015 Avalon Limited Hybrid, 2005 Prius from her parents estate and a new 2025 Highlander Platinum Hybrid since 2008. Her grand total of recall notices for all (4) cars during that...

@Gadgtfreek: Ford's shift to "Job 2" was so crazy they somehow forgot to tell the Dealers about how radical it was. When I became aware of the many issues in February 2025 (weeks after my 15 January purchase), I called my Sales Guy and the Dealership ended up calling Detroit for the answers. I...

@Gadgtfreek: I sure hope so for you. Mine is part of that infamous "Job 2" build (where they unceremoniously striped off a bunch of ST staples), actual date 8 Dec 2024. I am curious as to how far wide spread this issue will be. But isn't is interesting how many different/separate areas it...

Today, I received my first recall notice for my Explorer ST. This recall covers the "electronic components of the printed circuit board of the Body Control Module C (BCMC) that MAY have been improperly soldered. As a result, when a trailer is connected to the vehicle and the vehicle's trailer...
