Two black ST badges, a nice cordless phone charger and several small items in a really nice backpack

I attended the ST school in NC last fall. I honestly haven't had that much fun with some else's car since 1968, when the Police Department handed me the keys to a 440 Hemi powered Dodge sedan.

They say it's a one time use thing and you can buy a new one from your dealer. At the very least let it air dry completely before you put it back.

My previous Explorer had a sun roof and the grand kids loved it. When I told them that I had bought a new one they told me that if it didn't have a sun roof I was fired. I'm not sure they can do that, but why take the chance.

In order to add fuel from a portable can you need a special funnel that opens the capless gas fill. I comes mounted somewhere near the spare tire.

The date on the window sticker is supposed to be the date it was printed. The one on the B pillar is supposed to be the actual manufacture date.

Twenty years in Bayonne. Have now been retired in South Carolina for 7 years.

I couldn't get mine to program by using the remotes alone. Once I used the "learn" button on the opened itself it was easy.

Well, the guy did say "Drive it like a rental."

You get several runs at the pylon course. I did one run "old school", actually got it to broadslide the U turn. Slower than the other times, but so much fun!

I'm sure about that. Next time I'll have it taken to them without letting anyone start it. Hopefully seeing it dead will help them diagnose it.

I got it back this afternoon. The report said the found, and cleared, multiple battery related faults, but the battery tested fine. The fact that the tow truck operator got it started with a good jump made me think. I took the Weego jumper out of my boat and will carry it in the ST just in case.

At Asheville when they gave us our cars for the day the guy said: "Drive it like it's a rental".

My wife isn't a "car person". She couldn't care what she rides in. Fancy or plain, as long as it gets her there. When we walked into the Ford dealer "our" RIch Copper Metallic ST was sitting there. She looked at it and very loudly said "YES". The look on the salesmans face was priceless.

As part of the Explorer Experience in Asheville last fall we got to do some easy off road driving. It seemed to handle it very well, although nothing like my Jeep Wrangler.

I've heard similar stories. If they don't find anything in the morning I think I'll argue for a new battery. It doesn't look like one you could replace at just any service station.

The service dept checked the battery and found it to be okay. Even the tow truck driver said the same. But you're right, voltage problems can mess with modern electronics.

I hope so too. I haven't been to the service department before, other than for routine service. I was impressed with them. They actually looked at it as it came off the flatbed. I wish they had found something, but I understand the problem with diagnosing an intermittent problem.

The service department says it is working perfectly. I told them to keep it overnight and try again. I would hate to take it home and have this happen again.

Build date 12/04/19. We bought it on February 1, 2020.
