Just bought my new 2025 Ford Explorer ST (central Virginia)

[bryanray]

Hello everyone......thank you for having me. My name is Bryan Ray and I live in Chesterfield County, VA, which is basically the southside of Richmond, VA in the center part of the state. I just bought a brand new 2025 Ford Explorer ST yesterday. I did a fair amount of research and knew exactly what I wanted. Mine is the Rapid Red Metallic with tinted clearcoat. While I think there may be a few very minor options that this car doesn’t have (like the outside keyless entry keypad), it does seem to have just about everything else, including the power sunroof and upgraded B & O sound system, 4WD and almost everything power and computerized that you can get. I think the Ford window sticker total MSRP was $62,355. Luckily, I got a damn good deal and paid a fair amount less........but, needless to say, the car is fully loaded. My vehicle has a total of 70 miles on it right now, so I've just started my ST journey. But, I'm loving everything about it so far. I'm 67 years old and I have always been a Ford man. Just as a side note, my other toys include a 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback with the optional S-code 390 4V with 4 speed trans. I also have a 1966 Ford Mustang fastback with the 289 V8 and auto trans. I also own a 1995 Lincoln Continental, a 1997 Lincoln Town Car and two old F series Ford trucks. So, this is, by no means, my first Ford.......but, it's the most excited that I've been about one in a long time. I'm sure glad to find this forum!!
