Heya! I'm new here too and just traded in my black on grey 2016 Flex Limited for a black on black 2024 Explorer ST last week.
Candidly: I am very happy with the ST but I miss the Flex a little. When I saw the dealer listing pop up for the Flex I traded I felt almost like I had abandoned a beloved pet at the pound! It's silly. I know it takes time to get used to a new ride after 8 years.
Anyway, very happy to be here and I'm appreciating everyone's posts, Not even 600 miles on the OD and the ST already has that 2nd row rattle at the base where the seats are installed. Thanks to y'all: at least I know what it is and how to fix it. Thanks everybody for your contributions!!
