New member and ST owner here. Just purchased a 2023 for the wife. Looking forward to learning all about this badass ride from the experienced members here. Been a Mustang guy for the last 14 years with my 2008 Bullitt. Always have liked the Explorer ST's though.

Welcome Aboard!!

I think you will find there are numerous members here who are either current or former MUSTANG owners. We like performance!!!

Hello Everyone,

I am Charlie from the Eastern Panhandle of WV. Right now I am running my ram 2500 back and 4th to commute. I work relief at my job so I am at a different workplace every shift. I am looking at a 2022 ST for commuting and running around to stop running the big truck. I was going to start a thread to see if there is anything I should watch out for looking at used ST's. It has been a pleasure reading the threads on upgrades and such. I appreciate any advice you all can give me.

Thanks

What part of the Eastern Panhandle? I grew up in the Charles Town and Harpers Ferry area. Most of my family is in that area still!

Just purchased a 2026 ST in Metallic Red to match my Ruby Red SHO. It's a replacement for my wife's 2015 Audi Q-7 that someone decided to side swipe when it was parked in front of my house. Insurance decided to total it out. She and I both are happy with it and still trying to learn all its functions.

As you can see, I love my red 2025 also.

How would you compare your SHO performance wise to your new ST?

I strongly believe FORD would have sold more SHO vehicles had FORD not gotten stupid with their "Up pricing" Policy. That same policy helped kill of the "Baby Bird" 2002 to 2005 Thunderbirds also.
