    2025 Ford Explorer Prices Paid

    The MSRP on mine was 62,235. All I added was the keypad on the door and wheel locks and the rugged 2 row floor mats. Which I was disappointed with. They are thin and flimsy. Put my old 2020,s bought off eBay and have more structure to them. So now the 2 rows of Matt's are in garage.

    2025 ST Deliveries?

    I ordered on 4/15 and just picked up 8/14. I traded in my 2020 st. The new one just seems more compact even though the lengths are the same. No more vertical display. Thank God. Can not wait for the ford tune to be out.

    2025 ST

    Just picked mine up today. Very nice but it seems they build them with cheaper materials than my 2020.

    Received private off just by calling Ford.

    My 2025 ST is in production. The dealer was not giving me the VIN number. So i called Ford marketing. They gave me the VIN and website where i can track it. Then the agent put me on hold and said we have a private offer for you. I wrote down the number. Then the dealer just told me i get...

    Extended Warranty - Yes or No

    To me it was a no brainer. With all the electronics etc. I was offered one for less than 1300 bucks through Ziegler and it's a Ford gold esp plan. 100 dollar deductible. Gets me a loaner car plus roadside assistance with it. My piece of mind. That if something breaks. Such as moon roof or any...

    Oil filter housing stem disintegrated

    My 2020 ST, threw a P0524 code. Checked oil pressure sensor for leaks. It was not that. However the sensor did not have any Teflon on the threads. So while I had it out. I put some on and re-installed. Next I checked the oil filter. Only to find out that the middle stem that goes through the...

    2020 ST P0524 code Low oil pressure

    Answering my own question. Oil pressure sensor is under the oil filter housing. Have to take the air cleaner off. Then it can be taken off with a 24mm wrench.

    2020 ST P0524 code Low oil pressure

    My ST only has 20k miles and I just got the P0524 code. Low oil pressure. Thankful that I bought the cheap extended warranty as my 3 year warranty is up by 3 months. Does anyone know where the oil pressure sensor is on this engine is located? Or perhaps it's worth taking to the dealer to have...

    I've got a Check Engine Light

    The P0496 just popped up in my ST and it only has 19,700 miles on it. Good thing is, my three years is up this June. Considering the location. Maybe it is easier to drop it off and let them do it. However, I may attempt it. I hate leaving my baby at the dealership. The last time she was there...
