2023 Explorer ST

Hi all, I'm Chris from the Pacific Northwest and I just got my 2023 Explorer ST (401a) a few days ago. Mine wasn't subject to the recall. While I was waiting form mine to arrive, I've been reading a lot of your posts. Everyone's enthusiasm has been contagious. This is my third Explorer, but first ST. I'm not sure what to mod first. But you guys have given me a bunch of ideas. I'm considering doing the audio first since I really like music. Well, anyway, I'm glad to be part of the forum and looking forward sharing as well as learning from you guys. This vehicle is FUN to drive! Oh, has anyone done a ceramic coating yet? Images to follow shortly.

Isn't that the truth! Many nights awake thinking of the day I would take delivery! Thanks for welcoming me in to the forum.

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the forum.
Yes on the ceramic coating. Do it on all my vehicles.
