Hello, all.
I am loving the 2020 ST I bought on 12/15/23. This is my first Explorer. I had ordered a '23, but Ford didn't get it built before they shut the line down to start on the '24s. So, the dealer put me in for a '24. I came across an article about the '25 Explorers getting a "refresh" and possibly some new options, set to be released in April. This had me concerned about my ordered '24 coming in January or February, and 2-3 months later it would already be 1 model year old. So, I abandoned the whole thing when I found a Rapid Red 2020 loaded with literally every option (including the 3-seat 2nd row that I wanted, but is almost impossible to find) with only 16,xxx miles and in pristine condition. I am sooo happy with my purchase, and saved over $30,000 compared to trading in my SHO for the new ST. (Part of that price difference is from selling my SHO for $16k, instead of only getting $11k for trade-in.) Anyway, that's a little of my recent history. Now it's time to read up on the ST!
