Oh wow, that sucks. I was hoping to get a VIN much sooner.
Yeah just looked on the ol Google.. Currently production is slated for May 13th. So in theory we could have a VIN that week or before I think but from my last custom order experience it will be some time.

I guess it’s time to stop thinking about it.
Do you have any plans for upgrades?

Exhaust will happen for sure. Then I will likely get it wrapped and if the FP tune is available that as well.

I’m thinking about a CAI and definitely the exhaust (Thermal R&D) and the FP tune! Hopefully they’ll update the site so I can see if the 2025 is compatible.

Is it me or does it seem like the Build and Price configurator price for a 2025 Explorer ST has increased over the past 2 months?

Wait.. are you guys saying there is a link between supply, demand and inflation? o_O Yeah, I know, first post and talking crap, sorry for that. I'm looking for a '25 to park next to my '18 Fusion Sport. It needs a friend.

Okay I'm glad I wasn't the only person that noticed.

I guess I will just hold off on ordering one until their incentives increase by the same amount as their price did in order to zero each other out.

NICE! I have an 18' Fusion Sport and I have a 25' ST on order as well!

When I ordered mine the day ordering opened for the 25', I am locked in at the order pricing at that time. Glad I ordered so early.

So I was recommending my mom to buy the 2025 Ford Explorer ST as her replacement car but the increase of $5,000 puts the MSRP of the 2025 Ford Explorer ST within $5,000 of the MSRP of the new Lexus GX550 Premium.

She really wants a Lexus. The case for the 2025 Explorer ST was really strong when the MSRP was $55,000 and actual selling price being closer to $50,000.

Good evening everyone. To the 45th day, I just received my first email from Ford, informing me that I’ll be told when my vehicle goes into production. I placed my ST order on March 4th.

Nice, at least you heard something. What color and options did you choose?

Good morning, I chose the Carbonized Gray Metallic, with the black painted roof, 4WD, splash guards, engine block heater, and floor liners.

That’s great news! Hopefully, I’ll hear something too, since mine was placed a week ahead of yours. Fingers crossed.

Call your dealership and have them check. When I checked the online tracker, it looked like the VIN has been available for over a week already.

I chose the splash guards, floor liners, roof crossbars and keypad lock.

I forgot those too, plus I ended up purchasing the safe as well.

Nice. I thought about getting the safe but it looked too small so I didn’t get it.
