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.

Man i hope im not the only one but im not like the new wheels! but hey those that have gotten theres congrates and fingers crossed they have worked out the demons the 20-24s have had?
I agree, not really a fan of the new wheels.
We were looking at a Red metallic 2025 sitting on a car lot near us and I said to my wife that her black wheels on her current 2023 ST will definitely get put on this new 2025 and the dealership can take the 25 wheels and put them on the 23.
Salesman said it wouldn’t be an issue to swap them.

I think the new wheels will take us all time to get use to. It would have been nicer if Ford would have made the new wheels optional to be black or the new magnetite grey/silver color. I personally wouldn't want to go back to a previous style rim on a new vehicle but that is of couse personal preference. I could see my rims on my 25' getting refinished to black someday.

In hand yesterday, my first ST! Comfy, but it's definitely got some oomph--nice option joining my all-Ford garage. This color is awesome in person.

Does anyone know if you can track the location after its confirmed shipped? My order status shows shipped on 8/19, but I am wondering how accurate that is, and if there's a way to find out where it is in route.

Ford marketing and your dealership can track the vehicle once it ships.

Not sure if this is worthy of a whole new thread but Im really interested in some feedback from new owners on QC and fit and finish. Especially owners of previous Explorer STs who can do a comparison.

I relayed in a previous thread or two all of the build quality issues I had when I received my brand new 2022 ST. My opinion on the 25' ST is somewhat of an armchair opinion. I say that because I litterally have not driven it a single time since bringing it home from the dealership on 7/29. It has been parked in my driveway in the same spot since then. Now, I've added lots of accessories to it and have toyed around with it quite a bit since receiving it. So, minus being able to relay any build quality related to the physical driving other than my ride home from the dealership which had no issues, I have not noticed any issues related to the build. We all know that adding lots of accessories allows us to get up close and personal to finite details of the vehicle. For me, so far so good!

Definitely. I’ve done Raptor Assault and Mach 1 Track Attack. The Ford Performance experiences are top notch and I can’t wait for ST XP!

Just watched yootoob video with the new 2025. Theres not much different other than interior trim, dash & condole. Looks like everything other than radio is controlled through the large landscape touchscreen which is a hard fail for me. Oh yeah, it had the 1-bolt rear subframe do Ford has decided its fine with the new bushing&bolt. Another hard fail. Oh well , hope you folks like it…
