    2025 Ford Explorer Order Guide

    I'll make it easy and post it here - We're all in the same boat, give or take a little on pricing anyway. I paid exactly $61K even, with X-plan, out the door for it. The price included Michigan 6% sales tax, new license plate and any & all additional fees.

    2025 Ford Explorer Order Guide

    Picked up the 25' ST today. I bought if from another dealer that is close to me, this one didn't arrive with a factory door dent. I ended up paying $700 more for this one due to Ford issues I bitrched about in earlier posts. I've already added an AFE, CAI, a UPR dual valve oil catch can, and...

    2025 Ford Explorer Order Guide

    I haven't seen the dent but I know it is in the bottom stamped form line / style line of the door. The dealer has offered to swap out the entire door skin or replace the entired door. Those are both way worse and way more intrusive fixes than using filler and repainting the door. I had to...

    2025 Ford Explorer Order Guide

    Update to my saga. I posted above from yesterday. IT's BEEN A COMPLETE SHIT SHOW. I have spent most of my day on the phone with Ford Motor direct and with multiple dealers. Since I was one of the first people to place my ST order when the public order bank opened on 2/2/24, my ST pricing was...

    2025 Ford Explorer Order Guide

    So.. my dealer called me today to let me know that my 25' showed up that has been on order since 2/2/24. Then he proceeded to tell me it arrived with a dent in the door. The car hauler notified them that it was like that from the stockyard. This is a no go from me. I will not accept a brand new...

    Rear differential noise on decel

    @ 101K Miles you change the ring, the pinion and the pinion bearing. Might as well change the wheel bearings and seals while its all being worked on. If you have never worked on differential ring and pinions and set the backlash before or don't have someone working with you that has, DON'T DO IT...

    Towing w/ the ST

    You may be right. I haven't had my 22' since I traded it in last year and my 25' isn't here yet. I remember with my 22' that either putting it in park, or, only whenever I shut if off, I had to put it back into tow mode if I was towing each time.

    Towing w/ the ST

    Your empty trailer alone is more than 1/3 of the towing capacity of your Explorer. Put it in tow mode the entire time you are towing your trailer and anything on it and leave it in tow mode. In-case you don't already know, you will need to put it back in tow mode anytime you put it back in park.

    Those felt undercarriage panels

    My thoughts are that they are there for better aerodynamics which helps fuel mileage. The added bonus is that they keep things they are covering pretty clean as well. I've never had much issue with cleaning them. I carefully pressure wash them - don't be an idiot, use a fan pattern or wide...

    Transmission woes

    Complete bull$hit excuse the dealer gave you. As soon as the wrench light came back on, that was proof it wasn't fixed. Nothing is learning or calibrating anything to make the wrench light come on. Just another incompetent dealer.

    2025 ST Deliveries?

    Mine has been showing "In Production" for 2-weeks now.. WTH.

    2025 ST Deliveries?

    You should be locked into the price at time of order and it may go down from there if new incentives come out between order and delivery dates. I've never seen it any different unless you have a really, really, really bad dealer.

    2025 ST Deliveries?

    This is such bull $hit. So tired of Ford on the holdbacks and quality issues, and lack of parts..

    Ford's Plan for Fixing Quality - CEO Reponds

    My previous brand new Explorer ST was a 2022 model year. Like others, I had to find the issues the factory and dealer did not. Right off the bat I saw a drip in the paint on one of the front fenders, the wiring harness for the tow lights wasn't ever attached correctly and was lying directly on...

    Mechanical Boost Gauge

    Has anyone mounted a mechanical boost gauge in their 21' + ST? Any pic's from anyone? I'm more than likely going to add one (Autometer) to the 2025 I have on order. I'm well aware of the P3 digital gauge but I'm tired of electrical $hit that costs a lot and tends to go to hell well ahead of...
