    New guy, being delivered this week

    South Carolina here. Welcome. The Driving Experience is well worth the time. I come from a sort of high performance background too, raced sports cars years ago and have owned several performance street machines. When someone offers to let you drive their ST and abuse it, it's well worth the time...

    SYNC Build 21194 Is Released by Ford

    I started the download using my WiFi. When I realized it was going to take a while I shut it off and went on to other things. An hour or so later I started it up and the download was complete and installing.

    Sync 3.4 Update (Build 21020) Now Available on the Owner Site

    Mine is NA 2 20 also. I didn't notice what it was earlier, but the main map screen has changed and several of the roads have been updated.

    Sync 3.4 Update (Build 21020) Now Available on the Owner Site

    Going against my better judgement I downloaded 21194 today. By the way, it downloads without the vehicle running, or even being turned on, as long as it can get a WiFi signal. Download and install took about 2 hours, but when I tried it I now have all the Sirius features that have been missing...

    New Carbonized Grey ST

    Anderson S C here. Welcome. We were getting out of the ST at a restaurant last year and a middle aged gentleman looked at me and said: "It's nice that the department lets you use it off duty". He didn't seem to be sarcastic, just conversational.

    Oil consumption? Problem?

    Mine had about 14000 miles now, and almost 5000 since the last oil change. It finally used about a half quart when I checked it yesterday. But, we're in the hot weather season and I do have a problem with my right foot on the skinny pedal, so I'm not complaining.

    Ford Performance Parts for 2020 Explorer ST

    Public Service Announcement: Never clean your gun while driving fast. You might drop one of those small parts and have to slow down in order to find it.

    Back-up Camera Issues

    My camera fails like that occasionally. I've figured out it's actually a warning that there's something behind me I could back into.

    Getting irritated with some of the driver assist functions

    I've had the ST brake itself while backing into my garage so any times that I'm surprised when it doesn't. And then the other day, while backing out of a car wash lane after they had to close suddenly, it saved m from backing into a concrete post. So I guess I can put up with the inconvenience.

    Hi from NE Florida (Jax)

    The ST Experience at Biltmore includes a self guided tout of the estate. She can do that while you have fun, or she can go with you and you take another day and see the estate. My wife isn't a car person either, but she ended up loving te things we did with the ST.

    EXPLORER ST DRIVING SCHOOL REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

    I think if you were booked and had to cancel because of the pandemic they will reschedule you. If you just waited a year you may be out of luck.

    Post your favorite pic...it’s a show off thread.

    Finally, someone who understands what color an ST should be. Rich Copper is the best color they offer.

    35/30/35 versus 2nd row captain seats

    We have the 2nd row Captains Chairs. Would have bought one with the bench for the grand kids if there had been one available. Turns out, even when we're not full the grand kids prefer to ride in the third row.

    What race leagues do you enjoy?

    A hundred or so years ago I raced a Corvette in SCCA road racing and a Jaguar XK120 in the SCODA oval track races. . Now, I like watching NASCAR and one day want to try a few laps in their drive-it-yourself program.

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    When we did Asheville last fall they let you try the self parking feature using their cars.

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    I've never trusted the system. It seems to back into the space a little too fast. At the ST Esperince they showed us how to use it and let us play with one of their cars. It works, but I still feel it backs up too fast.

    Is this possible?

    Somewhere in the settings is an "on/off" setting for the speed warning. I don't remember exactly where, but it is there.
