    First Snow Experience

    I have the Scorpions now and was OK on some old ice but didn't get real snow. Will look at the AS4s for replacement! Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    How do the Michelins compare in the dry? Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    Protect Seat from Holstered Pistol?

    Concealed, but I lift my garments when I sit down for both accessibility and to save my clothes. Guess it doesn't help my ST! I like the extra jacket idea but also sounds like extra work [emoji13] Short term and when I am carrying more than normal keeping a jacket handy would work. Dennis...

    Protect Seat from Holstered Pistol?

    I can rotate a bit but it probably has to do more with my body style and seating position. Also the side bolsters are much more pronounced than in any other vehicle I have owned. Probably not going to change my carry method after 25+ years of evolving my setup [emoji12] I ordered some cheap...

    Protect Seat from Holstered Pistol?

    So my pistol on one side and mag/light in the other side are digging into my seat bolsters and causing wear... My old 4Runner didn't have as much support. Any ideas to protect the seat leather? Removable patch? Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    I took a heat gun to mine and spread out the tray sides/tabs to hold better. I would still like an upgraded one! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    SYNC Build 21194 Is Released by Ford

    Does the SYNC update only control the infotainment system? Mine updated last night and I could swear that in Sport mode it doesn't hold the low gear as long when accelerating a bit hard and you let the gas go... Dennis Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    New Explorer ST on off-road

    Would love to hear details! I am used to my 2010 4Runner and worried a bit about clearing the center hump on rutted dirt roads... Our ST therotically only has 0.5" less clearance but it feels a lot lower. Nice pic! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    I had the same annoyance for months and finally replaced them with RainX silicone blades. Mostly because they were the most expensive ones at the store and I like the word silicone. Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    Random Chimes...

    So now a couple times my rear hatch has chimed and popped open after setting my parking brake... That worried me so I tried hitting the open button on the dash and with my keys when the car was in R/N/D... It chimed with no indication of anything and luckily no trunk opening. I kept hitting my...

    First Snow Experience

    Exactly the insight I was looking for... I have been thru like 5 gens of 4wd systems since 1990 with frequent skiing and off road trips. Now that I'm old all the off roading I'm doing is to the range, but I'm still skiing! Also, I'm probably just jealous of my buddy's Haakapellitas on his...

    First Snow Experience

    So our STs on stock 21" Pirellis would have no problems with an occasional trip to a ski resort? Especially with chains as backup? I am used to a 4Runner with KO2s. It was fine for my 99.8% time on-road and great for my .2% time off road/skiing. But now my ST is awesome on the road and...

    Front Runner Slim line 2 Roof rack

    What tire/wheel combo is that? Do you have the street pack brakes? Do you feel any major performance loss with the AT tires? I came from a 4Runner and miss my AT KO2s... Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    How to clean/treat dashboard?

    What do you recommend for the seats? Are the seats actually leather? Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    How to clean/treat dashboard?

    Certain areas of the black dash on my ST seems to get discoloring or like a dry looking swipe when I wipe it with a microfiber towel... What product should I use to treat the dash to keep it looking normal? Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    Driving in snow report

    Thanks for the detailed info! I can't justify snow tires for a couple ski trips a year but your experience puts my mind at ease as I'm used to decent AT tires. I hope to find something a bit more all-season for my next set but I admit I am getting used to good street tires for my 99% use case...

    Driving in snow report

    Would you say the stock Pirelli zeros are good enough for very occasional ski trips? For reference I am used to driving with BF Goodrich All Terrain KOs on my previous 4Runner. Thanks! Dennis. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

    Random Chimes...

    About once every couple weeks now while driving, my ST starts chiming with no other visual notifications on the dash or screen. It goes away after like 10 seconds but I'm always confused as there is nothing special happening as I'm mostly driving normally around town. Dennis. Sent from my...

    Rear 12V Power Point?

    Where does a car generate a 12 Volt Alternating Current "AC" power line? This fuse chart shows the following power points and inverter. I know on my ST there's a 110AC plug in back of the middle console for the rear seats. https://fuse-box.info/ford/ford-explorer-u625-2020-fuses-and-relays 33...

    Getting irritated with some of the driver assist functions

    I am guessing you mean there SHOULD be an adjustment but there isn't one, as one isn't mentioned in the manual. The manual also says if you are going less than a certain (1.7?) MPH it won't kick in but I was inching by the blocking car and it still kicked in pretty hard... Maybe my idea of slow...
