Abusing an Explorer ST for science

[CareerFiremanGuy]

CareerFiremanGuy. Thanks you for your service. I would rather fight three drunks or a gunfight rather than run into a burning building.

Thank you for your support.

But no thank you about the 3 drunks/gunfight thing!

Fire isn't sentient, doesn't look to get you personally, and doesn't threaten to come to your home and get you and your family.

Glad it's what you wanted to do, because it's sure not what I wanted to do!

 

[CareerFiremanGuy]

True that!!!!! Especially after spending a month in a burn unit when I was younger and dumber.

That's why we're trained with PPP's ("Personal Protective Envelope"): helmet, fire resistant face covering, face piece, turnout coat, bunker pants, gloves & boots!

Sorry to hear about what happened to you when you were younger.

so were just going to excuse this guy (op) driving like a lunatic and ruining a perfectly good explorer?

We are.

Who are you to pass judgement otherwise? Asking for a friend….

It's his vehicle, he paid for it.

He can legally do whatever he wants to with it .

Who's your friend? Asking for myself. (lol, jk)

Thanks man. Nice to have a little support for sure.

I knew I liked firemen. If not for their dedication and bravery, than (then?) for their poignant commentary.

Hope everyone has a fantastic day.

also to the admins of this forum why is it so difficult to multi-quote posts? I haven't had an issue multi-quoting posts since NASIOC in 2005. Are you wanting everyone to move to a Discord server rather than a website?

 

[CareerFiremanGuy]

Hahaha. You must be one of those “the election was stolen” guys. Bless your heart.

You must be one of those "I smoke too much dope in my basement to know that the election was stolen" guys. Bless your Commie heart.

... I knew I liked firemen. If not for their dedication and bravery, than (then?) for their poignant commentary ...

Well, don't be too complimenting! We First Responders like to call guys like you "job security."

Hopefully this gives y'all a little more confidence in your purchases ...

To Sstockss:

In discussing the rear bolt shear, you replied that your rear sub frame was the 1 bolt (example photo below):



But boosted_st said the matte finish on your steering wheel/dash indicates a 2020 model which means you may have the 2 bolt rear (example photo below):



Please clarify. Thanks.

 

[CareerFiremanGuy]

Yo, Sstockss. You out there?

We just need clarification that your 2020 ST is in fact a one bolt rear per your previous reply.

Thanks.

You have been told this already. He has a '20 and it will have the 4 bolt design.

Okay, Sstockss hasn't responded and since there have been no new comments since my 6/21 post we'll just have to conclude he has a 1/3 bolt.

All the better!

When you block someone who doesn't agree with you, you end up missing valuable information and posting the same self-serving nonsense over and over. See @Sstockss post as I listed- go to his last response in the post.

Hey guys. Mfg year of 2019 and I got a recall notice for the bolt failure. Not sure about the steering wheel trim comment but it most certainly didn't have two bolts in the bottom. No drivetrain issues in ~50k miles but exploder is gone and replaced with a bronco.

Okay, thank you for responding. A manufacturing date of 2019 means you have a 2020 with the 1/3 bolts. Until now, I thought all 2020's were 2/4 bolts. Ha!

Well, good luck with your Bronco.

That was pretty awesome, thank you for your sacrifices and contributions to scientific discovery
