Welcome to the Explorer ST Forum, please post an introduction

[Blue Beast]

Purchased 2023 Explorer ST in white back in March. Great SUV so far, really enjoying it. Next week is my chance at the ST Experience in Asheville, NC. Looks to be a great time!

Looking forward to following the forums for all information Explorer.

Thanks for info read so far!

New here, to the forum. I am the manager of a large detail shop in Chattanooga, Tn; Detail Depot. My question is: are there pre-cut striping kits for a 2023 Ford Explorer ST? More specifically a striping pattern just like on the Blue Beast. Thank you. Cool forum!

Hello everyone! My name is Steve and I have been perusing the forum for quite some time, decided it's finally time to show some face and introduce myself. Always been a big Ford guy (Born and raised in Michigan initially and lots of family involved with Ford Motor Company early on) so when they announced the ST trim coming to the Explorer family especially as a rwd based platform I got really excited... Fast forward to March 2023 I am about to make a big change and move from Southeast FL after Hurricane Ian to the Savannah, GA area taking a promotion to launch my third Amazon site. Prior to this I had been searching far and wide for a brand new ST, there were lots of used options out there, but nothing seemed worth the price to me at that point in time. Started looking into dealers in the Savannah area and found one that had a beautiful, brand new Star White 2023 ST still on the lot. Contacted the dealer, found out the buyer backed out of the deal and I slid in. Drove about 7 hours from FL to pick it up and drive it back that same weekend. Since then I have fallen even more in love with the car and this platform. Seeing all the post in the FB groups and on this forum is incredible and watching it grow from where it began to where it is now has been so enjoyable. I am very much looking forward to continuing to see the progress on this platform and am so excited to be involved in a great community.

Thanks to all that post and offer help to others, this is how we create growth and get people involved in the community who might not otherwise be interested just based on stigmas or stereotypes of the "car world." I hope to see as many of you out there as possible, let's have some fun!

Hello and welcome to Explorer ST Forum, the premier community for Explorer ST owners from around the world. Please take a moment and post your introduction and let us know a little bit about yourselves.

Hello everyone. My name is Patrick Mcclusk and I am the owner of a 2021 black Explorer ST. We’ve owned the vehicle since day one. I absolutely love it. Amazing wagon. I’m a locomotive engineer for one of the 5 class 1 railroads in the lower 48. The Black Beauty is my wife’s vehicle mainly. She totally freaks out every time I get behind the wheel. Hahahaha. I’m very glad to have found this forum and thank you.

Welcome! We also love our 2021 Carbonized Gray ST, it's mainly my wifes daily driver but she gave me full rights for all the upgrades!

Thank you. I wish my wife would do that. That color is gorgeous. Wasn’t one available when we bought ours. At least not way down here.

Careful with that. My wife told me the same when we bought it and since reneged on that statement. I am afraid to do anything else to her ST as she has threated to go trade it in on something else...lol. I'll wait until the 2024 Lexus GX come out to do some more upgrades. I'll keep the ST.

LOL! Yeah when I did the Gibson exaust she didn't seem too thrilled, but she's since warmed up to it. Sometimes when I accelerate she grins and says 'Listen to your girl!'. Of course I have to respond with 'you're my only girl'! But I bought her a new diamond ring for our 30th and she doesn't question the amount spent on the ST.

Thanks, she wanted the black ST but this one seemed unique at the time. Now they're everywhere lol!

Hello All I am Keith. Just traded in my GMC Terrain for a Carbonized Gray Metallic 2021 Explorer ST. I really like it. Haven't stopped smiling since I left the dealership. I live in Southern Maryland and I'm looking for a shop to do a few upgrades. Can't wait to get started.

Hello - my name is Donna Dreckman and this is the 1st Ford Explorer ST I have personally owned. My husband is Ford all the way, so I made him very happy!!!! I am learning all the bells and whistles of the new 2023 model - probably too many for me to ever remember! Hoping for the best!!
