Used 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Consumer Reviews
Drive shaft
The 2 wheel drive with the 4.0 is impossible to find a drive shaft for it. they can't be rebuilt ford no longer has them. After 4 weeks i finally found one in a warehouse in mich. for ---get this---$725.00. Hope you never need one
Adrenalin can't be beat & turns heads
I couldn't resist buying a brand new showroom leftover Adrenalin & taking advantage of Ford employee discounts. Traded in a 05 Silverado SE Special Edition Extended Cab and there's simply no comparison in quality - Ford wins hands down. The ride is tops, the look is...well, the Adrenalin turns heads everywhere I've gone. Definitely buy the Navigation option with Sync. Makes a world of difference. Black interior is nice but I would've enjoyed a two-color treatment. Still, this car/truck combination is versatile, sporty, smooth, cool & a real winner. Might be the best vehicle I've ever owned - and I've had many.

Ford Convert
I've never been a Ford fan, always preferred GM or Toyota products. Test drove this and was impressed with how solid it felt and the quietness of the cabin.
I love my sport trac
I purchased the 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT from Jazzy Jalopies in Quitman, Texas. The dealer was very fair and courteous. I love all aspects of the vehicle with the exception of gas mileage. I actually have not given it a fair trial yet as I have not really been on a long trip in the truck yet. I drove to a city 50 miles away and on the complete round trip I got approximately 17.3 mpg. I thought I would get better. It may actually get better on a long trip.

Best of both worlds
I traded in my '97 Ford F-150, which was the best vehicle I had ever owned. Needed more family room though. Drive alot off road so needed a 4WD. The dealer installed skid plates from Ford and 265/70R17 BF Goodrich Longtrail tires. Lifts the vehicle over an inch vs. stock tires. Truck drives like a luxury ride on the road and has handled real off road trails here in Arizona desert thus far with no problems. It is not the tallest frame for a 4WD, but take it careful and the truck will climb anywhere. Mileage is okay at 18.5 mpg on highway, and 16.5 city.
