Go Find An Adrenalin V8 Sport Trac !!
Looked for months to find a V8 Adrenalin. Most folks never even heard of them. Last year was 2010 and I finally found a real beauty with 29000 miles. Didn't think it was as fast as my 5.3 liter Chevy 1500 but, got stuck passing 4 cars on a 2 lane road and WOW, this truck is fast over 50mph. Can't beat the Sunroof for late day cruising or the power rear cab window. The bed extender ,we thought, was a bummer until you use it and then we found it was perfect for those unusually long loads. Leather, Six-Speed Automatic , 4.6 L V8, AWD, ALL were major plus's owning this vehicle. Ford made a real mistake when they dropped this puppy. Found out, folks that own them, impossible to pry them way and , when discovered, they are ALL high mileage (used). so, Good Luck Finding One. Only problem I see is the 'evaluation guides' do not even LIST the AWD V8 "Adrenalin" model so, folks don't realize the extra value. They try to pigeon hole you with the 'Limited" model and other less desirable models. The Adrenalin's really were RARE, most loaded with Options and very quick ~ Just 'SOLD' this great truck with 46000 miles after many tire kickers trying to 'steal it'. It went to a great home in AL. where the new owner already had lots of experience 'trying' to find a low mileage example.... till he found mine. This is a great truck for Ford Lovers. I am a Chevy / GMC / Cadillac guy at heart: Many reasons but, the first being when you go to sell it- Chevy Buyers are standing in line- not so much for Ford. Gotta be a reason. Switched over to ultra-low- mileage Cadillac (Funeral) Flower cars- even harder to find- and WOW, what a spectacular discovery. LOVE THEM!

Love The Sport Trac
Purchased brand new white 09 Sport Trac XLT 4x2, sync/sunroof, over labor day 2009. Truck is perfect for those who want a smoother ride and do not need a huge cargo bed. Plenty of room for 5. Have put 3,000 miles and no issues, rides very nice and getting decent gas mileage, about 18 MPG overall city/hwy. Paid $21,000+ Tax/License

Fun, Flashy, and Practical all in one!
After looking for about a month at every GM vehicle in the SUV, crossover, and truck category, I found this FORD to be a much better fit for comfort, available features, power, looks, and most importantly PRICE! The Adrenalin packages gives you everything you could want in a stylish, flashy ride. The 4.6L 8cyl engine gives you the power that makes this fast and fun. Gas mileage is typical for an engine this size.
Ford should keep it
I am reviewing a V8 Adrenalin 2010 6 speed. I'm impressed! Quiet, smooth, gorgeous! But why such crummy gas mileage? And wait, no carpet(?) in a 38K vehicle?
Slight stall
When I slow to make a turn (at low speeds) the truck has a slight pause when pressing on the accelerator. It is incredibly frustrating because I bought the Adrenalin package. My dealer is being great about trying to find the problem. We are waiting for Ford to find a technical (programing) solution. There are no problems at normal speeds.
Hot Adrenalin Sport Trac AWD V8 292 HP
Great Colorado Red color. Very eye- catching Adrenalin package. Love the 20" tires and special rims. The tonneau cover is very nice, convenient and weatherproof. AWD worked flawlessly in ice and snow in Ohio ice storm. V8 towed mother-in-law's car from Michigan to Florida without breaking a sweat. Fit and finish are beautiful. Sound system is excellent, as is Sync hands-free. Really great software on the Sync. Stupid flaws include: Truck bed storage compartment in bad location and useless when tonneau cover is in place; cannot get telescoping steering wheel; no grab handle on driver's door; marginal inside storage; no directional signals in sideview mirrors. Ford can be proud of this.
Great ride
I came out of a 2003 4x4 F250 w/ the V10. I loved th truck but needed a vehicle with a lower payment and lower fuel bill. The Sport Trac did both. I have really enjoyed the ST. I think the 4.0 v6 handles it better than the 4.6 v8 handles the F150. Fuel mileage is avg. about 17, and, with the tailgate down, my Honda Foreman 4wheeler will fit in the back(the side tie downs come in very handy for this. Would definately recommend this vehicle.
Ford is moving forward
I had read a lot of reviews before I made a purchase. Allow me to say Ford had done a great job. I put black leather in this vehicle as well. Sync and convenience pack came with it along with the tow. First, I drove the kids to see family 3 hours away and it drove smooth. The passing issue with power-hey guys turn the OD switch off , that will give you more power, not that I had a problem. No carpet. Excellent, easier maintenance. Plastic inside. Great. Now I dont have to use "Armor All"-easy to clean with warm water. A sync syst-with Sirius. Let's roll! A class 3 tow package-take the jet skis to the lake up to 5000lbs w/ elec. Come on! Gas, Ford could do better.
Excellent Buy!
The Sport Trac is a great truck/SUV! It's great for everyone including familys. This thing has so many features that I don't know where to start. My Kids love it and my wife perfers to drive it over her Mustang and Audi!
A Convert
I have not owned an American built automobile for years, but was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the Ford. With the Adrenalin package, its the hottest looking truck around, and the performance with the V8 is decent. With the incentives Ford was offering, it was also one of the best values out there. The SYNC system is excellent, and the cabin is insulated well enough so you can enjoy the great sound system.
