  Looks good - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Marsha K - December 2 - 12:23 pm

  Just purchased a 2007 Sport Trac and it looks good but the gas mileage leaves something to be desired. It is comfortable and I like the fact that the rear seat can seat adults or fold down for the dogs. The little cubbyholes in the bed seem to be pretty useless. One is unreachable unless I climb into the bed of the truck. The other two arent even deep enough to hold a bottle of oil upright. I can keep bungee cords in one. I just drove it four hours straight with no discomfort so it fits me pretty good. 57 female. The Gas tank is on the wrong side for the USA and the interior door handle is inconvenient.

  So close... - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Pat Richard - November 29 - 8:16 pm

  Not a bad ride. My 4WD unit rides nice, and handles well. Traction control works great. Mileage hovers right around those listed - even better sometimes on the highway. The sound system in mine (6 CD stereo w/ MP3 playback) sounds really good. Mine has the power pedals, but they hardly get used.

  2007 Explorer SportTrac - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Dr. Dana Miller - July 27 - 9:03 pm

  Have owned this vehicle for about a month now. Looked at other vehicles but decided on this one for several reasons. The V-8 is O.K. but could use more bottom end torque. Runs good up high but should pull better down low. Mileage is disappointing even considering the type of vehicle it is. Good transmission. Quite comfortable. Wish I would have got the reverse sensing. Not easy to back up. Pulls 4200 lb. boat quite well. Overall a good vehicle, but the low first gear in the transmission doesnt make up for the relatively poor low end torque. The 5.4 litre motor would be a better choice if was available. Mileage would be about the same. Still the 4.6 is better than V6.

  A step up from my Ranger - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By AdirondackColor - June 24 - 4:46 am

  I bought a new Ford Ranger in 2003 and loved it. 4.0 auto 4X4 averaging 19 MPG. My daughter had bought a used Sport Trac the year after. I drove it a few times and thought it was a great vehicle. When it came time to replace the Ranger I looked into the new 2007 Sport Trac and was impressed with the improvements. It has all the bells and whistles I wanted and I found I didnt use the full size box on the Ranger very often so the Sport Trac was a better fit for me now. The Sport Trac handles great, its quiet, the V6 gives me all the power I need, a really well balanced vehicle. Very happy with the purchase.

  Better Than Original - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Yette - May 30 - 3:13 pm

  I previously owned a 2004 Sport Trac, the 2007 version is a much better vehicle, quieter, quicker, better handling and more roomy. When I drive down the highway, the Limited edition is as tall if not taller than many F150s and Chevy trucks. The handling is car-like. The Sport Trac does well in snow and rain where the 2004 felt like it could get away at any time.

  Lil Red loves his Sport Trac - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Lil Red - May 19 - 2:50 pm

  I special ordered my Sport Trac with 95% of the options to include the Chrome Package, reverse sensors, Class III/IV tow package, V8, leather interior etc. The ST fits comfortably in the garage so you dont have to leave it parked out on the driveway. I will be using my truck to pull motorcycles trailers and for any other utility need that we might have. My only complaint is that it would be nice to get slightly better gas mileage but you cant win em all.

  BEST TRUCK - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By RANGER - March 27 - 12:26 pm

  I love this truck! Ive owned 3 Rangers before this and a F-150. The Sport Track is like a mini F-150. The ride, handling, noise levels are so much better than the previous generation Sport Trac. I would highly recommend checking out this truck

  SportTrac 07 Limited - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By DBrown - March 19 - 12:26 pm

  Have owned a 2003 SportTrac, but the 2007 is far superior in fit and finish. I purchased the 07 SportTrac at its introduction in fall of 2006. I have approximately 27,000 miles on this vehicle and its great to drive. Handling is excellent and it has great curb appeal and really draws a crowd. I am always complimented on "What a great looking Truck". Currently having problems with the ceramic brake pads installed on vehicle making a loud screeching sound. Upon servicing, dealer states pads are good and that problem was road debris in calipers. They shot compressed air to remove so called debris but screeching continues. Stay on top of this as pads are very expensive after dealer markup.

  Great Truck! - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Frank - January 22 - 5:16 am

  Great redesign. fun and comfortable to drive. Especially compared to my Dodge Ram.YUK! Moonroof and tonneau cover make it even more enjoyable. Door handles take some time to get used to. Picked up one week ago havent stopped driving yet.

  Ford Got it Right This Time - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By schurc - September 14 - 8:43 am

  Just traded back to the Sport Trac, and am so glad I did. The 07s ride is 1000 times better than the 02, and better than the Tacoma also. I love this truck/SUV, and am so glad to be a Ford owner once again. Many more options than the Toyota for the same price.
