Cant Tow a thing with this vehicle - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
By Bogeymstr - October 17 - 5:06 pmI purchased this "redesigned" vehicle as it was the perfect vehicle to tow the 17 fishing boat and the still have room for the kids. I recently went to rent a smae 6x12 enclosed trailer to do some moving. Much to my surprise this National company refused to rent me the trailer citing that "the vehicle is a high rollover risk when towing". I checked with my insurance company and verified that the vehicle was at high risk for roll over when towing, in fact they want to triple my premium no that I broght it to thiier attention. Needless to say I am exploring either Lemon Law remedy or at least consumer fraud.....This vehicle seems to have become a bad buy!

Not quite what I expected - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
By a cooper - May 8 - 1:53 amThe interior is not well designed. The door opener is ok, but the grip on the door is awkward; its hard to grab to keep the door from swinging too far, and at a bad position to close. The interior/exterior temperature gauges are small and hard to read. The message center is in the middle of the dash, but the speedo is hard to read through the steering wheel. The parking brake release is hard to reach and cramped. There is no indication on the dash as to what gear youre in. There is no way to manually shift out of the overdrive(s). The flip-over rack was bent and the locks wouldnt work. When you flip the larger back seat down, there is a big gap between the back of the seat/cab.
