  what an improvement - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By dave - February 10 - 7:06 am

  just bought the new 07 Sport Trac-- what an improvement! This is our 4th one(01, 04, 05). The ride with the new frame and rear axle is vastly better. The V-8 gives more power and better mileage than the old V-6 with the 4.10 rear axle. We bought a loaded Limited model and were most impressed with the upgrades. Only possible criticism would be that the console mounted shifter takes away the small storage tray the old model had. Overfall a big upgrade for Ford.

  Vehicle is everything the manufacturer claims it to be! Ride, drive, performance are outstanding. Plus, very quiet inside.

  Perfect Match - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By AP - December 11 - 5:16 am

  As a previous 1997 Ranger owner, 2002 & 2003 Explorer owner and a 2004 F150 owner, I have to say the new SporTrac is the best of both worlds. If you are looking for the best combination of passenger room and a bed, the SportTrac is your best choice. Excellent handling, extremely comfortable and superb features make this my favorite Ford truck so far.

  Had it a year, and still love it - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Mrtwister - December 9 - 3:53 am

  Got rid of my TrailBlazer for this and got the way better deal. Build quality over GM is superior. Rides like an SUV, but I can pack 22 bags of leaves into the back. I drive 52 miles to work every day,

  Love This Truck - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By wlbrez - November 26 - 1:30 pm

  I have had my truck for about 5 month & I love everything about it. I was brought up on Chevrolet but when I to buy my pick-up (yes I consider it a pick-up) I saw the Sport Trac, took a test drive & I was sold. It rides & handles like a dream. Plenty of room on the inside for my 6 foot plus two sons, extra storage space behind the rear seat plus hidden space in the bed. I have never been a Ford fan but now I am sold. The V-8 may not be the one of the best for gas mileage but it has plenty of get-up-and-go! If you are worried about that get a 6 cylinder. I really like the auto 4-wheel drive & the stability control. The window sticker is a lot lower than expected on a vehicle with this much wow.

  07 Sport Trac, So Far So Good - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By jbodine - May 16 - 7:30 pm

  Bought my truck just this past Saturday and already have 500 miles on it. I really like it. My gas mileage is averaging around 16.5 or 17 right now but Im hoping that gets a little better as it breaks in and I get more used to driving it. Its already better mileage than the Dakota I was driving. The bed is small, but my dirt bike does fit which was a must for me. The V8 engine sounds good and runs smooth, but I havent really stressed it yet. The drivers seat fits me well -- Im kind of wide at roughly 240lbs. It has Sirius satellite radio, but I will be adding an iPod adapter soon. The radio sounds really good with the subwoofer behind the back seat.

  My SportTrac - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Jerry - October 29 - 6:40 am

  Researched all lines of truck like this and found the SportTrac the best looking and functional fit. The complete redesign for 2007 puts it way ahead of the competition. Recommend trying and deciding for yourself instead of heeding the biased reviews given domestic cars and trucks today. Go Ford!

  Different! - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By FYFFE7 - August 21 - 3:20 am

  Cool SUT. Ford Sport Trac won over the Honda with the funky door handles and truck like interior. Toyota cant even put cruse controls on the steering wheel. Replaced the air box with an air intake and acceleration is fantastic on the V8. Mileage city 14- 17 depending how you drive. HIway is 19-28 again depending how you drive. Interior matches the Ford Explorer which is nice. Door hands are different and very easy to use. Ride and comfort are as good as the best SUV on the market. Grab handle for passenger could be higher. Overall an SUT that can do it all.

  Quality Sport Trac - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By Steve D. - June 10 - 5:06 pm

  The 2007 Limited has a lot of nice features that distinguish it from the XLT. The quality, ride, handling, and comfort are more than expected. The truck is solid and have experienced no issues at all since driving it off the lot. A real winner!

  Its a fine ride. - 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
  By WT - April 27 - 7:00 am

  Have only owned this vehicle for a few weeks. But, it is so similar to my wifes 06 Explorer I had a pretty good handle on the rig before purchase. It handles very well and gives a quiet, comfortable ride. The steering and suspension systems feel positive on turns with no lean or sway. Mine has the 4.0L engine and it does not lack for power. It pulled my utility trailer with ATV aboard easily. Is the Sport Trac really a truck? Well ... maybe, sort of, I guess, but you wont realize it until you look in the rear view mirror. It is a very pleasing step up from my trade in, an 04 Ranger FX4. The five star crash test rating was a plus.
