Overview & Reviews
After last year's redesign, the Ford Explorer Sport Trac enters 2008 with a handful of equipment upgrades. Side curtain airbags become standard on both trims, as do a power rear window, foglights and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The optional navigation system adopts voice activation technology and, later in the model year, the Ford "Sync" system (which integrates devices such as cell phones and MP3 players into the vehicle's controls) option debuts.
- Roomy cabin, strong optional V8, hidden storage compartments, ideal ride and handling balance.
- V8 can be thirsty, styling not for everyone, small cargo bed compared to traditional pickup trucks.
