Just wanted to say hello

I don't own a Ford yet, but I plan on buying an Explorer Sport Trac. I can't wait!

Thanks! Also if anyone here has any advice on Sport Tracs or anything I would be more than happy to hear. Right now all I know is what color I want! But even that may change

ok TB,
Did you check the site out for sellers? A lot of folks there wrote that dealers were offering ~$17500-18300 (US) for 01 with avg miles.

Sweet -

I still want a FORD GT though...

I haven't really checked out the Sportrac or Explorers, being an old fart and all that (I like OLD trucks), but welcome to FTE!

~Just a little ol' site that is the very best of it's kind on the web...

Welcome to FTE Tinker!!

I think you will really enjoy a Sport Trac. I have been thinking of buying a used one and starting one as my second project, but I really don't have the time to finish everything else I have planned for my X now...

Join in the Explorer/Sport Trac forum and jump in! There are a lot of Trac owners here, and a lot of knowledgable people that can help with just about anything you can think of!
