    Bumper Step

    Does it cause any false triggers of the backup proximity warning signal? On my 2010 G2, if I back up with the tailgate down the warning beeper sounds constantly.

    Vehicle Wanted Seeking - 2010 Adrenalin V8 AWD (any color)

    I just looked at online photos of the rear bumper of about six different STAs and did not see the telltale sensors on any of them so I guess it was a cosmetic issue decision not to interrupt the clean lines of the rear bumper.

    Vehicle Wanted Seeking - 2010 Adrenalin V8 AWD (any color)

    I'm curious about a feature or lack thereof on the STA. My brochures indicate with a footnote that the backup warning alert system is not available with the ST Adrenalin package. I presume that was because of a different rear bumper design that did not lend itself to mounting the four sensors...

    Scored a Bed Extender for $15 Today! But... the Mounting holes on my Trac are Not threaded? How do I install it??

    I think that is too broad of a generalization. My 2010 Gen 2 did not come from the factory with a bed extender. The center holes were threaded but there were no posts.

    Vehicle Wanted Looking for Clean 2nd Gen Sport Trac Adrenalin

    It will be interesting to see how quickly it sells at that price ($23,590). Looks to be in nice condition and since it was a local vehicle there is probably no rust at all. Obviously the used car people weigh the low mileage against the 11 year old age when pricing a vehicle but when do the...

    Scored a Bed Extender for $15 Today! But... the Mounting holes on my Trac are Not threaded? How do I install it??

    I think this response explains the lack of threads. Obviously some models were built with threaded center holes (like my 2010 LTD) and others were built expecting a spring-loaded pin on the bed extender at the hinge point. When I built my home-made bed extender I just grabbed some standard...

    Gas Mileage

    Because I've used my vehicles for business purposes for decades and I like spreadsheets I have kept close track of my gas purchases for both of my Sport Tracs. With the data printed on the receipt at the pump it is easy to compute exact gas mileage. I have over 250 gas purchases logged for the...

    Haven't you been watching those WeatherTech CupFone ads on TV???

    New Sport Trac: Adrenalin or Limited?

    I have a paper copy of the 2010 Sport Trac sales brochure and pdf copies of some older ones that describe the different ST model features. This site has quite a few, but not all, of the brochures. As I mentioned in another thread, the 2008 brochure is old enough that it did not list the STA...

    Parts Wanted Wanted: Bed Extender

    I built one with scrap plywood and some hardware I had in the shop. I needed to transport a number of small but long items across the state that were much longer than the native 49" of my bed. Those pipe-based units with the beveled corners looked like a poor solution for what I needed. They...

    FS 2008 STA $11000

    Interesting that my pdf file of the ST brochure for the 2008 ST (copyright 2007) does not even show the Adrenalin package option so it must have been introduced after that initial sales brochure was printed. A sales brochure for the 2008 Adrenalin, currently for sale on ebay, shows 4x2 and AWD...

    Updating SYNC on a 2010 LTD - version change list?

    Interesting but that is a totally different file than what I got. He shows GG1T-14D544-AB. What I got was DE8T-14D544-AD. There were no human-readable files in the zip. The Ford list of SYNC 1 versions says the FPN number "varies depending on vehicle and region" for both v4.6 and v4.8. The...

    Updating SYNC on a 2010 LTD - version change list?

    My 2010 ST LTD without the NAV system was built 1 month before production ended. I got curious this morning about my SYNC 1 version and after a few false starts with the online directions I extracted the FPN# from the display. It is AR3T-14D544-AE, which according to Ford is SYNC 1 v3.1. A...

    2010 Sport Trac 4x4 Limited V-8, dark copper metallic

    Bought it used in 2013 with 37,000 miles on it. Now at 96,000 miles. Factory adds: the usual features with the Limited package and Rapid Spec 201A 4x4 LTD convenience package plus 4.6L 3-valve V8 engine with 6-speed automatic transmission and non-limited-slip rear axle (3.55 ratio), power...

    2007 ST rear end suspension

    Yes, that is the correct number. I put the 271125 Monroe assemblies in the rear of my 2010 and they are great. That was all my shop needed to do the job. I did get a 4-wheel alignment after the new rear struts were installed. But the adjustment in my case was minimal. Later this year I'll...

    Help! Electrical issues with message center/fuel gauge

    I can't help you with your problem but I fear this will be an increasingly common issue with ageing vehicles, especially for those who put on relatively low mileage each year. The years pile up and the engine, transmission and body are still fine but gremlins start to appear in the electronics...

    2022 Ford Maverick revealed — hybrid pickup gets 37 mpg, costs $21,490

    Really? You're on a Sport Trac forum. The Sport Trac was not a cheap vehicle when new. It is not a pickup truck. If I wanted a pickup truck there are lots to choose from out there. If I wanted something more offroad capable I'd get a Jeep. (Oh, that's right, I already have one!) Not sure...

    Installed Michelin Defender LTX MS Tires

    The last set of tires I put on my 2002 4WD ST were Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor tires because I did a fair amount of back road travel and a bit of four-wheeling on rocky terrain. I loved those tires and had a lot of confidence in them. And despite the somewhat aggressive tread, they were not...
