Thanks Cruzrtwdgt, hadn't thought of that. It's not that I want for to take care of everything that goes wrong, just take responsibility for things that are obviously their design or engineering fault. Their cavalier attitude and quick draw response is not only insulting it does not...

Funny you should say "Yeah, like a transmission that goes belly-up!" I've already crossed that bridge as well as the steering column/speed control bridge, and the delaminating windshield bridge, and the fuel filling valve bridge, and the OBD computer failure bridge, and the molding falling off...

Have the cash in the bank Am looking forward to the new ST... Not now... Oh well, guess it's just the nature of the business. I can see the headlines now. "Ford closes 5 plants, and lets go 25 thousand workers." "Toyota opens new plant in U.S. hires 55 thousand workers and...

Looking to get a stereo for my fathers new 2004 F-150. The truck came with the basic AM/FM radio. Any ideas or know good places to a resonable stereo would be appreciated. XMark3

I've posted my share of "I Love my ST" posts. I do like the vehicle and would suggest the vehicle to some one (and have done so and to one that had the engine and transmission replaced) that was considering buying Sport Trac. The fact is that my transmissions failed and so have many others...

The tranny’s off EBay are out of Phoenix Az. I've had my tranny fail as well and had it fixed via Blue Oval. I had been watching closely those here that had been posting problems concerning their transmissions and when mine did the "Flashing OD Light of Death" and started to slip I...

Went over to the local AutoZone and they where more then happy to loan me the reader. Instead of them doing the reading they loan the tool, guess that's how they get around the leagal end of the business. Had code P0300 which was “random or multiple misfire” and was caused by the water...

Okay… engine now running as advertised. I performed advice as suggested, thanks guys. Have yet to replace spark plugs and wires. And that also sounds like sound advice. Next issue, the “SERVICE ENGINE” light now burns steady as a beacon of my misfortune as a shade tree mechanic...
