07 Sport Trac

[Stefan Majlinger]

Saw another 07 Trac this morning in Brownstown, MI on Sibley Rd. It had the front mask trying to hide it and Manufacturer's plates on it. It looked much bigger than I thought it would. I hope they make an Eddie Bauer, FX4 or a King Ranch version.

That's the zebra we say being tested in Arizona.

No spy pics?!

I'd love to see the new ST going through the paces.

 

[Rodger Tellefson]

Larry, The reason there are no pics at the Ford Proving Ground, other than what GM posted, is because no cameras of any kind were allowed. And, security was very tight.

 

[Larry Phillips]

I can believe that. I'll bet it was quite a show though.

How big was it? As big as an F-150?



I dont think it needs to be any longer, its damn long enough now. Try parking it in Manhattan.



It can use alittle more width though.

 

[Travis Munday]

I think the specs are 10" longer and 3" wider...off the top of my head, so don't quote me unless I"m right, lol.

 

[JohnnyB]

Another 10" longer will make it 18 feet. Are they crazy?

 

[Travis Munday]

Yes, yes they are.

 

[Nelson Atwell]

The ST is already longer than the Chevy Suburban. It must be the longest "SUV" on the market.

Once again, Ford blows it.



Bringing out a larger, heavier, V8 powered SporTrac doesn't make much sense when gas is $3.00 a gallon and rising...

 

[Tom Schindler]

Then they put an IRS in the back. Retards!!!

[Gavin Allan]

And they won't offer a manual transmission either.



idiots...

 

[Tom Schindler]

Gavin,



I can understand Fords point of view about that. Less then 1% of all Trac's came with a a manual tranny.



So, since there are about 70,000 Tracs built a year, 700 would be manual tranny's.



While I do agree with you, I do understand thier reasons for not offering them any longer.

I would say that making it about 4" wider would be fine, but 18 feet long is crazy. I think a 16'4" to 16'8" is long enough. Lets not forget that it weighs over 4400 Lbs. Make it wider, longerand add a v-8 and we are looking minimum 5000 lbs!
