[QUOTE="Massman, post: 1042808, member: 75861"] My 04 Sport Trac is rare exception in regards to the transmission. To the best of my knowledge all Sport Tracs from 01 to 05 had 5 speed transmissions. When I hit 30,000 miles I brought it in for a fluid and filter change. When the owner quoted me a cost of $160. I asked why it was so much and he explained it was because I didn't have a transmission dip stick. I told him mine did. He argued with me so I offered to bet him $60 that I had the dip stick. He smiled and said he would be glad to add an extra $60 to the bill. As I was waiting the owner came in and said it was going to take longer than expected because he had to get a different filter. When I asked why, he told me I had a F150 4 speed tranny and he had never seen that transmission in a Sport Trac. He honored the bet and charged me an even $100. That 4 speed explains the crappy mileage I'm getting compared to what other Sport Trac owners claimed they were getting. At 70 mph the tach reads 2600 rpms. [/QUOTE]
