I have an 01 that I bought new in July 2000 and love it. It has only 63,000 miles on it and I have done several upgrades or changes to it. Then only problem I have had so far was I had to have the 4 x 4 switch replaced. If you don't know for sure, check your cruise control under the hood to see if it has been replaced or the Ford fused harness added to it. They had some problems with the red ones catching fire. You can do a search either in the forums or under projects, I think there is one there. Also if you are where you can, there will be a national meet in Louisville Kentucky this year on Fathers Day weekend. You get to tour the plant where they are made, talk to the engineers, meet other ST owners and see what they have done to theirs. I hope I typed this right, Iam hurrying to post this before I go get my grandson from school. Oh and be sure to wave and or hong at any other ST owner you see. The people on this site are a great bunch and are willing to answer and help you any way they can.
