Used 2004 Ford Explorer Sport Trac for Sale

Of course this vehicle is not one of the latest models, so you have to do without a dashboard navigation system. If you want to haul anything big you can't because the bed is too short. By big I mean like a sheet of plywood or something because of shortness. You can haul larger items if you had a trailer to haul behind it. You can adjust the seats with the electric controls, but the contour of the seats just doesn't seem adequate enough to support your back. The compass and temperature displays on these vehicles seem to wear out too quickly. Leather is not the most comfortable material to use on seats because it can get hot and sweaty in the summer. Also seat covers don't stay on leather seats well because they tend to slip around too much. Vinyl flooring is easier to clean but doesn't look as nice as carpeting and mats don't seem to stay in place on it because they slip around. The rear window wind down feature makes the window go down too quickly, it needs to be slower like the side windows. I tried it once on the freeway and my dog almost jumped out because it went down almost instantly. It doesn't have defrost on the rear window, so it has to be scrapped off in the winter.

One improvement would be the seat quality. The leather seems to wear prematurely but can be fixed or replaced to a new/like new condition. Also, the seat padding for the back is a little thin for the front compared to other vehicles in its class. (Mechanical) One improvement would be to put a serviceable transmission back in the vehicle. But you can modify (with instructions) on how to change the fluid and service it anyways. It will cost around a $100 for the tools and labor needed.
