Here's my new TV.

2009 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4.6 V8 2WD, Class III/IV towing package, navigation, Sync, fully loaded except Tonnau Cover, sunroof and remote start.

Just took her on about a 150 mile joy ride and got 20.1 average and she was cruisin at 75 MPH at less than 2000 RPMs love it!!! Can't wait to see how she tows my little T@B. The T@B always towed great with my 02 Sport Trac, but this baby has the stabilization and trailer sway control 🙂

I've got an ARE Z-Shell on order for her. It's gonna be sharp 🙂

Nice truck, looks a bit familiar though. 🙂 Glad to see you couldn't hold off and keep your 2002, you'll like this one a lot. I sure do and it pulls my new TT pretty good to. As you've found out, these get great mileage for a midsize with V8. I regularly get 19.5 mpg to 21 mpg on road trips, and that's with the V8 and auto 4WD! The old 2005 V6 4.0L 270 Hp Pathfinder only got 17 - 17.5 mpg going to work while my Sport Trac gets 18.5 - 19 mpg going to work. Heavier truck, higher Hp, bigger displacement, BETTER Mileage. Gotta luv it!

BTW, love my tonneau cover. My came ordered with the truck. You may want to look at before you go the topper route. Mine doesn't let a drop of rain in the bed, and allows me to carry stuff in it with the front panel folded over, or I can take the whole thing out myself. It's easy, you just have to work a routine. Anyhow, good luck with the topper when you get it.

Enjoy and have a good one.

I would be interested to know how well the new truck does for you. I've look at them but all of the emissions on the motor really turns me away. I read about the Dino Test that was done on the stock 5.9 and the stock 6.7. The test showed that the Stock 5.9 produces more HP then the Stock 6.7 do to the added emissions on the 6.7. But the 6.7 did respond real good the add on's such a chips for power gain.

I really don't notice any power gain or loss as of yet. However the 6speed auto trany is hands down nicer to tow with then the 4speed auto my 05 had. It rides nicer and handles the large 5er very well.

I heard the 6 speed trany are really nice. I have a couple of friends that have the newer Dodge. They are happy with theirs but miss their 5.9. The 5.9 is a cleaner "meaning no emissions" and easy to work on.

Here is a couple pictures of the new setup and the previous vintage trailer setup.







The Subaru made for a decent tow vehicle for the little vintage trailer but we wanted a bit more.
