Explore the 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac

I loved my ford sport Trac 2005 model

Good looking dependable auto. Sorry they are no longer made. It was highly noticeably and liked by all. I have always been a ford person. I own two Ford's now.

Years and Still Going Strong

Bought this truck off the ford lot new in 2002. It's the 2001 4x version. I have never been happier with a vehicle and still drive it today. 163000k miles on it with no issues. It's everything I need in a truck.

this truck has been very dependable

This truck has been the best thing for me! It is a 4 door with 4WD, and will go anywhere! Great for any use. It will tow a good load as well. I toed my 2 large sized four wheeler's without struggle in this thing! Perfect for a runaround vehicle cause it has a bed. Also when it snows you will have 4WD and will not have troubles in the snow. Also does very well off road.

This truck will get you where you need to go

I like this truck and it would be a great fit for someone who like the short bed look. I need a truck with a bigger bed.

Would like to own another Ford Sport track

Great all around pickup for the money, still looking for one soon as I find one with at least less than 100K miles on it. With some luck I'll find one within a month or two.

Has never broken down on me.

Great reliability with enough torque to tow and meet any needs. Great value. Was well maintained and never once broke down.

I have never driven the Truck.

I believe that their would be leg room, but was not given the chance to drive it. The vehicle is a nice color it's clean. I fell for it when I saw it!

Very reliable, plenty of space and great interior

Plenty of room for 5 passengers. Also, the half- bed is great for small projects and lumber. No rust due to the design and the great side boards. Great atonal cover for the bed that was hard cover.

Versatile and Dependable

I purchased used with 200k miles on it for $1500 (seller needed Christmas money). I have paperwork for fresh trans install with less than 100 miles on it. Mine is just a 2wd model, but loaded with leather, cd, power seats, roof rack, running boards, 20" alloys, etc., and I love the rear power window. I believe Ford built this model to last. I have room for three children in the back! I also love the small, (yet just enough) bed space to haul groceries, lumber, tools, shrubs, and etc. I drove over 160 miles to buy this one and enjoy driving it. Fuel consumption is actually better than my wife's 2005 awd explorer with the 4.0 V6. I would suggest this versatile lil sport brute to anyone.

good bye old friend

Bought this new in 2001. My daughter was 4 years old. 13 years and 177k miles later, she has been psyched to drive it herself. This has been such a reliable car with no work needed besides wear and tear. Until last night. It was totalled with her driving. She was OK. The truck saved her. Thanks Ford, that was a great vehicle. So long Trucky
