Overview
Ford built the Explorer Sport Trac at Louisville, Kentucky from February 2000 for the 2001 through 2005 model years. It used a second-generation Explorer chassis stretched to a 125.9-inch wheelbase, the same as the Ranger SuperCab, with the front of the Explorer Sport and a four-door cab.
The only engine was a 210 hp 4.0 L SOHC V6 with a 5-speed manual or 5-speed automatic, in rear- or four-wheel drive. Its 50-inch bed was made entirely of composite, and a power-retracting Breezeway rear window and a bed extender helped stretch cargo space. Four-wheel disc brakes arrived for 2002.
