One Year Ownership 2022 Explorer ST

- We revisit Nightwing after one year of ownership. We go over some new parts some things that needed to be fixed by the dealer and some future endeavors. This video is a little longer than I predicted so I guess I had a lot to say.

That thing is beautiful, you have great taste in what you do to your cars and it shows. Spotless machine everything is so cleanly done and taken care of!
Very very nice ride sir 👍
Debadge and black tail lights would look like a clean touch.
Nice video! I just picked mine up last week. It's great so far.
Man everything that you've done to the ST is very tasteful. I really like the stance it has with the lowering springs, but I personally like the other rims and tires that you have for it. Looking forward to see you get you S650, Im a old guy like you lol Im sure you'll do it right. I have a 2019 procharged Mustang Gt pushing 780 rwhp and I have added some tasteful parts to the exterior and I get so many compliments and have won several car shows. Thanks for sharing bud
Thank, after i do the brakes they may go back on.
Good video sir, your car is magnificent in all areas, this is my dream build for am Explorer. keep it up sir av a blessed weekend
Thanks for the vid. I have a "17 GT. My plastic / rubber wind splitters, the same material as your fender surrounds started to fade and the front was beat up from road debris. Griot Garage has ceramic coating application that comes as a package wipe with a small sponge. I highly recommend check it out, the coating last up to 5 years and even add a permanent gloss.
Very nice setup!
Your ride is beautiful, sir!
I've been driving by this ST everyday for the last couple months, and it's still turning my head. Love the mustangs but the Explorer St takes the cake.
Same here lol
Hows the reliability on the ST?
I Really like the wheels👍💯planning to buy for my XLT.
I would leave the st badges red. But black out the blue oval front and rear emblems. The factory exhaust came out the bottom holes to keep the tips clean.
I love the wheels you have and the color of your ST!!
Thanks
I would put weather tech floor liner. They are expensive but they completely save your carpet.
You need to check because there is another recall for the window switches for the chrome coming off.
I think I heard that carbon monoxide getting into the cabin is why Ford did the exhaust like that.
Bullshet
They lied, it's impossible from a rear exhaust
It’s exactly why ford did it! There are vents for the rear ac coil that were sucking up exhaust! My family and I got carbon monoxide poisoning from it! They put a carbon monoxide detector in our 2017 explorer and it was 10x the limit you should inhale! Ford bought it back after 6 failed attempts to fix it! They did a tsb on it right after they bought ours back
That was the last gen explorers.
Wow That looks dope. Classy mods
I appreciate that I tried to keep it tasteful
Very impressive man
I have the blue screen. You are right its a temp fix and its tied to the physical cameras. Ford released new cameras and stopped sale 4 weeks ago because they werent working
Hell yeah fellow VA brother. These mods are great. I see you're in Henrico, ever heard of ShueTunning?
Very nice have had 2 ST's. Can't believe you didn't complain about
'Parking Brake"
Kinda gotten use to it now 😁
Nice…lots of goodies.. but, ‘I don’t know about that’ 😂
Have u had any leaky trans pan issues? I got mine and the first night at the strip it warped and started leaking. I decided to go for the PPE metal pan that has a plug to skip taking the pan off to service.
Looks good. I drive a 2023 for my patrol vehicle. All blacked out. I like it so much I may buy one for the family.
I have a 2020 ST with about 25,500 mi. on it. I have the same Steeda lowering spring and rear adjustable sway bar. I may get the front sway bar soon as well. I have a fully customized stainless steel exhaust that was fabricated in Manassas, VA. I live in MD.. I have a Stage 4, 93 Octane Livernois Tune and sit on 24" 3-Piece Forgiato Wheels. I almost purchased the same CAI for my ST and F-150, but I didn't pull the trigger. Aside from window and windshield tint, that's all I've done. I will change out the factory speakers, as they can't handle what I need them to handle. As you mentioned, the "diffy stiffy" will get purchased as well. How was your time in Asheville, NC? I attended the ST Experience there as well.. I must say, that was the best new car perk I've ever experienced. Ford Racing definitely did a good job of showcasing what the ST is capable of. Did they give you the blacked out ST badges when you departed? I have mine, but I like the contrast of the red ST logo against my black truck, so I won't be installing them. Outside of the rear camera recall (blue screen), I've had no other issues with my truck.
Yeah my ST definitely feels like it rides on rails. For being such a big truck it is definitely confident inspiring. The ST performance Trip was awesome and really showed you the capability of these vehicles. I don't think you can go wrong in an explorer ST at all
Could you put a list of your upgrades in the description.
Thank you for a great video!
It's taking me a little time to get back with people but I will see what I can do for you
Thank you!
I am thinking about getting one in place of 2020 AT4 pickup because I have a bad back and knees and it might be easier to get in and out
Thanks for making this! I have a 2020 ST, that I bought in April. Only added the Thermal RD exhaust (2.5"). Do you think it's possible to get upgraded downpipes? Do you think the strut bar actually helps the ride? I have plans to get a rear sway bar and *possibly* springs. I do want to get spacers as well + black lug nuts. Also a S550 Convertible owner myself!
Make sure you get that rear end bolt recall taken care of!
@@xscorpx I have 2 bolts. It's an early 2020 model. I'm lucky there.
Ford did the downturned exhaust before the tips because the vacuum created by the car going down the road was supposedly pulling exhaust fumes into the rear of the car via the liftgate. Lot of cops and other owners complained on 16 or so model year and Ford just carried the recall fix forward into 2020+
Did you install the Steeda springs, sway bars, and exhaust yourself or have a shop do it?
I have a '22 ST in the same color. I had the dealer add the Steeda lowering springs, rear sway bar, front strut tower bar, and Powerstop brake pads as part of their pre-delivery setup. Also upgraded to 295/40 tires on the OEM black wheels, with no-drill splash guards, and the 295 width fits perfectly against the splash guards. Had some exhaust work done as well (removed the rear mufflers, replaced the resonator with two chambered round mufflers, replaced the dual round exhaust tips with single black ovals). Added an oil catch can as well, and that 3.0 Ecoboost engine has nowhere near the accumulation that the 3.6 Jeep Pentastar engine has (I had a Gladiator Rubicon). A local Ford shop that I use for oil changes and tire rotations said it's one of the best-sounding Ecoboost engines they've heard. It's a fun SUV to drive, especially in Sport mode, and I can still get over 30 mpg on freeway trips. I might look into getting a larger intercooler, just for efficiency's sake (cooler intake charge is always a good thing). But with a price of almost $900, plus labor to install, it'll take some advance planning (and lottery winnings!).
You must be rounding or calculating the fuel wrong. 2022 ST is rated 18 city / 25 highway. Only way to get 30mpg would be to draft a semi truck going 60mph with nothing in the car except a driver.
@@msatchmo I'm not doing anything wrong, that's what the readout said on the dash. There was a stretch of highway in western NC, we were on our way to visit relatives in TN, and I glanced over at the dash, and that's what it was displaying at the time. I used to go back and forth from eastern VA to eastern NC about every other weekend, would consistently read high 20's on the dash. Did I ever calculate the tank's mpg by hand? No. Based on the dash displays, my '22 ST got 10 mpg better consistently than my '23 Toyota 4Runner.
And yes they make some nice aluminum one its by Ronin check out that one its beautiful...
Is there any option of adding a Turbo Boost Gauge/Display..?
I just priced the 2025 st. Almost 62k for 4WD model. Ill be ordering mine soon for an Aug purchase. Great video.
Nice
I do love the new interior
I just purchased a brand new 2024 Ford Explorer ST in White. Was actually looking for the blue color you got but they didn't have it so I went with the white cause it had a luxury look to it.
Your 2022 model look SUPER COOL. 😎👍
Congratulations on the new ride
Funny I was looking for a white one but got stuck with a blue one
any cincerns about the single bolt differential frame bolt mount
2022 Ford Explorer ST, 5,687 miles
Nice

💯💯💯
Salutation.
Great review and insight.
@33:10 is the engine On & idling? If so, That’s an identical engine sounds reminds me of my BMW X5 which has the monster hot-v engine!
That should tell you a lot.
##As for your wishes…..
I’d feedback suggest those to the company.
It’s Ford and it’s one of few products that lives longer when kept maintained with care!
And if they pay close attention to quality materials they might top-op other companies on the market.
One can see they’re almost there.
I’m looking to replace my X5 with one of these for my old man ….
perhaps I’ll go with the police Interceptor’s.
I thank you for sharing Man.
I bought a 2020 xlt, 30k with 16% APR. was it a good decision?
My friend, where did you buy these window deflectors? It appears that this one it's not fixed with tape.

@@N2MYGT thanks.
Love the video, the car is awesome! How many miles now? Any issues?
A little under 9000 miles, no issues at all
Nice work! I have a Europe model (Chigago plant made) Explorer ST-line 457 hp Hybrid version 2021 ym. Meaning that it has 3,0 liter twinturbo 357 hp + electric motor. Very low on fuel, depending if you can charge at least daily. Best wishes Mikko Salomaa, Finland
Hey man, how you doing, I have a cuestion, I’m going to paint my s197 next week, and i love the color you have on the stang, I’m thinking maybe that color, but I don’t know anything about that code, you know the code of that paint??? (Is on the vin sticker) I thing my 08 gt/cs Can looks amazing with that color !!! Thanks man
J4 Deep Inpact Blue
great contents did you learn allot from the performance class?
A little but I would do it again
I cant find that phone mount. What is it called and where can i buy it?
proclip
Hi. Are you interested in Storage Molle Panel? Thanks😊
This dude never works! 😂😂 All fords looks awesome.
I work from home
What if anything did you do about that nasty stop/start technology?
Purchase the start-stop eliminator
Did any of the engine compartment mods void your warranty?
Nope,
Dude kinda looks like Pittbull aka Mr. Worldwide 😂
But i don't have his $$$ but I am Cuben
How reliable is the ST? Any electric issues and etc?
It's been great so far
@@N2MYGT how long have you had the truck?
What is the width of those Ferradas?
22x11
@@N2MYGT
Thank you. I was wondering why those 305s looked so square.
I just don't understand the wireless charger, if it doesn't have wireless android auto or Apple car play...... Mines always plugged in anyways 🙄
*edit* I like the black plastic trim on my white ST Looks good when the tires are not shined which is way easier not having to put that on my tires no more 😂
What are the new brake rotors name?
I bought them from brake performance. I don't know if they are a power stop brand. Just take a look at the website and look up the explorer
@@N2MYGT tks so much
Everything looks good.......except the exhaust is too noisy. Just dont move on my neighborhood ......lol
Excellent video bro! I want one and was even thinking about the Lincoln Aviator!
You can do the same exact things to that. Plus have more of a luxury feel inside
Front plates are ugly good sir, id put that under the front seat and deal with any possible tickets.
If i would have got it in time not to get that put on.
oil catch can i see.
Yes, J&L
We were good until you lowered(slammed). Not my Forte. Different generation I guess.
That truck is not slammed. I have the same Steeda springs on my ST. The truck is more planted for spirited driving now. Trust me.. You don't want a performance SUV sitting high up off the ground!
Why tf doesn’t ford have a 5 liter version of the ST? They would be flying off the damn shelves
I agree that would be a nasty SUV
Beautiful ST though bud. I’m honestly thinking of getting an ST Vs. a 5.0 mustang..thanks for giving an honest review..I’m a little worried about the whole direct injection/blow by..did you install an oil catch can?
@@Crabtronics yes, J&L oil separator
I was wondering if you put an coyote engine in, but I dont think the engine bay will allow it
@@N2MYGT thanks
Umm, umm, umm. That was straight up painful.
Why is that? Don't like the ST?
he's jealous is all dude nice car
Where is lessecomoreboost at? Lol
