2009 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUT 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	So bad I can't drive it much more than the 4 miles to and from work. The front seats are so hard that the first couple times I drove it I couldn't figure out why my feet were so cold. Because the circulation below my knees was being cutoff. I have tried extra cushions for the seat bottom and I have found something that really helps, but on longer drives, combined with the firm ride - bring your Advil. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
