About Ford Explorer Sport Trac
The Ford Explorer Sport Trac (also known as the Ford Sport Trac) is a pickup truck produced and marketed by Ford Motor Company in North America. The Sport Trac was Ford’s first mid-sized pickup truck, and it was available from 2001 to 2010. (skipping the 2006 model year). The Sport Trac competed primarily against crew-cab variants of the Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon, Dodge Dakota, Nissan Frontier, and Toyota Tacoma, as it was sized between the Ranger (whose crew cab variants were sold outside of North America) and the F-150.
The Ford Explorer Sport Trac shared its chassis and much of its body with the Ford Explorer SUV over two generations (with the pickup truck bed designed specifically for the model line). The Louisville Assembly Plant in Louisville, Kentucky was responsible for all production (taking the place of the Ford Ranger).
The Sport Trac was phased out of the model line as Ford developed the fifth-generation Ford Explorer SUV for the 2011 model year, with production ending in October 2010. The fourth-generation Ford Ranger, which is roughly the same size as the Sport Trac, serves the same market function in its SuperCrew four-door crew cab configuration.
