Sport Utility Truck
2009 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
|
The Ford Explorer Sport Trac was the king of the hill in the unique sport utility truck category for 2009. Vincentric’s Best Value in America award went to this versatile product from Ford due to its low repair costs and low fuel costs, which created a combination that was tough for the Hummer HT3 and Chevrolet Avalanche to overcome. |
