I know what you mean, my Sport Trac is stock but it is sure strange going from it to my C-5 for sure. I work for the State of Indiana and have had a State vehicle for almost all of my 28 years and they buy low bid for the most part and get first one thing then another but right now I have a Ford Taraus and I am not complaining mind you becasue it's FREE and so is the fuel but I would not buy one of them, just not a big Ford car fan!!! But I do like my Sport Trac, it is a 4-door with the lockable hard shell cover on it and one of the most versitile vehicles I have ever had.
Take care and stay in touch, just waiting on spring to get the C-5 back out
