2009 Ford Explorer Sport Trac (SUT)

Larger than the original, the Explorer SUT is designed to take on more passengers, more equipment and more fun. The design is all too similar to a truck and looks as if a F-150 had its back chopped off. Despite the look the Explorer SUT is convenient and practical for towing and off-road use.

The Explorer SUT comes in either a rear wheel or four wheel drive system. The four wheel drive option is obviously better suited for off-road use or just in case emergency situations. The Explorer SUT comes with the powerful 4.0L V6 that is all power, however if you are looking at some serious towing capabilities be sure to check out the 4.6L V8 that can carry up to 7,000 lbs on its back.

2009 Ford Explorer Sport Trac SUT

Roaming Times has been a leading resource for on-the-road campers for years. As gas and diesel prices keep rising, many RV enthusiasts are finding themselves homebound.

The Quicksilver is light enough to be towed by most cars, it’s made of durable materials that are free from formaldehyde, and affordable at $4,500 to $6,300. They also have SUT (sport utility trailer) models with space to haul extra gear.

This is a great option for travelers with pop-ups, or for people who’d like to trade in the SUV or truck for something smaller but don’t want to miss out on camping together. The Quicksilver won’t substitute for another kind of RV – there’s no bathroom, fridge, TV, etc – but it is one of the friendlier pop-ups on the road today.
