Used Ford Five Hundred for Sale

The car is fairly large, which makes parking sometimes difficult. The gas mileage is about average - I would have preferred a car with better than average gas mileage, and would have happily sacrificed size for improved fuel usage. It performs well for my basic needs, which is to travel to and from some cities on occasion and drive around the city. I haven't had any particular performance issues outside of a recent problem with the fuel pump, which some reviews indicate is a common problem with this car.

At the time that we bought it, it was a nice family car that fit all three car seats in the back. It was good on gas. Nothing major had went on for years until one day that I was coming back from grocery shopping and all of the sudden it shut off on me and the power steering was gone. I drifted to a safe place to pull off and where I pulled off at was on a little bit of a hill, so the car started drifting backwards. I put on the emergency brake and went over the greenhouse that I was at and asked to use their phone to call a friend to come and get me and my groceries. The friend came and picked me up and my groceries and took me home. I called several garages in the area and over the phone they told me that it could be either the transmission or a connection switch. Since my family was in the need right away for a vehicle to get back and forth to work in, we decided to let the car sit and go to another dealership to purchase another vehicle.

I purchased my 2005 Ford Five Hundred Limited in the winter of 2015 with 159,000 miles on it. I currently have 170,000 after almost three years. The car has tremendous interior space, and it has been a reliable car. You don't realize how quiet and smooth the ride is until you test-drive something else. I was looking for another vehicle and find many fuel efficient cars (Camry, civic, etc..) to be noisy and you give up a lot of comfort. I think I am going to find another used Ford Five Hundred when this finally gives out...if it ever does. Hands down, great car!
