Ford Five Hundred, 9 out of 10!
I love this car, I bought the Five Hundred with 80 thousand miles on it and I've 25 thousand on it since I bought it. This is a big car, lots of cabin space for driver and all passengers, this car seats 5 comfortably and 4 extremely comfortably. seats in the front work great and there's air vents in the back. Dual Climate control is great for me and my girlfriend who is always cold. The v6 200 horsepower motor gets the car moving decently but not as quickly as other cars in its class. The leather interior is really nice in the back but hasn't worn very well in the front where there has been more use, one good thing is there is no big cracks in the leather but there are some small ones. The AWD works very well in the snow which I recently got to test out on a weekend get away near Yosemite, and again I loved the heated seats for that trip. The stereo works pretty well and the sub woofer is pretty loud, the only thing I don't like is you have to pay more to have the Bluetooth option installed despite the stereo having the buttons on it. The gas mileage isn't the best either but you can't expect it to be great for such a large car.

Most reliable car I have ever owned
The space in my car is great when setting in the back even the tallest of my friends has ample space and is not cramped. It is great on long trips because we can fit five comfortably and no one is cranky when we arrive at our destination. The sunglasses holder in the headliner in front is great and convenient. There is an extra compartment in the top middle of the dash that allows for small storage optimal for a hand gun or your favorite CDs. There are two outlets allowing for charging your phone while also plugging in devices such as portable DVD players for the kids. Another great thing is that the car has held its value pretty good over the last nine years.
Things that I found that are common with the fivehundred: The Master Brake Cylinder went out early on and was over 500 to fix I felt this should have been a factory recall. Another thing that I felt should have been a factory recall is the top motor mount that wears out early. The driver side seat belt has started to stick but then again the car is almost 10 years old.
Hands down the fivehundred is the best car I have ever had the chance of owning. I do not have a large income and have not had the best luck with other cars in the past. For a full-size car it truly has all that I need.

Spacious and comfortable.
This is a spacious car with lots of leg room for you and the passengers. The car comfortably seats you and four passengers. It has four-wheel drive and I have rarely had issues with it. With regular upkeep and oil changes, I have put over 300,000 miles on it and it still runs smoothly. After many years of owning this 2006 model, it has started to rust. This is to be expected though, as I live in the Midwest where cars are exposed to many different types of weather. This particular model has heated seats and a sunroof. The trunk is the largest I have ever seen on a vehicle. It is two to three times the size of other cars I have owned in the past. Visibility is not an issue with the large windows. I feel that it is very easy to see out of the car, which makes the car feel even more safe. I feel I certainly have gotten my money’s worth when buying this car, as I have rarely had issues with the vehicle. It is reliable, safe, and comfortable.
