Used Ford Five Hundred for Sale in New York, NY

This car has been in my family for many years and has been one of the more reliable vehicles for years. It was able to handle as a commuting car and then a car for a new driver. After 200,000 miles, it still only needed limited work and was able to drive well for more local trips. No major parts repair was needed, and the interior held up well after being used by a family with small kids.

Story

The car was perfect for a teenage girl driving around town in the car. The trunk was used for many drive-in movies during the summertime.

2005 Ford Five Hundred - Reliable

Overall our ford five hundred was a pretty good vehicle. It was designed well and I can't think of very many complaints while we had it. Very easy to drive, accelerated quickly and braked smoothly, gear shifting is extremely smooth. Only had to take it into the shop a few times for minor issues.

Pros

It had all wheel drive with traction control, a keypad on driver side door in-case you locked yourself out, an extremely spacious trunk, and a decent about of headroom and legroom. Seats are very comfortable both front and back seats have plenty of room.

Cons

It was only made for a couple years so any maintenance required was expensive requiring parts directly from ford. It only got about average MPG- 20-23 normally. The only other thing is the engine light came on quite a lot, nearly every time we took it in, the mechanic cleared the computer and found no issues.
