2007 Ford Freestyle - Almost time for a new car, but this one has been wonderful

This has been a great reliable family car. The 3rd row was what drew us to this car because at the time there were only a few crossovers on the market. There is plenty of space, and its very easy to drive. We've had the car for 10 years, and it's gotten us through the young children phase. The transmission is different than most other cars. It has the same type of transmission as a snowplow, which makes it extremely fuel efficient. That was another selling point at purchase. You won't win any acceleration contests with this car, but that makes it safe for the family. It has in the last year developed some squeaks and wobbles which can be attributed to its age. I wish this car was still on the market because I would buy an updated version of it in a heartbeat. I don't like the comps For... (more)

Story

We've taken many trips in this car, and it's seen us through raising our babies. Two of our three children rode home from the hospital in this car. it definitely has a piece of my heart.

Pros

This car is extremely easy to drive. Its been very safe and reliable. The space for the gas mileage is outstanding. The car really gets amazing gas mileage when in cruise control on the highway. It's been fun to see how far we can get on one tank of gas. The seats are comfortable, and there are more than enough cup holders. The car runs very quietly and the outside noise control is great when traveling. We have had one minor fender bender in this car, and it held up really well with minimal damage to the car and passengers. The interface is extremely user-friendly, and all the features are...

Cons

There are very few cons to this car. The biggest issue we've had is the seats stain very easily. Even water leaves a dirty looking stain. We've tried to have them professionally cleaned, but after an initial look of cleanliness the stains returned a few weeks later. The acceleration leaves a lot to be desired. The type of transmission that makes it so fuel efficient also makes it slow to accelerate. Not really a big problem for a stay at home mom with three kids. The plastic piece on the bumper looked aged really fast, and eventually flew off while we were driving down the road. The deale... (more)

2007 Ford Freestyle - Best car I've owned.

I recently purchased the Ford Freestyle recently . We have gone through so many cars it was nice to finally find a reliable one . We have children so we were looking for a non- bulky SUV. We were looking at 3 row subs but they were all to big and bulky for our taste. After doing some research we found the ford freestyle. We bought the car offline and it was amazing. The inside was clean, it was a very spacious car. We have three children so it was always hard finding a vehicle with enough space for us and three car seats, let alone strollers, groceries, etc. We were able to fit our whole family comfortably in the car and the best part was you couldn't even tell it was a 3 row sub ! It wasn't to big or bulky and fit us perfectly. Such a great car.

Story

We would take drives to downtown Dallas at night and see the skyline and the buildings light up. The car was comfortable enough for everyone to sit back and enjoy the ride.

Pros

The car was very spacious for a compact sub . It wasn't big nor bulky . We did but it from someone so it was pre-owned . The car came to us in tip top shape . The seats were big enough to fit car seats and the seats were adjustable . We were able to manage the A/C on both the driver and passengers side to different temperatures . The cars built in radio/stereo worked perfectly . The car also had a mirror up top so we had a view of the kids without having to turn around fully to see how they were . The passenger and driver seats were comfortable . If you move the seat to your liking it woul... (more)

Cons

One of the only things I didn't like about the vehicle was the trunk . I have three kids and they require strollers. I get that its a compact sub but the trunk could only fit one small stroller. We would have to open the side doors and put other items by our feet because there wasn't enough space in the trunk. The trunk is deep though but for bigger items it doesn't work so well. Our check engine light came on several times for no reason but then it would turn off. My only complain would be the trunk space because for our family we travel with a lot of items and the trunk simply wasn't big... (more)

2005 Ford Freestyle - Well-rounded car

This vehicle is great for the purposes that I intended to use it for. The all-wheel-drive functionality of the car is very helpful with driving in snow, rain, or dirt roads. It stays in control, and it handles very well, it never slides, and it has great traction. The acceleration of the car is better than expected for a large SUV-type vehicle due to the V6 engine that it is powered by. The braking system works very well, and I am able to make quick stops when necessary and that helps prevent accidents. What I do not like about the car is the poor gas mileage. It can range anywhere from 19-22 miles per gallon, and I find myself filling up the car every week or week and a half, just from commuting to school and back. I would enjoy driving the car much more if I did not have to worry abo... (more)

Story

This car was taken on a family road trip to the state of Maine, a seven-hour drive, and it was able to handle the four people in the car. The long distance was no problem for it either. The sound system kept everybody entertained.

Pros

All-wheel drive, trunk space, number of passenger seats, acceleration, powerful motor, and sound system.

Cons

Poor gas mileage.
