2005 Ford Freestyle Preview summaryImage

Here's a riddle for ya: what do you get when you cross a car with an SUV with a minivan with a wagon? The 2005 Ford Freestyle! Available as both a two-wheel and all-wheel drive car-though Ford states neigher is intended for off-roading-the Freestyle seeks to make its own space in a crowded mid-size market.

The only available engine is a 3.0-liter V6 rated at 203 horsepower. The interior is spacious, with three rows of seating. The Freestyle is built on the same platform as the Volvo's S80, though with a significantly less luxurious feel, and a matching significantly less expensive price. The Freestyle isn't inexpensive, but it is not quite at Volvo levels yet.

All in all, a nice car that drives well in all weather.

I am a senior with disabilities. It leaves me limited in many areas. I was excited to find this vehicle and have the car dealer every dime I had for this vehicle. When they brought it to me I was grateful. But when I went to get in it the next day it wouldnt start. It took me three days to get a hold of them. They had it towed to a near by shop. It didnt have an intense I hadnt realized I replaced that. But when it got to the shop they didnt want to pay because it was a faulty battery and they said the auto shop was asking to much. So now I am still stranded and the vehicle is still at the auto repair place because they have refused to pay the shop and have refused to buy the battery. I drove this vehicle less than two miles. This auto dealer is not costumer friendly and I have them only one star because they have left me in a horrible situation. Because they can. I will never do business with them again and I dont recommend anyone else do either. Especially seniors that are dependent on honorable business tactics. Its really left me in a horrible position. They got my money every penny and now they dont care what happens or what position the faulty battery in the car I just bought has caused me. Horrible just horribleJul 30, 2024
