  A very competent vehical - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Gator Fan - July 2 - 10:46 am

  Our family has enjoyed our Freestyle on trips, and it is not bad around town. It is easy to park. Mileage has been 18 to 20 in town, and 25 to 26 highway.

  2006 Freestyle ... skip the minivan - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By RealHawker - May 26 - 10:46 pm

  Limited Black leather interior is great looking. Layout and NAV system are nice features. I wouldnt get this car in anything but the Limited style. Get the captains chairs in the 2nd row if you have 2 or more car seats. You can scoot between the rows, if you take out the console, or you can climb over it easier than taking out the car seats to get in the back.

  Sure Winner! - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Born Free - April 22 - 8:06 pm

  It does not make sense to me why people have to buy a more expensive SUV like a Benz when they can get a Ford Freestyle. My 2006 Freestyle SEL has got everything I need to drive in comfort, safety and economy. This CUV is recommended by the Consumers Reports magazine and its reliability rating is way better than a those CUV with double the price. It has a very pleasing exterior design. Not too aggressive like a Murano, and not too dull like a Honda Pilot. It drives like a small car and the view is like a penthouse on the road. People complain about the dashboard reflection issue but not really a problem. A bit noisy like a tiger when climbing up the hill but I like it like it is.

  Great Family Car! - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Chris & Abby - April 16 - 12:53 pm

  For a family of four with two car seats this car is great. The car offers ample passenger and cargo space in all configuations. Additionally changing seating/cargo configurations is very quick and easy. Its a great cross between a station wagon and SUV without sacrificing comfort, road handling, or visibility. In addition it has great fuel economy for its cargo and passenger capacity. If you have a fairly big family and dont need to tow much weight this is the an excellent choice.

  Fords Best Kept Secret - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Central Virgina - April 4 - 8:35 am

  I was at the dealership looking for an Expedition or Explorer when the salesman pointed out the Freestyle, and I am glad he did. I bought the last 2006 the dealer had, it was on the showroom floor. Mine has AWD, extra airbags, safety and security option, rear AC, 60/40 middle seat, individual climate controls up front. It is dark Pearl Blue with a pebble interior. The car has a low center of gravity and is fun to drive and handlles really well.

  The Rear Brakes are Not Fit For Purpose - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By allanedgar - April 2 - 9:56 pm

  The rear brakes are not fit for purpose. After only 30,000KM the rear brakes started grinding. The pads were finished and the disks were scored. What a joke! My last car, a Honda Accord needed front pads only after 100,000KM and rear pads after 160000KM. No rotors changed. Is Ford going to recall this car and fit rear brakes which are Fit For Purpose

  I fought my husband for this car - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Shogrl6 - March 24 - 5:36 pm

  I fought hard for this car - I do enjoy it but after 3 months I had to buy 4 new tires. I am on my third cracked windshield and they are not cheap! My biggest complaint is the interior - I cannot keep it clean. Any moisture stains the cloth! Im going crazy with this.

  Not too shabby... - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By schilke - February 10 - 1:13 am

  Was considering a Magnum, but when I test drove this, I knew it was the right choice. I am a bit wide in the leg department, and this is a bit cramped up front, but not too uncomfortable. Like the techie aspect of the CVT and the AWD. Well see how it performs!

  Something you can fit in - 2006 Ford Freestyle
  By Mike & Lora Perkins - January 30 - 8:44 pm

  My wife and I just purchased our new Freestyle limited addition back in Dec 06 and I have to say we love it. I wanted an SUV that I could fit in and at 6.4 and 270lbs thats not easy to find sometimes but this vehicle was everything we wanted and more, its comfortable to ride in, easy to drive and it was loaded. Our son loves the rear DVD player and most of all I had plenty of room! There was no more of this getting out of my vehicle and my knee was on the ground or up on the dash as I was driving. The Freestyle was just the right fit for our family and our budget, I dont think I could have purchased something else this nice and loaded for what we paid for it, Im very happy with it.
