A big car for the money - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By Jeff A. - September 7 - 9:26 pmWe had been researching vehicles for some time, comparing the Chrysler 300, Toyota and Buick. This car had everything we wanted for a great price. So far gas mileage is right on target with sticker. It really feels like you are in a much more expensive automobile.

Ford 500 - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By John - July 1 - 1:10 pmA great car on the highway and easy to manuever in town. The high seating is a pleasure for getting and out. The engine is more than sufficient when teamed with the CVT. Good mileage.

Great Sedan - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By Bryan - June 7 - 3:30 amPurchased my 500 in January. Features are great. Very stable and responsive handling. Very comfortable to ride in. Really roomy car. Pleanty of pep. The trunk is huge as is the back seat. Dual climate controls and 6 CD/MP3 player are nice. Great visibility. Well laid out cabin. Overall I am really pleased with the car. I highly recommend this car. Transmission is smooth, ride is quiet.

Great car so far! - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By Claire - April 3 - 5:13 pmThis has been a nice car to drive. Only problem I have is the large rear view mirrors. I am small and they tend to block vision when turning corners, but the gas and brake pedal adjustment is great for me. My husband loves it as it is so easy to get into and out of as he has knee replacements. Lots of room and plenty of storage bins all over the car. Trunk very roomy. Only wish it had a trunk release that lifted the trunk lid up by itself. It is a little heavy for me to lift up. Interior is really attractive - ours is leather.

Great car w/ great service - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By AAA - March 31 - 9:00 amThis car is safe, comfortable, reliable, good on gas (not great in winter weather for gas usage). Seems to have gotten worse over the years in winter time even tho I service regularly. Nice driving view, can sit up high, I like that. Fits 5 people very comfortably, nice stero and 5 changer. Great in winter snow. Great open road driving car..relax and travel.

Ford 500 - 27,000 miles - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By Peter George - March 31 - 8:43 amWe got the 500 in December 2004. My wife is the primary driver. The car is great in the winter weather (we live in central NH) and is a very good highway car. On our trip to FL last winter we averaged 24.3 mpg.

cool dad - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By John Ronnebaum - March 30 - 4:03 pmMy wife and I both love this vehicle. We first were looking at trucks and they had a Five Hundred in stock. We test drove it and fell in love with the comfort, the horsepower and the room it has. It has more leg room than our Windstar. Our three kids would rather ride in the car than the van. As far as power I wouldnt want to get on it on gravel. Luxury without the price. We have over 11,000 miles on ours; no complaints at all.

Awesome - Highly Underrated - 2005 Ford Five Hundred
By mike w - March 25 - 10:43 amThis car is definintly not for racing, but for a luxurious ride with the family, this is it. This has the largest trunk I have ever seen and the ride is so smooth. The 500 sits higher than other cars so you feel like youre driving a SUV but youre really in a car. I love it.
