One more for Ford

Well went out today and got my wife a new car. We have been wanting to get rid of the KIA (especially me) so we went shopping. Ended up getting an 05 Ford Freestyle. Not a bad little car. at first glance all I thought was "grocery getter" but it grew on me and drives awesome. Has all kinds of safety features for the kids and has traction control AWD for the wife. Keep telling her she will love that this winter.

Now what mod to do first????

Congrats Steve. Freestyles are pretty decent from what I hear. Glad you go another Ford.

Way to go. I may have to look into getting one of those. What kind of mpg does it get.

We were looking at those, but the local dealers didn't have a awd which we need. How do you like the CV transmission. It was interesting to drive. We drove a Mercury Montego AWD. Nice car to drive, but not what we wanted.
