Decent family car
Aug 02, 2023

Just like any old Ford from this error, the interior is a bit plastiky and looks and feels on the cheap side. The 3.5L V6 delivers decent power but still you have to take under account that this SUVI is a bit on the heavy side so it is not really anything beyond adequate. I have not had too many reliability related problems since I owned it. Based on what I have read online, it appears to me these cars have a expiration date around 150,000 miles and I just passed 150k in mine so I may be listing it for sale soon. All and all the car has served its purpose carrying the kids to and from school, football practice and took us on some long family drives. I have never loved it but it is kind of hard to love a heavy SUV with almost no personality but purely as transportation I do not have much to complain about.
