Sucks!! I got this car for my rental while the tibby is getting fixed, this thing is ginormous and has a small v6, you can barely feel the acceleration. Also, the shift points seem really messed up, it doesn’t seem to want to upshift when it should. Also, it has a very cheap looking interior and won’t rev to 6k.
eh what were you expecting?
its a awd house
lol…glad somebody got to drive it and inform somebody of how shoddy a fucking FORD is.
Seriously, what were you expecting? haha
my mother recently aquired one of these beasts. wayyy to big. can’t see a damn thing when you are trying to park/turn/drive anywhere. only good thing is that it does have awd. not to mention it is not easy on the eyes…hideous. ugh :meh:
I am driving a rental Ford Fucus while the XTERRA gets fixed.
Holy tin can!
They should call it the Ford Casket.
Edit: In order to get close enough to the steering wheel my knees were jammed in the dash.:bloated:
i bet the dodge charger is worse.
we rented one a few weeks ago in LA - and the interior is so shitty, it defies explanation. The cheapest plastics, vinyl and rubber you can imagine - 3 different types of contrasting plastic textures on the dash, uneven gaps, awful seating support - just a whole piece of shit in general. lets not talk about the floaty ride or the piss poor rear visibility.
:word:
it must be a base model then, mine has a telescopic wheel, im 6’ with no probs
I recently drove a 2006 ford cargo van with the triton 5.4 v8,that shit was pretty beastly for a van.I’d buy one IF my line of work required one, no questions asked.
Five Hundred should have the same motor or atleast the 4.6,most newer fords are pretty underpowered though.
this ones the base model so I don’t even get AWD. I wasn’t expecting much, but I thought it would be at least decent.
