I dreaded moving from my Subaru to a minivan, but I love my Freestar! Bought it used (it was a corporate lease) and saved about $15,000 off new price. The 4.2 liter engines gives me plenty of power and considering the size of the vehicle, I'm not unhappy with the fuel economy. I've gotten about 18 mph so far. I like the feeling that I'm driving the vehicle, it's not driving me, like with the Caravan and Sienna I tested. I will buy an extended warranty just in case. Time will tell.
poor and unrelieable

I will never own another FORD again. Where do I start. The motor is flat and lifeless, the transmission is sloppy with bad programming; no wonder it gets terrible gas mileage (18-20mpg highway). The brakes are soft, the carpet is cheap, the rear is noisy on the highway, the rear floor is more uneven than my lawn. After spending 6 months with it and reading additional reviews, I realize I made a bid mistake buying this van. It is the highest cost to own minivan out there. I would not recommend it to anyone. Save your money and buy something good.

Smooth ride, car-like. Have only had vehicle for a few weeks and 1000 miles. Kids love the DVD player.
Excellent car that feels safe to drive.

Big but not too big. Comfortable and great sound system. Low road noise. Great acceleration and more.
Solid but spartan Minivan

This is my Fleet Vehicle for work; provided new after having driven the Windstar for a year. I LOVED the Windstar features, the Freestar was a downgrade for interior comfort, in my opinion. I do 35,000 miles per year, mostly highway driving, so the interior is important to me for 10 hours per week. In short, the seat design was uncomfortable; especially the angle of the immovable headrest for a 6'-3" head. The thin plastic interior paneling felt and looked like polyethylene Tupperware. Reliability, mileage, exterior styling were excellent. I have the original brakes, tires and only normal maintenance is required.
Freestar won my heart!

For anyone who has been looking at Minivans, you can't beat the Ford Freestar for the money. The torque is unbelievable (4.2L) and the third row seat is great. I'm not sure if I'll ever use the tailgating feature, but it's sure nice to have it if you need it. The way the seat folds to the floor is the best design. I can store pretty much anything in there. I'm very happy and I can't believe I've found a minivan for my wife that I enjoy driving.

I have not had any problems with this van in the 1 1/2 years that I have owned it. It drives great, handles well, great performance. It's fairly comfortable, and it's very easy to operate the fold-down seats.
Comfort and fun all in one
