Great mileage, plenty of room and really a pleasure to drive. On a long highway trip I got about 25 MPG. The CVT transmission is amazing, almost feels like you are driving an electric car.

This vehicle replaced our '02 Expedition. We have doubled our fuel mileage and seem to have gained room for the occupants. Shopping can now be accomplished without folding down the third row seats (Expedition). Living in a hilly terrain the engine size is just right (not the fastest on the road but considering mpg just right). Ford has a winning vehicle with the Freestyle which we feel is a better buy than the Cadillac SRX .

The design of this vehicle is outstanding. There is plenty of room for people and luggage with comfort. The leather seats are extremely comfortable with a multitude of settings for the front row. The all wheel drive gives me as good gas mileage as I got in my Odyssey wagon and much better than my Mountaineer with added safety, security and comfort. So far, no problems whatsoever!

Great Ride

We purchased this vehicle from overseas and without a test drive. We had a Honda Pilot which we loved but was a bit short on rear leg room. We love the Freestyle, it is truly roomy inside and extremely versatile. I love the leather seats, and the endless amenities. The Freestyle drives like a dream and is very responsive. Within the first few days of driving it, I had someone pull right out in front of me and had to make a very quick stop. The Freestyle stopped on a dime and its responsiveness saved an accident. It only has a few hundred miles on it, but I feel quite certain that this is a vehicle we will enjoy for a very long time.

So far I love everything about it. It handles like a small car and offers space of a minivan. It is a very classy car and the CVT transmission is very smooth and responsive.
