I am very happy with my purchase. This van is economical and spacious. The interior is well thought out and comfortable. The back is large and spacious to hold lots of cargo. Gas mileage is very good, especially for a cargo van. Looks very good, and after my graphics were applied, it has drawn a lot of interest and subsequent business. Hands down it is my best advertisement. I get many comments on how good it looks. After 26,000 miles, no problems encountered...I still love it.

I have the Titanium Long Wagon. I really have enjoyed this vehicle. It drives like a small car and is very nimble. The 2.5 engine is okay, it isn't fast but is plenty capable for the vehicle. I have averaged 22mpg with 2 adults and 3 kids riding in it. The seats are pretty comfortable for around town. The passenger area is good for a small family. The cargo area behind the third row is small without having the seats slid all the way up. With the seats folded down there is a great amount of cargo space. My only complaint of the cargo room is the back is only 46" wide. I wish it was 48" wide for carrying a sheet of plywood. I traded my truck for a family vehicle and that is the main thing I miss. I like my little wagon but then again I like odd vehicles.

The 4 wheel disk brakes are very nice with smooth, positive and very controlled braking. Allows the smoothest stopping I've ever been able to do. The engine/transmission combination is the best I have ever driven. Snappy if needed and VERY smooth acceleration with shifting done quietly and without notice. The vehicle I have is a cargo van with trailer package, large mirrors and rear windows. It has no back seats. The vehicle has big front door entrance and is one reason I purchased. I am older and stiffer that used to be and my previous vehicle was a 05 Scion that was the easiest to enter of any car I have owned. I changed to Ford as Scion messed it up by making it sleeker and lower and harder to enter. The Ford gets 25.9 mpg which is acceptable to me now as gas has gone below $2.00 in my area. I have had one problem with my trailer package. When it is rainy or snowy, (undercarriage is wet) the warning lights tell me I have a faulty trailer light even though I'm not using a trailer. I went to the dealer for repair and the mechanic said he could not find a problem. I asked him if he wet the underside and he said no! IDIOT! I now have over 40,000 miles on the vehicle and it still gives me the the warning. I haven't been back to the dealer yet as I am in Virginia and the dealer is in Rock Hill, SC. It has recently been bought up by the Sonic Distributorship so I should probably go back and try again. This time I will wet it down before I take it in. I have checked the mileage against what the vehicle computer says and it is accurate and 25.9 is still my mileage. Other than this, I am very satisfied. Update with 60,000+ miles on vehicle. Still enjoying it as before. Mileage has improved a little and trailer hitch is still a problem. Overall, very satisfied.

We shopped almost every SUV and VAN even bought a used Honda Odyssey but quickly sold the Honda. Did our research and found no other vehicle fit our needs. This is the best of both worlds - rides like a luxury car but larger and better capacity than the van. Every vehicle we looked at that had fold down seats not one of them were flat when folded. All of them had some sort of slope or had to be removed altogether. This has a perfectly flat cargo area with the seats folded down - perfect for dog crates. I have nothing bad to say about this vehicle in fact I've never liked a vehicle like I do this one. The price is also very reasonable compared to SUV's and Van's. A great wagon with a great price.

Cabin is comfortable, fairly roomy for a smaller vehicle, but not much in the way of storage compartments. Handling is nimble, very compliant. This vehicle is "peppy" enough around town and actually fun to drive - but not a lot of "giddy up" when merging onto the highway. Ford annoyingly chose to leave out a way to switch off interior cargo LED's.
