Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"The car is in overall good condition with everything working, but has some minor scratches and wear & tear marks consistent with it's age and use. It has never been in an accident, but driver door was repaired due to a tree branch hitting it. Was professionally fixed."

 We bought this car new in June 2006 and have been the only owner of the car.  It's been a great, very practical, reliable and useable car that we really hate to sell.  We are selling it for our business financial reasons, otherwise would have kept it for many more years.  Everything is working on the car, with the battery being replaced in May 2006 and new Pirelli P-4 All season tires were installed in December 2006.  The tires are still under warranty as have only been driven about 10,000 miles with them.  The car has had been serviced regularly according to schedule and we have all service records that you can inspect.  The brakes were replaced recently and are in good condition.  The spare tire has never been used.  This is a very safe 5 star safety rated car.  Both front bucket seats have power adjustments and can be tilted down.  It has AWD all wheel drive which has let it drive it safely through all kinds of weather.

The car can hold up to 6 adults comfortably, with all passenger seats including front passenger seat, able to be folded down flat for a large cargo area.  While car drives great and is in overall good working condition, there are minor scratches around the car's exterior and interior which are consistent with it's age and use.  There is a small rust spot on roof that may have happened from a leak at a parking garage.  We have included photos that show a representation of these.

Please review all of the features and options included with this car.  It's loaded with cup holders and storage space.  The 2nd row bucket seats flip over for easy access to the third row.  There is a good amount of storage area behind the 3rd row of seats.  The transmission is very smooth and car has more than enough power.  Full set of controls on steering wheel, plus one can program from it the information center that also includes the speedometer.  Please note that the listed mileage was as of the listing day.  The actual mileage will vary as car is still being driven.

Please contact seller if you would like to see other photos.  While we feel the starting auction price is very low for this car, we would consider other reasonable offers.  We bought this car new and have been the only owners.  We have met other Ford Freestyle owners over time and all love their car as much as we do.  We consider it Ford's best kept secret as they never seemed to market or push this car.  One reason is that during this time Ford also owned Volvo on whose platform this car was built on.  We feel that they didn't want to steal sales away from Volvo and basically let the car sell itself.

J.D. Power study identifies top seats for your tush

Tue, Aug 29 2017

File under News your fanny can use: The seating systems in the Ford Escape and Edge, the Audi A3, Chevrolet Cruze, Kia Cadenza, Porsche Cayenne and Toyota Tundra received top marks in a new J.D. Power study on seating and seat belt quality and satisfaction. The J.D. Power 2017 Seat Quality and Satisfaction Study asked more than 77,000 new owners and lessees of 2017 model-year cars and light trucks to rate their vehicle's seats and seat belts within the first 90 days of taking ownership. The survey is broken up into seven vehicle segments and scored on total seat problems per 100 within each segment, with awards presented to the seating system supplier. Canadian auto supplier Magna won three of seven first-place awards for its seating systems in the A3, Escape and Edge. Ireland-based Adient got top marks for its seats in the Cadenza and Cayenne. Lear Corp. won for the Cruze, and Avanzar Interior Technologies scored highest for seats in the Tundra. J.D. Power says its study is intended for automakers and suppliers with quality and satisfaction information to be used in developing and marketing seating systems. "But the results are just as interesting to a consumer audience," the company says. "After all, some drivers spend a considerable amount of time behind the wheel, and it's helpful to know which vehicles offer the most comfortable seats for those long commutes." Ain't that the truth. Ford was the only automaker whose seat systems, both manufactured by Magna, received top honors in two segments: the Escape for mass-market compact SUV and the Edge for mass-market midsize/large SUV. J.D. Power says it used 22 attributes to measure seat quality, three measures of seat belt quality and 12 to measure satisfaction. Awards were presented to the seating suppliers.

Ford won't be releasing GT500 lap times for the 'Ring, or any other car

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

Trucks have towing capacity, EVs have driving range and performance cars have Nürburgring lap times. What do all three have in common? They should all be taken with a grain of salt. Currently, there is no sanctioned way to record lap times or verify production-spec cars - a lesson we recently learned with the 2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo - and until there is a way to do so (and there probably never will be), we'll never officially know the actual time it took for Ford to lap the 'Ring with its ultra-powerful Shelby GT500.
After posting a Ford-made video of a 2013 GT500 running around the 'Ring, the guys over at SVTPerformance.com (an enthusiasts forum not affiliated with Ford or SVT) wanted more answers. They got in touch with Ford's Global Performance Vehicle Chief Engineer Jamal Hameedi, who said until there is a way to verify the times and inspect the cars, Ford will not get involved with lap-time wars. In the email, Hameedi pointed out that the 'Ring is a useful tool in that it allows a wide spectrum of track conditions, but until there is a governed way to record times, there is no way to accurately compare cars head-to-head.
And as much as some may not like it, Hameedi speaks the truth. It really isn't possible to compare times from one car to another, unless those cars were lapping the same track at the same time with the same driver. Not that any of this means there won't be continuous wars by fans and manufacturers alike... in other words, feel free to voice your opinions in the Comments below.
