Hi, I have an older 2003 model. It drives very well. No problems. I bought it because it's more compact than the large Toyotas. Drives more like a car. Steering & handling good. Power is good. 4.0ltr V6 is well tried & tested.
This is the biggest selling SUV in America for many years.
No problems at all with service & none for spare parts if you visit the Ford Service centre. I was just out there on Saturday to get a new cap for the brake master cylinder reservoir which some-how went missing. They looked it up on the computer - cost was QR10. Plus a new rubber bumper for the rear door latch was also missing - again no problem at all. Cost QR5.
