I bought this car in 2009 and I am happy to own the car, almost 2 years from now. This is one of best in class and gives you pleasure of driving an SUV. I never came across any issues while driving this car. Its very comfortable for family travelling long distances.
I am though concerned about the fuel at times but with such a powerful engine, even the mileage seems fine. I am not sure why Ford stopped this model since it was best in its class.
