Have you ever driven a Freestyle, Mac? Don't make judgements before you know what the car's like.

My truck is sufficient in getting in front of traffic (Usually, sometimes its not so pretty)

I just hate the power band on it. I have to get the engine above 3Krpm before I feel any pull on my truck.

I would like my truck's low rpm performance more if it was a manual as I can get some underpowered engine to do some pretty neat tricks with a stick. Like my old Mazda B2600i with a 120hp 4 banger with a cracked head. That thing could merge onto the highway like it was nothing only because I had a manual in it.

Is it just me or do people ignore the smileys these days? No I haven't driven it. I am sure it handles great.

Sorry I can't sense sarcasm through emoticons and typewritten words.

I don't care if you hate Ford, but at least have a reason to hate Ford...not just because it's Ford.

I have good reason to hate ford. They were competition for the camaro, and outsold it, thus making it non existant in todays market.

The Camaro WILL RISE from the dead!

screw the 6 cylinders, even though they are easily 90% of the ones on the road.

If you are going to buy a small cramped car with a performance heritage and looks, why buy something that can't perform like one
