Ford FreestyleThe Ford Freestyle's roofline stands at 68 inches off the ground, and Ford has declined to put a label on it, either SUV or sedan. Keeping the Freestyle tall and offering all-wheel-drive seems to be attactive to non-SUV and non-Sedan car owners, and the Freestyle comes with low ground clearance, unibody construction, independent suspension and a overhead cam engine.
Did CVT fluid change with help of info here. Paid $126 for 6 qt fluid and filter with my 25% Ford employee discount. Vehicle was 2005 fwd with 60K miles in Mi. Filter was pretty black and glad I changed it. The drain plug torx stripped and had to notch with cut off saw to unscrew. Maybe its not a #40 torx? The hp filter housing torx bolts seemed to be #27 and not #25. Still I had to drill one head off one. I replaced them with allen head bolts. I have a 2009 TX too but I like CVT trans better and its noticably better on fuel.
