i've been thinking about upgrading to an SUV. i like the land rover freelander alot. you dont see too many on the road, like contours. have a little individuality like contours and it seems like a very nice truck with tons of features, and mroe room for the 2 year old. if anyone has an experiences or comments on them, they would be greatly appreciated

the freelander has a 2.5 liter V6 engine with a similiar output to our contours. i know land rover is a ford product. think this is the same or updated engine as the duratech

It has a Mitsubushi V6, IIRC. Sweet little SUV, other than that.

No. It is from the K-Series engine series from Land Rover. I'd save the $ and get an Escape. Unless you are getting one heck of a deal.

The Mercury is the nicest one of the bunch. That'd be my pick.
If money was in my pocket though - I'd get the Land Rover Sport.

dude - you just posted this in this same forum like 2 days ago.
I was at first a little lost because I though I had already replyed to your post. Then I realized you just made a new one with the same question.

im honestly not a big ford fan. contours are the only ford i've ever liked. that being said, i love my contour. and also, i originally posted in general and in common interest and this thread was moved to here. sorry for taking up precious web space. some of you guys seriously get worked up over this stuff like its your own damn message board. get off my back

im not on your back - but you who profess knowledge of a message board should know to not double post its bad internet etiquette (or however you spell that)

i didnt double post in the same forum. i thought it was valid in both. was just hoping for more responses. didnt think it would get moved. this is a petty thing to [censored] about. all i'm saying.
