Other Comments

I bought this car after rolling my Monte Carlo. I was still stiff from the accident while car shopping. The Five Hundred is the first car we looked at. Every time we looked at something else I found myself comparing it unfavorably to the Five Hundred. My husband teases me about checking out the forum at leas every few days. I just remind him of how much time he has spent the last few years at F-150 online. I really enjoy reading different opinions about the car.
