What were your needs when you bought this car? Has it fulfilled those needs?
Old 2016 Everest getting high k's so needed a refresh, familiar with the model and never had issues with it. Suitable for work deliveries etc and also family life with weekend sports, road trips and camping.
What were your initial thoughts about the car? Tell us why it appealed to you.
Previous experience meant I knew what I was in for with the Everest. Pleasantly surprised with more features as standard, a few tweaks here and there meant a nicer car to be inside. Facelifted model grill and rims look sharper compared to previous.
What have you discovered since owning the car?
Reads speed limit signs. While my old Everest had SYNC3 this seems to work better in the new car e.g. auto updates via wifi actually complete
What do you like/dislike about the car?
Love almost everything about it. Versatility for work, family and even for around town if needed. Don't like the acceleration lag for standing starts (although sport mode fixes that nicely). Would be good to have map updates via wifi also rather than relying on this to be done at service time or using Fords clunky flash drive process.
