Ford Freestyle punishes

[99prixgt]

So there was 4 of us on are way to the movies with friends. We were in my friends dd Ford Freestyle, his evo8 mr is in the shop being built . So we see this early 90's hatch in front of us at a light revving and acting cocky. His exhaust routing was on the opposite side of the hole in the bumper, indicating it might have been swapped. So we get next to him in the freestyle lol (it has 3rd row seating) we get next to him @ 40 and give 3 honks, we pulled and we can hear the civic banging gears, we get 1 1/2 cars on him and we let off, the look on the kid's face was priceless Ive never laughed so hard in a while.


WIN^


Fail^

Good kill. I've heard those freestyles roll pretty good. Aren't those the ones beating the BMW X-3's?

lol, the free-stee is weird because the transmission it uses (not sure what its called). Its like it has one single gear, so when you floor it the rpm stays down at 6 and doesn't move. Every time the other car shifts, the free-stee pulls because it just stays in its power band
