Is the Ford Freestyle going to have a CVT transmission?

Ford should also be doing this rather than jumping ship. I find it a dumb move by Ford that just as awareness of the CVT is gaining momentum with the general public they decide to drop it.

Are there any problems with the Ford Freestyle?

Ford is not as rich as they used to be so they are watching everything very closely. The other problem is there just aren’t many rebuilt transmissions available for the Freestyle. I personally don’t see nearly the troubles on the Freestyle as I have in past new vehicles that Ford has brought out.
