The overview

The Monterey is a slightly upscale version of the Ford Freestar, and both are freshened versions of the Windstar. Overall, the Monterey lags behind the competition. It features a third-row seat that folds flat into the floor when not in use. The second-row seats are too low. Stability control is available. The engine is still noisy, and road noise is pronounced. Handling is more responsive than the old Windstar's, but the ride is unsettled. Fit and finish trails the class leaders. The Monterey has been discontinued.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
