Good buy

I love my escape. This car is the perfect size for me. It is great on gas. It's also excellent for rough winters in Michigan. I would definitely get another one.

Great car for younger crowd

I'm leasing a 2016 Escape Titanium and I absolutely love it. It's got the 2.0 EcoBoost engine which is smooth, fast and great for highway passing, and great on gas. The interior is comfortable and has enough space for myself and my friends, as well as all of our stuff. The Sync 3 System works flawlessly with my iPhone.

Lease Ford Escape

I'm in a 36 month lease and couldn't be happier. the Escape is comfortable and just roomy enough to fit 3 kids in the backseat and a full size dog in the hatch! Lots of space for the low price tag!

The most expensive car I've ever owned

I love this car. For the higher price I paid for this car there are things that are cheaper in it then in my 20000 dollar chevy car. The carpet and seat fabric are not as nice as my chevy. For 15000 you would think the little things like these items would be nicer then my chevy. The things I love is the back up camara, the phone connection, the telescoping steering wheel and the power seats. The reason I choose these car over the chevy is the jockey box in the middle of the front seats.

2016 Escape, FWD SE with no options

Great compact SUV with fun to drive flair. (I got a nearly-new, year-end closeout model.) Pluses include: 'just right' size and cargo room, quiet and comfortable interior, nice styling, peppy performance with good MPGs from the standard 1.6L turbo motor, good visibility thanks to the ride height, large mirrors, and standard rear camera. Minuses include: non-intuitive infotainment panel design, and a bit too much hard interior plastic. Still, overall a solid entry in the small SUV market, and one I would buy again.

Worst car I have ever owned

I hate this car. Can't drive it in the rain or if it's a little windy. Outside noise is terrible with windows up. Seats are very hard. Suspension delivers a hard ride. The engine doesn't mix the fuel properly. The top of the engine gets covered with oil. The GPS and mapping program is garbage. My phone won't sync with the car either. The car is over priced. I wouldn't buy another one at any price.
