2017 Escape

I purchased a 2017 Escape SE in April of 2017. My Escape has the 1.5 Turbo. I have owned and restored a few muscle cars in my life. I have to say that this car is exceptional in every way, I drive it from So Cal to Reno about every two months to see my Daughter and her family. I travel highway 395 which goes from 1000ft msl to over 8000ft msl. I love the paddle shifters and the 1.5 Turbo it just never bogs down when traveling up a long grade plus on the way down I use the paddle shifters to control the speed. I am also very impressed with the suspension and handling as this SUV handles like a car, it also turns on a dime. I am presently looking for a new one ir a used one with low mileage on it for myself as I bought the car for my wife and she drives it more than I do.

My 2nd Ford Escape

This is my second Ford Escape. The SE model. It's just a great mid sized SUV that fits my needs. The car is economical and I like the new style of the 2017 grill.

Excited to Escape in it!

We have only had it two days and we are very happy with this car. It is roomy, comfortable and looks fabulous! It drives so nice and rides great as well. We especially like the back up camera.

Smallest & best car ever owned

I liked the style and handling of this car. The Ecoboost is great & economic to operate. The MPG is great.

Love this little cutie!

I was looking for a vehicle to lease. I love the new body style. I selected the Sport Edition for the black wheels. Very sharp!

I haven't had my Escape for very long but so far it has met all my needs. I feel much safer travelling in the winter with it.

Went from a 2014 to a 2017

Very reliable, I had a '14 and went into a '17 because of the minimal problems. Warms up quick in the cold, places to charge devices in the front and back. Great value for what I paid.
