This Realtor enjoys the 2017 Escape Titanium

The Escape Titanium is a classy looking vehicle with the "bells and whistles" I need as a Realtor who basically lives in my car.

Ford Escape

Love the steering wheel adjustments and the great sound system. The drivers seat can adjust for height for good sight of the roadway. Soft ride with excellent suspension. Quick speed with small engine.

Enjoy the comfort, style and gas mileage

Enjoy the comfort, style and gas mileage. Like outside color as we live on dirt road and the dirt doesn't show as much.

A very nice overall vehicle.

This car meets all our needs. Space, fuel economy, performance. We opted for the 2.0 ecoboost. This thing really scoots.

My Second Escape

Love this vehicle so much I bought a new one and my husband kept the 2012 Escape as a second car. It?s sporty but roomy and good on gas.

Very unhappy. Need to sell the car asap.

I miss the old model Escape that was changed with the 2013 model. The older model was the best car I ever drove. The newer model that has been made since 2013 is much smaller and cramped, with less foot room in front and back and gives me neck, back and head pains. The cargo compartment and back seat is much smaller. The passenger seat cannot be lowered and is way too high for anyone over 5'3". I've been trying to sell the car since a week after I bought it.

Fun to drive and great gas mileage

Love this car. Has LOTS of room (especially in the front), fun to drive and great gas mileage. I am averaging over 24mi/gal around town. I have as much cargo area in this as I did my Edge. Love the color also. I gave excellent on reliability but have only owned it for a year, so don't really know. Interior is very pleasing, everything is lit up well

Not bad

Not a bad car but I do not like the ecoboost where it turns off the engine when you do a full stop. The rest of the car is roomy, sturdy and the drive is not so smooth that it feels like driving on a cloud, which I hate.
