Nice car

Just what I wanted for the price. Will be able to carry musical equipment that I use all the time being a working musician. The size of the back with seats folded down is great.

GREAT value

Fit my price range, does everything I really need a car for, will be able to tow a trailer for fishing and duck hunting and was thinking I need a truck, but with this car there is enough room to get the boat, decoys, and gear to the river bottom and back.

Ford Escape SE 2018

I absolutely love this vehicle. The 2018 handles easier than the 2016 I previously owned. I also love the white gold color. Ford has truly amazed me with their awesome updates.

Luxury Comfort but at a lower price than others...

We love our 2018 Ford Escape! We ended up with the Titanium trim level which has all the "bells and whistles." Comparing it to similar vehicles (Foresters, Sportages, Santa Fes) we have no regrets. With the Escape we feel you get a car that sits a little higher than the others but still has a smooth ride. At the trim level we purchased, we feel like you are driving a luxury vehicle but not near the price of the others base models.

Very easy to drive. Love it.

Design, size, cameras, trial of SiriusXM. Smooth ride and well to maneuver. I would recommend highly to friends and family. The radio system is fantastic, as well as the phone/bluetooth features.

Futured Problems within 1 year

This vehicle performance is max 3 years. You will experience need of service within 1 year. I would not recommend the purchase of this vehicle if you are expecting long term ownership
