The Ford Escape has been a great fit for me in all aspects of my life. Having driven an Explorer before I was worried I would miss the size of my old vehicle but in fact it is the opposite. The Escape has seen me through two moves and I was able to fit everything that I needed to each time. It has also been great to take on road trips or any time I need to pick up something at the store. At the same time, being a small SUV, I have been able to take it into the city with ease and never have trouble parking it. It gets great gas mileage as well. It is stylish for an SUV and the interior materials are durable. It has held up well and I have not any problems with the structure or the mechanics. I feel very safe when driving it, and it has been great in the New England winters. This past year was the worst winter in Boston's history and I did not have one issue in the snow. The interface is easy to use, and I find all of the buttons and knobs accessible while driving. Overall its a great car and I can't recommend it enough to family and friends.

After owning the Escape for a number of years, I have been quite satisfied. All repairs have been normal wear and tear, with the exception of a recall I was reimbursed for with no trouble whatsoever.
