Besides minor/moderate repairs I've had to make throughout the years, I've been overall impressed with its endurance. I like driving an SUV as a opposed to a car because of the comfort driving. It's easier to drive in the snow here in Michigan. I love the spacious back seating area and trunk. I love the ability to drop the back seats to haul bigger items. I love going to yard sales and estate sales to find furniture and my SUV can hold large items with ease. Next best thing to a pick-up truck.

I purchased my 2010 Ford Escape as my first vehicle. I instantly fell in love with the compact yet roomy interior. I like trucks but didn't want something huge as a first vehicle, and I believe this is the perfect in between.
