Used Ford Escape for Sale in Denver, CO

I purchased this vehicle after I totaled my previous one in a car accident. I wanted something that was heavy, had space for multiple children and pets, would run well on all terrain, had a lot of "get-up-and-go," and most importantly, would keep my family safe if we ever had another major accident. In addition, we had become accustomed to some of the creature comforts of our previous vehicle. So I looked at older models rather than new vehicles so we could also get some of the bells and whistles. The Ford Escape gives us all of those factors and more. We couldn't be happier with this vehicle. The 2011 model of the Escape has the older body frame that I like. It is more angular and solid looking, almost like a truck, but fully enclosed. The XLT has auto-sensing four-wheel drive, which provides amazing traction on slick, snowy, gravelly, and uneven road surfaces. We can stow gear in the area behind the rear seat or on top. The V6 engine provides a lot of kick. Just one step on the gas and we're going full speed on the freeway. It rides smoothly, without any rattles or shaking. It runs quietly and is comfortable inside.

Ford, has redesigned the Escape and it no longer looks, feels, acts or performs as an SUV. Granted, the previous generations were not truly SUV's, however, you weren't afraid to go over a curb with them or get dirty in them. The new generation is nothing more than a sedan with a little more ground clearance. Now, as a car, it is a nice vehicle, there is good room inside and the driver controls are mostly in good places. The rear cargo area is plenty large for a car of this class. The vehicle, I have has normal aspirated engine and it has plenty of power for the vehicle's size. Fuel mileage is very good too, I average 29-30 mpg on 95% highway and not much lower for city. All and all, I would recommend this vehicle if somebody is looking for a car, however, not a SUV
