Used Ford Escape for Sale in Des Moines, IA

I absolutely love this vehicle. It is amazing. It's both compact on the outside but very roomy inside. I feel like I have great control over the vehicle. I love how roomy the top section is (I don't feel too close to the roof). We get excellent fuel mileage since it is a hybrid and it takes flex fuel so we save extra money there. We are able to fit a large jogging stroller, a kids bike, and diaper bag easily in the back even when we have the back seats up. It is an excellent family car.

I really like how overall reliable it is. My past vehicles have been somewhat dingy and older cars, and I could not travel long distances with them. I also had to constantly pay for minor repairs. These were also both Ford vehicles, but driving around short distances they were still reliable themselves, so I went with another Ford vehicle, though this time a newer model. I went with an Escape. So far I have had no troubles with it. Even though it was not brand new, it still runs incredibly well. It is a very smooth ride. I have not been worried about it failing on me at all. However, the gas mileage is not great. In town it is alright but on the highway you won't be able to get far before you'll have to fill up the tank again. There are also a lot of controls I am unfamiliar with. There are so many buttons that I never know what will do what, so it can be confusing sometimes.
