I really like this vehicle. It is the second one I have owned. The first one was totaled in an accident where we were rear-ended at a high rate of speed. I chose to repurchase the same vehicle, but a few years newer for several reasons. The most significant was that three of us walked away from a high speed collision that sent us into a spin; yet we didn't flip over and stayed on the highway. Furthermore, I owned that vehicle for ten years and got 75% of its original value back. After shopping around for a couple weeks, the only vehicle I felt comfortable with getting the same value, safety and versatility was a newer version of the one I had before. The only complaints I have is that the air conditioners seem to start to have issues on all the Fords I have ever owned after a few years (and I've owned a dozen over the years) and small electrical issues come and go intermittently like wipers, interior lights, sunroofs, windows, locks, not functioning properly. The Escape is far more versatile and can adapt more than one expects for hauling items you wouldn't expect a small vehicle to be able to haul.

I love my Escape. It is easy to handle. She has a wonder backup camera that has a big screen. There is also a sync program, so I can talk on the phone hands-free. The car is roomy, also.
