Used Ford Escape for Sale in Northfield, MA

This car is exactly what I need it for, being transportation. Gas mileage is okay and I could downsize to a more fuel-efficient car for more savings. The interior is falling apart and the car requires yearly upkeep, which is common for older cars. The engine light continuously comes on though it has been checked by multiple mechanics and is safe to drive. As a student who often commutes to and from two schools about three hours away from each other, this car serves me well in the commute and rarely breaks down, only occasionally having trouble starting up after a cold night. Aside from the wear and tear that comes with being an older car and not knowing the care of previous owners, the car is spacious, having room for five passengers as well as adequate trunk space for my belongings and hobby items, such as climbing gear, suitcases, and school supplies. I once went on a road trip with four friends and we all fit comfortably, along with suitcases in the trunk. Furthermore, I was able to move myself and one other person into and out of college for four years just using this car, and had no trouble fitting all kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom furniture into the care with all seats in the folded position.

I love my Ford Escape because it's the perfect size SUV for me. It's not too small, and it easily works both in town and feels good while on a longer trip. It's very quiet inside which was a big consideration for me while shopping for this vehicle. It also "gets and goes" when you step on the gas which is necessary in my opinion for merging into heavy traffic. The heated seats feel so cozy and are a must for living in a cold climate. I love the silver color which is an outstanding silver with no muddy undertones that some cars have. The fold-down split rear seats provide lots of room for me to make Home Depot runs and to take animals to the vet. There is great visibility, too. And again, the size....it's perfect. When I compared it to the smaller SUVs that were more expensive, well no comparison. The only cons I can think of are I wish it had better gas mileage, and I have issue with my tires always showing low air pressure. Also, the Bluetooth does not always work well and will not pair with my phone. Annoying, especially after you just stopped for gas and are trying to listen to your favorite audiobook on a long trip.
