The Ford Escape is a happy compromise between fuel efficiency and passenger/cargo space. It has surprisingly good performance for a four-cylinder vehicle.

The size is perfect. Not too big, not too small. Great for grocery shopping. I love the sporty feel of the vehicle. Drives very nicely. The inside is comfortable. I am higher up, so I can see everything more clearly. I like the dual air/ heat feature so each person in the front seat can control their own temperature. I like the sync feature, which allows me to answer or make calls hands free. Sometimes the vehicle seems to lag when accelerating, and that is an issue. Overall, I am happy with the Ford Escape.
