CONS: auto transmission is a bit shifty, low mileage in the city

REVIEW: I've had the car for about a month. Solidly built and strong engine. It has been to Tahoe and loves the snow. Got 25mpg driving all highway. City mileage driving around SF could be better, but the fact that the car is narrow and relatively short make it practical in town. ...

CONS: gas hog

REVIEW: I bought my first SUV in Nov. and love it. It's a 'o5 used XLT 4x4. I've always had small 4 cylendar sports cars and needed to get a family car with 2 teens now. It's comfortable in the back seat for the kids and friends. I went back & forth on what SUV to buy but loved the ...

CONS: Wish it got better gas mileage.......driving in city I get about 16mpg

REVIEW: Overall, I LOVE my '05 Escape. I bought the XLT Sport, very sporty, smooth ride, handles like a dream, love every feature about it,.....except the gas mileage. No road noise that others have complained about. Would definently buy another!! ...

CONS: annoying vibrations on doors when music bass is loud, not enough driver's leg room.

REVIEW: I just bought my Escape 2.3L 4x2 XLS a week ago and i bought it because i love its stance, and looks great. The ride is good and shocks responds well on pot holes. Steering is easy and generally fun to drive. I'm just annoyed by the vibrations on 3 of my doors when my audio music bass is ...

CONS: could get better gas mileage

REVIEW: This V6 drives like a dream. I love it. Everyone that rides with me wants to know what kind of vehicle I am driving because it drives so smooth. I love the roominess inside, the auto shifter on the floor and the cargo room. It has a rugged look and looks stylish. It rides quiet and I do not hear ...

CONS: Just one little thing..

REVIEW: All cars I have owned have an AIR RECYCLE control which shuts out outside air. This not only shuts out dust from the road and exhaust from trucks and other cars but it also aids in helping the heater heat the vehicle quickly on a winter morning. The re-cycle control is lacking on the 2006 Escape ...

CONS: Wind noise, and what's with that tiny "sunglasses holder" in the ceiling?

REVIEW: I did a ton of research in May of 2005 when looking for a new car and ended up picking this one. Not once have I regretted my decision. Great car; handles wonderfully. I had a 93 Sentra before this, so the transition to SUV made me a little nervous...but I was comfortable driving the Escape from ...

CONS: Noisy.

REVIEW: This is my second Escape and is my company car. I am in the construction business so its on job sites all the time. Great handling and no roll over tendencies. Incredibly roomy for its size. Easy mobility in heavy traffic and confined spaces. Built solid. only downside is that it is somewhat noisy. ...

CONS: plastic interior, shifting, wind noise

REVIEW: bought the 4cyl. blast pkg. which means upgrade cd player and upgrade tires. peppy enough for a 4 cyl. and gets great fuel mileage. trans does shift awkward at times, I am not to impressed with all the plastic inside the vehicle. Ford could of used less plastic. It is the major drawback to ...

CONS: Everything else

REVIEW: This is my last vehicle from Ford, and my father-in-law sells Fords! The interior materials are cheap. The doors are as thin as my Escort doors were. The seat has no lumbar support. I'm still trying to determine whether the "leather" is vinyl or leather. The heat in the seats ...
