One of my most favorite vehicle I’ve ever owned, which has been many. And extremely reliable I had a 2011 escape for about six years. With MS sync and a six cylinder. It was much better than any new car I can assure you. Unfortunately, a giant water truck backed into me at a stoplight. Now I’m still looking for another. The V-6 really put down the power. It was hard to believe. Really nice to see the four-cylinder has that much power I wasn’t expecting that.

I recommend you get a 2010-12 Escape Limited with Navigation. You'll have the most fun. I'm dreaming of one for the last 7 years. And if you want something a little bigger, get a 2010 Explorer. Not as large as the newer Explorers. Or check out the 2010 Sport Trac. I myself am dreaming of a 2010 Adrenalin with V8 and navigation package and all bells and whistles. In lightning blue. 💙😎

This biggest issue with the escape is how cheap everything feels interior wise. Pretty plain Jain suv lol so I tried spicing things up lol 🌶. I agree it also looks like the escape has more clearance on the bottom for off-road than other suv.

I have a 2010 XLT 2.5 FWD with 185k miles. VERY RELIABLE Common problems are rust, the fan speed only works on one setting (blower motor resistor) this was very cheap to fix like less than $100 & the ignition module. I drive doordash full time and the ignition module started messing up at 180,000 miles. I bought the vehicle at 130k in February 2021. Other than tires, brakes and fluid changes it’s been reliable.

On level ground, the I-4 gets about 1 mpg more than the V6 does with no grunt. I have a 2008 with the Gen 1 engine (3.0 V6 - no VVt). I live in the mountains and I like the ability to tow when I need to. I only use OD on the interstate and I keep it in the lower gears on all secondary roads. I get 20 mpg everywhere except the interstate, where I get 25 mpg with OD engaged. The engine is bulletproof. The square body is great for UTILITY - as in SUV - unlike the Gen 3 models.
