2004 Ford Escape Reviews

I got this SUV a year ago and I love it, it works good and I picked a good time to get a 4x4 because we had a ruff winter last yr and it worked well, alot of times I had to go out threw the snow bank after the plow went by and never had trouble.

Spunky, smooth and easy to manouver. Has alot of room for a smaller suv. Excellent on the highway and good in the city. The only complaint I have is that it hass alot of raod noise. Fun to drive great handling, acceleration and braking are good as well. The appearance is nice I do like the styling of the 2008 escapes better but this is good for its age. Gas mileage is as good as can be expected I drive alot and probably spend on average $120.00-$160.00 per month. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone.

First Escape was 2001 lease, loved it enough to turn in for new 2000 lease. Loved it enough to purchase when lease was up. Then at 50k miles the engine blew a rod. Okay, I did drive it hard, but common. That was still a young engine. The car is a zippy V6 with 200 horses and almost drives like a car. Great for snowboarding trips and general utility needs. Still like to drive it, but will buy a Toyota FJ Cruiser if this car dies again.

Owned it for about a year and a half now and its awesome.  It handles really well for an SUV especially taking it around sharp turns.  It has been in 2 front end accidents and held up amazingly well especially compared to the other vehicle.  I always fill it with premium fuel because it has a nicer ride. The shifting and acceleration is a lot smoother.  It also gets better mileage on premium.  I put really nice tires on it last summer and now it handles bad weather like a beast.  Could probably use a more powerful engine but I suppose that is where it gets its great mileage from.  But seriously, 200HP in an SUV isnt really quite enough.

it gets good mpg and it is quick
