Should I buy a used Ford Escape now or wait for the next model?

Great value with added features. Comparable to a jeep compass but with a more powerful engine. Nothing seems to be missing for me! It has 2 usb plug ins and 2 cigarette lighters for charging all the things.

Why it stands out
The 2023 Ford Escape stands out as a compact crossover with an upscale, tech-forward feel. It offers an impressive array of safety and infotainment technology, and its available powerful engine upgrade gives it extra passing speed for shoppers who want more punch. The Escape also has a handsome design that helps it feel more polished than a basic commuter SUV.
At the same time, the 2023 Ford Escape is not without drawbacks. It may feel a bit cramped for some shoppers, and its interior materials can feel cheap. Wind noise is another downside, and it is priced on the higher end of the segment, which makes its value proposition less compelling than its feature list might suggest.
