2015 is the body style and features I like. Great gas mileage and room to haul stuff.

The titanium package is wonderful. The large touch display is amazing. There are sensors all around the car which help you back up, hands free open the liftgate, and even lock your door simply by touching a sensor. The manual states some cars have blind spot recognition which my car does not have, and automatic parallel parking which my car also does not have. There are 2 recalls on my vehicle. One for a transmission bushing which made a noticeable improvement in my car, and a 2nd for a door lock which apparently can open even while driving. Scary but i was assured wouldnt actually happed. Im still super new to the vehicle but so far I love it. I love the back up camera. The car beeps when you start getting close to something which is great. My tire size is 235 45 19. The tires arent common so you pay a premium for them. My mechanic who has been in buisness for 40 years did not have the adapter for the lug nuts. The lugs on the car are a real specialty so if you snap one off or lose the adapter your probably screwed. Also having to put on a spare would be tough since my tire iron wont work on this vehicle. As far as driving i love the car. I love being up higher. Its nice to be up a little bit for your morning cup of coffee. Its nice that you dont have to step down into it. It seems to handle well. No issues accelerating up hills. The engine is fit for the task at hand. The car also has a hill assist so you wont have to worry about slightly rolling down a hill while you switch from breaks to gas.

This car is definitely good value especially the Titanium model. It has many features you find in more expensive cars

The Ford Escape boasts some good state of the art features that make it a suitable economical vehicle. The price is reasonable for a small to mid sized SUV/CROSSOVER, making the Escape a great value if you prefer economy and bang for the buck.

Compared to the Honda crv, Id say the escape has better pickup, its a very nice car, the power of a truck compact as a car
