2016 Ford Escape SE 4dr SUV (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

1st off - it wasn't a turbo - don't know why they didn't provide for 1.6L Ecoboost. Less room than my Grand Caravan, but managed to haul what I wanted it to haul (well, mostly). Wish Ford (and others) still had split rear hatches so you could leave bottom closed and leave top open so you could haul 8' lumber - like they had on my 2004 Santa Fe. Comfortable ride, Nice lines and appearance. Was an SE, but the electronics were adequate. WIll consider leasing another Escape when lease ends - albeit I want a few more options than cam on this one. Since I'm turning this in with less than 36,000 miles, someone is going to get a nice car when they buy it off lease.

This is my second Escape bought for a college aged daughter. The other one is two years old and we really like it. Big enough as an SUV to feel she is safe on the road, good safety features. She is a techie person so she loves the Bluetooth system, GPS, and USB interface between he radio and her ITunes file. Plenty of room for getting things back and forth to college. Good get up and go with the EcoBoost fuel system. Stylish in her eyes. And Dad likes driving it when she lets me.Bought as a Demonstrator so got a good discount.
