Right size for me

I love my little SUV! It's the perfect size for me. When I do have others with me, there is plenty of room for legs and all!! Perfect room for groceries or luggage!! So fun to drive!! Love how the seats lay down, so much room you can sleep back there!!

My favorite SUV

I love my Escape. I wish Ford was still making this style. More cargo space than current model. The only problem I have is the front wheel drive does not get up slight inclined driveway if it’s snowy or icy.

Everything I need in a vehicle

This is my second escape the first one I had for 10 years loved it. Upgraded to the 2012 Love this one just as much if not more. It’s a limited so it has all the bells and whistle’s. Seats are comfortable and heated It is cold in Minnesota during the winter.

Love

I love my little Katscape! I just wish they wouldn't have changed the body style so much. I cannot see out of the back as easy. It's not about using the back up camera, it's more about changing lanes.

Perfect Little Car

Have always been a Ford driver but usually pickups and Mustangs. Due to physical issues I decided to try the escape and have been highly satisfied. Due to back issues it's hard for me to get in most cars without hitting my head and were also very uncomfortable on long drives. My Escape's roof line leaves me plenty of room so as to not hit my head and long drives I am never uncomfortable. Plenty of cargo space, easy to load and plenty of passenger space. No problem with acceleration or cruising speeds and great gas mileage. Just turned over 100,000 miles and needed some minor repairs that weren't very costly. Will be sad when the car meets the end of the road as being on a fixed income may prohibit me from replacing it with another Escape?

2012 Ford Escape

Love my truck except for the rusted fender above my tires! Apparently this is a known problem with this vehicle and the company won’t do anything to fix it. If Ford would offer financial assistance to fix the problem them I might recommend it to more people.

2012 Ford Escape

Purchased this vehicle used as certified. The V-6 engine averages 24 MPG combined city/HWY/ It pulls my boat effortlessly. The limited addition has all the bells and whistles you could ask for. Comfortable ride and roomy cargo area. Sorry the new style doesn't still offer the same engine.

Powerful vehicle that I would recommend to anyone seeking to buy a car. This vehicle is strong and balances on the road properly. Likewise the interior is wonderful. I love this car and finds hard to trade it for anything other vehicle.

Love my Escape

Love my Escape, older style and all. Not crazy about the new designs. Hopefully this style will come back around. The new A/C vents and way of working is not as great as what I have. If I need a new car for some reason, I will try to find another 2012 before considering a newer model.

Awesome

This is my 3rd escape and I have enjoyed each one. Fun to drive and great on gas. It's easy to get in and out of. I love the way it handles. It has loads of room for a month worth of groceries or trips to Lowes

Great all around vehicle.

It has been a vehicle I can wear work clothes in and accomplish pickup like duties and turn around and wear a suit and go out for a night on the town in style. Very versatile and reliable vehicle that in a low key fashion does the work of a pickup while maintaining the class and comfort of a stylish SUV. I've driven Ford pickups all my life but now in my seventies on a fixed income makes it difficult to buy pickups and I've found my Escape makes a great alternative. Due to back injuries I can't fit in vehicles with a low roof line so for me it's either pickups or my Escape. Love the new lightening but way out of my price range.

Great car.

It's a nice car. It somehow manages to be smaller in overall size, roomy inside, and powerful under the hood, all at the same time. Drives smoothly, turbs like butter. Everything you could ask for.

Escape (2012 model) is a great car for my needs.

This is my second Ford Escape and I enjoy driving it. It is a very dependable car in all kinds of weather, even deep snow. We bought this car the year before Ford changed to the touch screen technology. I find this to be a plus because it is easier to adjust all the settings while keeping my eyes on the road. I have had some rust spots removed from one rear fender, so it still looks like new. Read seat flatten when I have to haul things

Little red

This car serves us very well. Bought the car used because we had an Escape before. We love to drive it as it’s just big enough to get around town and you can pack it for a long trip. Handles great and is very easy to get around as it’s a smaller vehicle.

Love this style. Hate the newer designs. If it is illegal to text and drive..... why do we have distracting computer screens in cars?????? This is my 2nd used Escape, I'm not sure what will be my next vehicle, I do not want the computer screen.

Great Vehicle

Bought this truck in 2012 and has never had any major problems with it. Scheduled maintenance has kept this vehicle in great condition. I have no complaints and have no thoughts of selling or trading it.
