Love the interior, hate the performance
The 2008 Ford Escape i have is the 2.3 L, 4 Cylinder, XLT trimmed SUV with a lovely interior/ exterior, my only big issue with the escape is the power when compared with its fuel economy. sure its no prius or hummer, but when a friends 5.7 L hemi in his truck gets better mileage and more power, maybe its not the greatest engine. The 3.0 L V6 found in some escapes of the same year is better but not much, personally i am slightly a gear head so i mean take my word with a grain of salt but if i were you and had bought an escape, i'd consider a turbo upgrade, not for power, but economy.

Reliable vehicle for all aspects of life
This SUV has been a fantastic purchase since the beginning with no issues to name. We have enjoyed the spacious interior and the added peace of mind that comes with the larger engine and 4x4 drive train when camping or on wet roads. The vehicle drives very smoothly with a great bang for the buck!

Ford Escape luvs snow and road trips !
ABS, Traction Control, Stability Control with 4x4 capability. Safe and stable ride that took us (and our toys) in comfort from the west coast through treacherous mountain passes to Calgary, Edmonton, the Kootenays, and the Crowsnest Pass. It's as comfortable going out on the town as it is going camping or downhill mountain biking.
My Rav4 was not near as stable in icy conditions. Suprisingly imilar highway mileage, but the Ford mileage is not as good in the city as it is larger and heavier.

reliable, spacious, well maintain vehicle. Don't want to sell but need more room
I have no complantes about this vehicle. I wouldn't even be sell it but I have 3 kids in car seats so its a little small in the back. There is lots of cargo space. The gas milage is great. I went from a ford focus to the escape and there wasn't a big difference in price.
Whoever buys this vehicle will be happy.

Love my Escape
I've owned my Escape for a year and a half now and still love it! Such a peppy vehicle, and very easy to park and maneuver.
I love the exterior look of the escape, square and small, not too feminine nor masculine, great look and I'm disappointed that they changed it so drastically.
I feel that the interior dash could be a bit better, however it is easy to use and practical.
This vehicle is amazing in the winter, you feel like you can take on anything!
Fuel economy is fine, I drive the V6 model so not great but no bad, I would definiately buy it again.
The only complaint I would have is that it is a bit noisy on the highway, however I do love my escape and would buy another!

Great SUV - Why I went to Ford Escape & I will buy again
I Had Chrysler'S & they had expensive transmission problems.
Had GM'S and they had a lot of electrical problems
In fact, CTS Caddie lease had to be paid out early to get out of all the electrical & computer problems that GM refused to fix.
So I went to Ford ...picked the Escape with V6 4WD drive train
because the plow service on the roads in Markham stink !
Still driving this SUV today (2013) & still totally safisfied with it.
Drives great in winter - very agile, maneuverability is great.
4WD is the only way to be driving in Ontario in winter time
as they never plow roads I use to before rush hour.
Never had an accident & I attribute that to this vehicles excellent all round visibility, antilock brakes & a great 4 wheel drive traction & stability control that leaves other cars behind.
Get this vehicle if you want to feel safe driving in winter.
NEVER USED THE 3 YEAR BUMPER TO BUMPER !!!!!
WARRANTY AS IT WAS NOT NECESSARY !
AND THAT SAYS IT ALL !!!!!!!!!
BEAT THAT ONE !

Very Reliable SUV
I bought the '08 Escape in the summer of '07 and it's still running strong almost 6 years later. In that time the maintenance and repair costs have been less than $5000.... that's including 4 new tires, all the minor maintenance upkeep costs, as well as new front brakes (pads & rotors). On average I can get 8-9L/100Km on the highway and around 12L/100Km in the city. Gets even better when towing, which it does comfortably on a regular basis. Plenty of cargo room even with a child seat installed. I'd recommend the Escape to anyone looking for a light SUV.
Cheers!

Vehicle has been phenominal
Just a few small issues.
leaky rear hatch glass ( new weatherstrip )
very roomy interior , AWD awesome in snow.
3.0L V6 has plenty of pep.
the biggest complaint is updating the factory navigation system. You have to buy a disc for the upgrade ( $200.00 )
