Detailed review: |
Very impressed with the overall design, quality of assembly and fit, and overall look. Works well for a large dog gated behind the second seats. Fits 5-6 large suit cases without stacking above the seat height. Good riding comfort and space (I am a large 6'6'). Overall, very pleased.
Specific Items: Mileage to date (@2,200): 30 mpg. At fast highway speeds, with AC on, about 26 mpg. Interior trim quality is very good. Sound system is rated highly (especially by the teenager). Handling and braking is very impressive. Good road feel and manuvering. Good visability and large winshield viewing.
Wish list: heated front seats.
Strongly considered Toyota Highlander, Lexus SUV... FEH had better visabiilty and value/cost. Ford dealer experience and support has been exceptional. |
Also considered: |
2005 Toyota Highlander

Vehicle purchased: |
2005 Ford Escape Hybrid
