Ford Escape Hybrid - 2006 Review

Purchased this vehicle because it was environmentally friendly and boasted of great mileage.  I traded in a Nissan Murano.  Surprisingly, it only got about 2 mph more than the Murano, drove like a truck, very uncomfortable.  The only time you get good mileage is if you do only city driving (under 20 mph).  Beyond that the mileage is so-so.

 Cheap parts:  The only place to hang clothing was all the way to the back accessible from the hatch.  There was one pull down hanger, that broke off the first time I used it!

GPS:  The screen is laughable, about the size of a game boy!  Due to miniscule size, no details could be shown.  Waste of money!

We gave up a lot of comfort for fuel economy and environmentally friendly car and it didn't pan out.  Traded it in 8 months (took a bath by doing it, but hated the car) and purchased a Honda Pilot.  Mileage is slightly less but makes up for it with the comfort.
