Love it! - 2003 Ford Escape
By wiley - September 21 - 2:00 amThis is a the best vehicle out there for the price. The exterior is spectactular. I love the sporty look. The interior has lots of room, and its very practicle for maneuvering in and out of tight parking spaces. I went from driving small compact cars all my life to driving this, and I have had no problems.

Great vehicle - 2003 Ford Escape
By Jim Greer - September 13 - 2:00 amI bought a 2002 Escape, Loved it so well, when the Limited came out in 03, In had to upgrade. This is an excellent vehicle. The ride and quality of the vehicle is great. The dealership I bought from is one of the best I have ever dealt with.

Driving Fun! - 2003 Ford Escape
By ThePrincess - September 8 - 2:00 amThis is my first SUV, and I love it! I drove several others in the same class (e.g., Hyundai Santa Fe, Honda CR/V, Toyota Rav4) and none of them came close to the Escape for comfort, appearance, and just plain driving fun! Ive never been a recreational driver before, but this little car is changing that!!!

My Company Vehicle - 2003 Ford Escape
By repcritter - September 6 - 2:00 amI recieved this vehicle as a company lease and I LOVE It. As a pharmaceutical rep and travel a lot and need plenty of space for samples and promos. My vehicle has to be comfortable and spacious. While my Escape is not huge, it is sufficient for my needs and the drivers seat fits me well. My Escape has leather interior and 6 CD stereo and power seat. The visibilty is great due to the elevated chasis and well located windows. All controls are well within reach and the ride is not at all like a truck. My kids think it is SPORTY! and love to ride in it. Overall, the quality of my Escape is superior to all of my previous company vehicles.

My 1st SUV!!! - 2003 Ford Escape
By SUV for me - September 6 - 2:00 amThis is my first SUV, so I cant compare with others. But so far, I have no complaints. The car chassis feature is why I chose it. I have been a Ford leaser for many years and did not necessarily wish to stay with Ford, but after checking other makes and models it was this vehicle that overwhelmingly won me over. I am happy I did the research and have been enjoying the easy ride, the ample space and the absolute comfort of my SUV!!!
