  Fun to drive, needs a bigger gas tank and pads on the armrests. Besides that it is an awesome SUV. Had a jeep b 4 this and this is much better in the snow.

  Fantastic Value Ford Escape for 2003 - 2003 Ford Escape
  By hammysdad - July 21 - 2:00 am

  There is only two Ford Escape for 2003 that I find other vehicles in the same class beat our vehicle with: 1. rear cargo shade that insert like a toilet paper roll is cheaply made and does not have a handle like many others to pull toward you to cover your cargo 2. the storage in the rear cargo is not as nicely appointed as others. Other than that nothing touches it for style, quality, and value.

  Hard to beat this package - 2003 Ford Escape
  By indiatree - April 17 - 10:00 am

  The new Limited is fantastic. Plastic black bumpers and trim have been replaced on the Limited with all metal, painted, unicolor bumpers/trim which VASTLY improve the look of the vehicle. Build quality, grade of two-tone leather seats, and grade of materials is MUCH improved from previous years. (My brother has a 2000 XLT). Drive is easy and fun. Good acceleration. Road and wind noise have been reduced noticably from prior years. Comes standard with all available options: heated premium leather seats, premium sound system, sunroof (in CA), towing package, reverse sensing system, power front seat, auto head lamps, + others.

  I bought the escape in 2001 when they first came out and I have about 120,000 miles 0n it and, I do about 1000 miles per week and it still runs like new. This is one of the best cars I have ever had. i really havent had any trouble with it only minor things. I would recommend this small SUV to anybody who wants a reliable car.

  Escape Fits Our Needs - 2003 Ford Escape
  By John E. Baker - April 11 - 10:00 am

  We looked at a number of "mini-SUVs." The Ford Escape fit our needs best. Its the right size (not too big and not too small), were confident that it will be safe and reliable, and its fun to drive.
