Ford Escape: Is it a good car?

Is the Ford Escape a good car?

It is actually quite hard to buy a "bad" car these days, but quite easy to buy a "bad car for purpose". Ford's Escape is one of several light SUVs on the market that would suit many suburban Aussie families to a tee. That is to say, doing a little light four-wheel-driving, taking the kids camping, or eating up thousands of kilometres on a road trip. If you're wanting a tar-burning performance machines, or something to tackle the local black diamond-rated 4x4 course, buy something else.
