My in-laws had been talking about donating their 2005 Escape to a church, instead of trading in. I then told them I'd buy it when it came time to trade. But, then the local Ford dealer offered them over $6000 for it and I passed it up. I was expecting it to be more in the $4000 range.
Real nice rig, but I'd much rather have the four cylinder version just for fuel mileage reasons. We take a long trip every year together. Four adults, one kid, and a dog all crammed into their Escape. Got almost 31 MPG on the last trip in that new Escape which is pretty impressive. The 2005 3 liter V6 did the same trip and same load at 25 MPG. My father-in-law (retired Ford engineer) keeps a log of every drop of gas used. That 2005 Escape had a lifetime fuel mileage average of 17.5 MPG which is still pretty good, considering they do a fair amount of stop-and-go city driving. Maybe I'll get their new Escape if I live long enough.
