Ford Escape – A great car to ESCAPE to college!

The Ford Escape S is a great car for a college student!  It can carry friends, camping or road trip gear, and personal items to college on move in day!

The versatile seating and many cargo combinations makes it perfect for storing small items and can be reconfigured to carry those bulkier items across the state or country.   You want to carry lots of cargo? No problem. The rear seats fold to provide up to 68 cu. ft. of cargo capacity. There is interior concealed storage, as well as driver, passenger and rear door bins.  Use the 2nd row under-seat storage to store all the extras that you don’t need immediate access to.  Accessing the rear of the vehicle is also a breeze, thanks to an available hands-free, foot-activated liftgate.

The Ford Escape S is engineered to deliver the performance your lifestyle requires. The many driver features it has will make driving enjoyable and easier with several driver-assist features.   Driving around town or off on a week road trip with friends is not a road trip without hearing and singing your favorite songs.  Ford Escapes are equipped with 10-speaker Sony audio system, AM/FM Stereo single-CD/MP3 Player and SiriusXM radio w/a 6 month prepaid subscription.   Also available to add to convenience at your finger tips is a Voice-Activated Touchscreen Navigation System.  Safely finding your way to your destination is made easy with this system nearby.

Safety is important as you send your student away for the first time.  The Ford Escape comes standard with a rearview camera which is perfect for backing out of those crowded campus parking lots.  The 2018 Ford Escape received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA. In IIHS testing, the Escape received the second-highest rating of Acceptable for the driver-side small overlap front crash test and the highest rating of Good in the other four conducted crash tests.

We know you are already spending a lot of your education, so save money on gas.  The Escape’s base engine is a 2.5-liter I-4 with 168 hp and 170 lb-ft of torque. The Ford Escape S delivers an EPA-rated 21/29 mpg city/highway with front-wheel drive.  Good gas mileage for a college student’s small budget!
