DH needs a new car. He's driven Ford Explorers for many years. He needed a good 4WD for winters out here in the country. But the gas mileage is horrible. He really wants to stick with Ford, since he likes the one in the city, which is directly on his way to and from his work.
He seems to want a Ford Escape, which is a "crossover" SUV. It has "intelligent 4WD". It's considerably smaller than his Explorer, but he's looking for better gas mileage. I would have preferred he go with Honda, but they are so far away.
My concern is that, even though the salesperson says they're just as good in snow, maybe it won't be enough to get us out of our very long driveway in snow.
Just curious if any of you have had any experience with a Ford Escape.
Thanks.
