We’re sure you could think of a thousand different reasons to share with your man on why getting an Escape is pivotal to your existence as a couple. But start with these 10 and see if they don’t land an Escape in your garage by next Monday.
- Towing package allows us to pull boats, hot tubs, sasquatches, carnival rides, and other assorted creature comforts we find along the roadside.
- Sporty, all-new look for ’08 Escape matches your own sporty, all-new look for ’08.
- With 200 hp at your toes, you’ll spend less time reading bumper stickers and more time in the passing lane.
- Escape’s approach, breakover, and departure capabilities mean you can go ahead and enter that monster truck contest you’ve had your eye on.
- Moose everywhere will hear of and envy your available 4WD system.
- Retuned, fully independent suspension and innovative torque distribution allow you to confidently slalom at your leisure.
- Hybrid drive mode has über cool technology (probably from a downed UFO): friends will line the block to see the gas engine boosted by electric traction motor.
- 5.7L/100 km city and 6.7L/100km highway in the Escape Hybrid means you’ll be saving loonies by the bucket. Good thing there’s 66 cubic feet of cargo to hold all that jack.*
- Available steering-wheel-mounted radio controls and voice-activated SYNC music and phone system make you master and commander of your audio universe. **
- Handy built-in compass and available nav mean sports-bar televisions are always mere moments from discovery.
