Miles Overview
The 2009 Escape is Ford's compact SUV, the one you'd cross-shop with a Honda CR-V or Toyota RAV4. It handles confidently in snow and ice, and the cabin stays quiet on the highway. The rear seat folds easily to open up room for dogs or cargo, and there's surprising storage for a small SUV. Some owners mention electrical gremlins like Bluetooth glitches and a sticky door latch, so it's worth a close look. The XLS is the value pick, giving you the same 2.5L four-cylinder as the XLT but skipping some convenience items to keep the price down. Its 2.5L I4 makes 171 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed automatic, which is enough for daily driving but feels strained on steep highway grades. You get 24 mpg combined from the front-wheel drive setup, which helps keep fuel costs low even if you skip the optional all-wheel drive.
