I like this reviewer. He is fair in his appraisal and thorough with his details/analysis. Some reviewers are overly negative and personally annoying.

I recently purchased this vehicle and honestly could not be happier!! Great ride, great fuel economy for the size, and I am a personal fan of just a simple model. Its been fantastic!

Really nowadays the base models come with so much equipment that they’re more than enough for most people! I’m happy you’re liking your new ride, you’re going to have a blast with it. Thank you for watching!

You can take off the black plastic strips on top and it reveals mounts to attach a roof rack.

Are you serious? I thought these were just the rain gutters up top and that you couldn’t touch them. I tried doing some research online and on KZfaq but couldn’t find anything on them. Thank you for letting me know, that’s good to know, and makes the Escape Active even better. Thank you for watching! -Ceall

It’s a really good looking SUV with a great infotainment screen to boot! I think you’ll continue to enjoy it for a long time, thank you for watching, have fun with your new Escape, and thank you for the kind words!

I have The 24 Escape Active on Order with Tech Pack 1 with 13.2 inch screen. Vapor Blue. The 3 Cyl power did impress me in my Test Drive and the Cylinder Deactivation when Slowing will also Increase gas Milage!!

Very nice, the Tech Pack is a great option, the Co-Pilot 360 will help it be more easily resell-able a few years from now. I think you’ll really enjoy it, this is a great daily driver all around. Are you in an Escape now? Thank you for watching! -Ceall

Hey Cal great review! For an entry level base model that is really well equipped. The 3 cylinder would be a hard no for me though despite how peppy it is. How have you been? We've been in the 80s here the last few days and I am not complaining brother! Hope all is well and take good care!

Dude that is awesome we are almost there man! Just got one last snow system moving in this weekend, and if all goes well I think it’ll be the last system to come through but we’ll see. We’ve seen snow in April before! The 3-Cylinder is still hard for me to get used to too. I don’t know why. I mean I got used to my Turbo 4 cylinder Silverado, I guess the term 3 cylinder just sounds funny is all 😂 Glad you’re doing good, I’ll make it a good week ahead and I’ll be back at it next week! 🤙🏻 Thank you again for watching my brother, always appreciate you!

Oh wow well hope it does not hit you guys too hard. We are set for more rain and cooler temps this weekend which works for me. You know when Audi had a 5 cylinder engine it was always weird to me lol! Always happy to see your videos and see how you are doing! You take good care brother!!@@CEALLIFORNIA

@@jameswalsh6131 I’m a sucker for the RS3, the TT-RS, I love a good 5-Cylinder. That one I liked for some reason. I think it’s because with the right exhaust they sound like a mini Huracan 😂 Thank you my man I’ll see you on the next one!

Will there be a 25 model or is the 24 the last of the escape models? Because I want one. I just have to save up for it, I don’t like to finance it’s such a huge rip off with the interest and insurance.

@CEALLIFORNIA 19 күн бұрын

2025 is slated to be the last year for the Escape. There’s info that it may be replaced with a full EV at some point. For now, we have hybrid and non-hybrid examples to choose from. Let’s hope this isn’t true, and that a gas powered Escape continues to be made. Thank you for watching!

@elainebrown3867 3 ай бұрын

I just purchased this SUV it’s not too good on gas, I probably will keep it a couple of years not a vehicle I want to keep long term.

@CEALLIFORNIA 3 ай бұрын

That's all good! I usually don't keep my vehicles more than 3-4 years myself. For the past few years I was only keeping my cars a year or two, but I've gotten better! 😂 I'm sorry the fuel economy wasn't as good as you expected, I hope that it serves you well for the next couple years until you find your new car. Thank you for watching!

I drive for living and I have 2021 SE model. It has the worst seat ever! The seat has almost no butt cushion when I seat my butt sinks in so easily hurting my back so much. I thought I had back issue but when I drive other cars I can drive for 15 hrs straight but not this one. Also the head rest push head too forward where it hurts your neck. I have seen several drivers with the head rest turned.

@CEALLIFORNIA 4 ай бұрын

I’m so sorry to hear that, there’s nothing worse than an uncomfortable seat for a long drive. The Toyota Corolla Cross was the same way for me. Horribly uncomfortable for the lower back after after just an hour behind the wheel. I hope you can get a replacement soon, thank you for watching! -Ceall

@@CEALLIFORNIA Got a question. My buddy bought 2024 Ford Escape. And we both agree that the brake were hard to press and it was harder to stop the car. It is like lot of time within few inches of pressing nothing happens but yet it is hard to press that far in too. Is this normal?

@CEALLIFORNIA 8 күн бұрын

I would get it checked out to be safe. Compared to the F-150 and Explorer, the Escape’s brake pedal felt good. Felt just like an Equinox brake pedal, so… normal. Like a car in that class’ brake pedal should feel. I would get it looked at just to be safe.

I just bought one of these little fellas. I call it my soccer mom special. I think it sounds like a sewing machine. I was a mechanic back in the '80s. Haven't really worked on too many of these new cars, so the noises from the engines and acceleration and all this never sound right to me. I guess I just like the old muscle cars

Yeah I would take a V6 in my SUV’s if I could, but to be honest I always had better luck with 4 cylinders than I did the V6’s. I wasn’t crazy about the sound in the Escape, but she SCOOTS, and as long as it’s under warranty I wouldn’t have a worry in the world. Enjoy your new ride, these are a pretty fun choice in the SUV space! Thank you for watching!
