Considering buying an 08 Escape

Hi, I'm new here. Considering buying my 1st hybrid next year and the Escape seems to fit me the best. I have a feeling gas prices may go over $5 a gallon again in 2009

How do you like your Escape ?

Any problems with it ?

How reliable is it ?

Thanks

Re: Considering buying an 08 Escape

You will not find a "new" 08 on the lot. You need to look towards the 2009 models. If you desire to wait well into 2009, then you need to order a 2010. Ford does not produce enough Escape Hybrid models to meet demand.

Re: Considering buying an 08 Escape

You may be right about the zero miles 08s

but there seems to be over seven thousand slightly used 08s for sale on AutoTrader nationwide

Only a handful on ebaymotors though

I'll book your bet on that and give you two to one odds.
