Escape the Great North

[Jewels]

Hello!
I purchased my first 4x4 last summer, my 2003 Escape. I have abolutely fallen in love with it. It got me through so much last winter and there wasn't a day that I couldn't drive it.
I look forward to talking to people with similar interests as there is no forum in my city for this type of vehicle. I want to get excited about it, as it is such an incredible little truck. People laugh when I call it my trucklet, but it can face almost as much as a BIG 4x4 and still use half the gas LOL.
I look forward to learning a lot and sharing this incredible little machine.

Thanks

Jewels

Welcome to the forums Jewels
We bought a Escape last year for my wife, I wish we had discovered them sooner. We drive hers more than mine usually. We only bought her the two wheel drive, not sure if they still come in 4x4. Solid little trucks thou.

they sure do...my co-worker's husband just bought one...mine is a 4x4 I couldn't live here and not have it in there. Yup they are incredibly sturdy!

To be completely honest with you I have NO idea. LOL
And the tires I am running now (stockers) are about 200/tire...I can get them through a buddy for less I am sure..but yeah about 200/tire. I want to put BFGoodrich all terrains on it but not for a while
