2006 Ford Escape Manual Features & Reviews
The brakes are decent enough. Although the 2006 Ford Escape somewhat lacks when it comes to safety features. Might be one of the reasons for calling it a family SUV, you cannot sport around in this vehicle. Dual airbags and side airbags with the higher trim, with seat belts for the rear passengers, is what you get. We miss the ABS on this one.
Fuel economy is another factor of criticism. On average daily usage, the SUC might churn you a mere 8 to 10-km/l. on the highway, this ratio might rise to 12-km/l, but certainly not more than that. There are no variations when it comes to the engine, so one has to settle for this caveat. As far as interiors are concerned, the driver and the front passenger get a better field of view owing to the higher seat placement. The single-level feedback system reflects upon the general information like speed and fuel tank. You also get a standard central control system for your daily radio or for controlling the temperature of the cabin, which is very spacious. There are sufficient legroom and headroom both for the front and the rear passengers. The SUV is not designed for seldom off-roading but it might not disappoint you if you do it every occasionally.
The tires provide a good grip on the ground, and there would not be any such problem as skidding or slipping. Overall, if you are on a low budget, but are looking for an SUV that is capable of commuting with your family, the 2006 Ford Escape Owners Manual could be an excellent option for you!
