2025 Ford Escape Active AWD: Is the BASE trim the way to go?

Your local Ford dealer probably has a dozen or more leftover 2024 Escapes in this Active trim and they’re heavily discounted ($5k-6k off MSRP). This presents a great value when compared to Kia Soul or Nissan Kicks. Another compelling reason to go for a 2024 model is they had more standard equipment such as power closing liftgate and power driver’s seat (plus some brightwork around the side glass). Let’s thank Mike for another solid review.
