No problem, JustBleedGaming. Thank YOU for watching!

Great View. I like the Escape update. However, I think a new transmission would help the fuel economy.

[@AutoAcademics]

You many be on to something, therealme812. We appreciate your comments.

[@JOESPILLZ]

What were those red lights on the garage door? Crash something? I have this exact vehicle and have never seen or heard of that.🤔

[@ryansvloggingit5492]

I like but for that much I'll go for g150 can you to a compareous ford f150 5.o liter vs Chevy 1500 5.3 liter and tell me what u think I heard that the Chevy frame rust because of foaming the frame instead of rust proofing where the Ford's f150 is all aluminum can you find out thanks auto man

[@AutoAcademics]

Hi, Ryan Belden. We tested the 2015 F150 kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=x2-iJWlA6K4 a little while ago and loved it, but unfortunately, we do not get many Chevy products and have not yet tested a Silverado 1500. We recommend you looking up any concerns with the truck online to see what you can find. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

Ustedes que ayudan a comercializar esta marca por favor comenten también las cosas malas que traen estas camionetas como son la caja de la dirección y la caja de velocidades estos carros fueron hechos para Europa y los estado unidos en colombia la geografía es muy diferente a los 35 mil kilómetros están sacando la mano y la garantía que da la marca no alcanza a cubrir estos daños que son muy significantes para el bolsillo lo digo con conocimiento de causa estoy pasando este problema!!!!!!!!!!

Ford it cost to much VC sucks

[@sgbradley]

Like before a great review. One or two mpg who are you kidding? More like 5-7 mpg lower like a V6 Toyota or Honda, even a 200 HP Subaru gets 30 mpg and a better AWD system plus a excellent resale value not to mention a higher safety equipped car for less $$$.

[@AutoAcademics]

First and foremost, thank you very much for the kind words, Stephen Bradley. We truly appreciate them. Now on to business. We agree with your comments to a point. Thing is, you identified the best points of all of those brands combined, but none of them can do everything that you mentioned better than the Escape, just as the Escape can't do all of them better than the others. That's the tricky part with car research, trying to find the vehicle that has features that are most important to you as a consumer. Hope this helps and thanks again for the kind words.

[@coureurdebois]

for that price there is so much plastic, rattles, and cheap materials while having a very unrefined ride... not good.

[@AutoAcademics]

Yes, there are hard plastics... especially on the rear door panels, but the ride actually ISN'T unrefined. The driving characteristics are some of the Escape's finer points. That and the self parking. And SYNC3 is pretty good now, too!

[@coureurdebois]

the ride is behind its competitors not to mention SYNC3 is too little too late.

[@AutoAcademics]

You can't give up hope so quickly, Justin Bouche. Cars are always changing and evolving. That's the nice thing about this industry and why people like you (and us) enjoy it so much. Keep the faith!

[@coureurdebois]

lolz, i have little faith seeing as fords own Lincoln brand is the best they have to offer in terms of rebadged fords and they are easily one of the worst luxury brands hardly better than many Mazdas.
