This is a beautiful one owner non smoker's Ford Escape bought new on the 26th of September 2003. What is obvious is that it has had excellent maintenance. The tires are like new. The brakes have all been replaced recently. The engine and transmission perform flawlessly. The automatic 4x4. (which can be turned on or off ) is smooth . All options including air conditioning work well. The spare tire and tools have never been used. A carpet mat was made to cover the rear cargo area so the original carpet has never been exposed. In short. this Escape needs nothing. There are very few of these in this price range. in this condition and low mileage. The paint and interior are flawless. There is no rust anywhere including the undercarriage. You will not spend anything on this vehicle. My wife and I drive every car we buy so we will know if anything needs to be done. It's truly a pleasure to drive. This is a solid vehicle that will not disappoint you. By the way.
