Why You Should Buy a Used Ford Escape from Stevens 112 Ford

Shopping for a midsize crossover SUV offers you a variety of quality options. At Stevens 112 Ford, we believe the Ford Escape offers some of the best features and performance options in a used SUV. Our staff in Medford will be happy to help you find the used Ford Escape that meets your particular lifestyle demands.

Performance Options

The performance options in a Ford Escape depend upon the year and trim model you choose. Popular Ford Escape models include a 1.5-liter three-cylinder or a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Three-cylinder engines can offer 190 lb. per ft. of torque and 181 horsepower, while the four-cylinder engines offer 280 lb. per ft. of torque and 250 horsepower.

Most models of the used Ford Escape offer a standard front-wheel drive. If you are planning on doing off-roading near Shirley or want to be able to handle severe weather with better traction, Ford Escape offers optional all-wheel drive. Many of the used Ford Escape vehicles in our inventory feature all-wheel drive.

Customers from Patchogue to Brookhaven are also concerned with the fuel economy of buying a used Ford Escape. While some SUVs can go through gas and cause your fuel costs to increase, the Ford Escape can offer up to 34 mpg on the highway in a three-cylinder model. If you choose the four-cylinder used Ford Escape, you can expect up to 31 mpg. The Ford Escape can offer excellent fuel economy even if you are planning to drive primarily in the city. Three-cylinder models can achieve 28 mpg in the city, while four-cylinder models can reach 22 MPG.

If fuel economy matters to you, there are certain features you can choose to boost the fuel efficiency of your vehicle. Front-wheel drive vehicles will offer greater fuel economy than all-wheel drive. Likewise, certain trim models are enhanced for off-road or towing near Centereach, and these qualities will decrease the mpg the vehicle offers.

Value of Buying a Used Ford Escape

When you want a quality crossover SUV at an affordable price, buying a used vehicle can be the way to achieve the vehicle of your dreams. Not only will you pay less for the vehicle upfront, but you will also be paying less for insurance premiums. Since newer vehicles cost more to replace in a severe accident, you are charged higher premiums for a newer vehicle than a pre-owned one.
