2009 Ford Escape
|
| The Ford Escape returns to the Vincentric winner’s circle for the 3rd time with a balance of form and function that brings Vincentric’s Best Value in America to compact SUV buyers. Although the Jeep Patriot earned an Excellent Value rating and a second place finish, the Escape had strengths across all eight ownership costs that proved too strong for the competition. |
