I have two ford escapes. A 2001 Model with a V6 and 4wd. I Avg 20mpg in city and hightway driving and has 142k miles on it. Also have 09 Model 4cyl engine in it and avg 26mpg in mix driving. Both vehicles are easy and fun to drive. I mostly drive the 09 Model because it takes me one hour to get to work. Plus it gets 29mpg highway.
I dont get it when people complain of lower power and not good gas mileage. If you want great gas mileage, get a 1.3 liter car. If you want high power, get a mustang. You cannot have both in one car. Thats physics.
theres a lot of things i could complain about for this car but most people dont look for those things so the worst would have to be how underpowerd the car is even with overdrive off (i have the bigger v6 too), the lack of gears in the transmission, and the gas milage is not so good, i paied about 35 thousand for it, when in that price range i could of had a well trimed subaru impreza wrx with 265 horse power vs 150... and just as good in snow, look at your options people!
you have to be a "light foot" on it. I own the same thing. Best gas millage ive got was 23.8. thats was offroading and highway. iam not a led foot. but mix driving normally id get 18mpg a week. i test my gas millage every week. I also have the Bf good rich all terrian 32x10" all terrian tires and one inch lift. it helps out alot on offroad. :)
I have an '08 Supercharged Bullitt Mustang; I got an '05 Escape V6 as my daily driver. While not as peppy as the 460 horseys my stang has... I do appreciate the "frugal" gas consumption of the Escape. On trips I get about 28 mpg.

zooyork is an idiot... you have a 4 cyl, v6 is 200hp not 150 and if you paid 35 grand, you're an even bigger idiot.
