What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Ford Escape
| Price of the Ford Escape: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic AWD |
Lowest |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic AWD |
My price paid was much smaller than Toyota and Honda similar models I researched. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The price was within budget |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD |
Compared to Honda, Toyota and GM, much more "bang for the buck"! |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
lower than the mazda |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Reasonable price for 1 year old lease return |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD |
Not much. Pricey for what you get. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD |
Part of the deal was getting top dollar on my trade in. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
At my purchase price of $15800 I think my Escape is an unmatched value. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 127-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual AWD |
Bought vehicle with low interest. And price of 19,600 was very reasonable. Especially by SUV standards |
| Price of the Ford Escape: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Hybrid was quite a premium over the V6. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
It is not economical when comparing standard engine vs. hybrid engine. You have to do it because you want a hybrid for the environment. However, it is 10K cheeper than Toyota Highlander Hybrid, but it is a lighter car too. Tow capacity is 1000 vs 3000. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD |
As a hybrid, expect to pay a premium price. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Honda CR-V
| Price of the Honda CR-V: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Less than some of the others. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
In comparing all the other reasons for purchasing a vehicle the CR-V was the better price. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
When I bought it, the price was competitive with other small/midsize SUVs |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
I bought it used so the price fit my current budget |
| Price of the Honda CR-V: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Cost was a bit more than the Jeep, but for a less capable snow vehicle. Honda has a good reputation and resale value, but with the lifetime Jeep warranty the Honda was not a contender |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Much more expensive than a Rogue with similar features. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
high price = high monthly payments |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
The crv has a high sticker price compared to other brands of like vehicle. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
no incentives, dealer wanted close to list price. no way i ever pay list, never. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Paying in built-in premium for the Honda brand. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Over 2k more than Grand Vitara which seemed much less cramped in the interior and better styled |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 156-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Its too much. The interior is some what plain. Not a lot of helpful features like a Message center. |
