I have driven one and liked it. The price is great and they are as nice inside as out. They look like a big fiesta and I like that.

That pic doesn't really look right, it might have been a photoshop based on spy pictures.

These are official pictures from Ford.

As much as I like Fords, I would rather spend $18,500 on a new Kia Sportage and put $6,500 in my pocket.

They have as many options if not more, and to me it looks like the nicer of the 2.

Funny thing about that comment....
Henry Ford was openly anti Semitic...he later apologized during World War II when he was shown footage from the Holocaust, but during World War I he published many antisemitic texts such as the book The International Jew. Ford is also the only American mentioned in Mein Kampf, written by Hitler.

Not hating on you, just hoping you'll educate yourself before making comments like that.

I'm on the fence on this one. I love the Focus 5 door so much, it's hard for me to like this when it really just looks like a bloated Focus. It's selling like crazy though, apparently.

"my struggle" here has nothing to do with lack of knowledge.. "my struggle" has to do with kia.. we have books in the north aswell.. we didnt burn them all.

They're great little trucks no doubt. We've wanted one for a few months but got so tired of waiting for them to come out since the damage at the plant that we ended up buying an Edge with the 2.0L Ecoboost instead.

I sat in a new Escape at the dealer (didn't drive it though) and I thought it was fantastic. If I had a wife and a need to haul little crumb-crunchers around, I'd consider one.

I know Kia has made great strides and their cars are supposed to be much better now but every time I see one I still think CHEAP CRAP!
