Today I'm bored and decide to swing by the local Ford dealership since I know they're closed and I won't get hassled. Big mistake. I walk around the lot and got to see my first 2013 Escape. Color me impressed. It was a nice looking vehicle. I was a little surprised that the engine is sourced from the UK but I suppose that translates to a UK/Ford made engine (it was the 1.6EB). I was a little shocked at the sticker price of 28K.

Now here's where I made the mistake. After walking around the lot I'm like let's go take a peeky at the showroom floor (through the windows of course since they are closed). Well, I finally got to see a 2013 GT500. It was a slow on slow color of black/black. :giggle: It did look sweet though. Love the new wheels and the car looks menacing with no radiator grill.

Then I saw it. A 2012 BOSS in the fastest color of course, blue. :shades: They had a tag hanging from the rear view mirror and I could see that it was a one owner car with a little over 3,000 miles on it (and it even said that the car had been bought from that dealership). Here's where I about did something illegal. The price was 29K!!! At first I was like :frolic: and then I was like :doh2:. That seems like a pretty good deal for 1 year old BOSS with just over 3K on the ticker. I'm sure the 2013s are hurting the resale values of the 12s but that still seemed pretty good. And no, I couldn't get a picture because of the reflection on the glass.

Matt ...where's part-2 ...with the punch line :shades:

:giggle:

...re the Escape ...Ford UK is the global center of competence for the 1.6L EB engine. The 2.0L EB (like the Focus ST gets) is also available in the all Escapes (except the base S) and is standard in the Escape Titanium.

I sure do like the Escape :yes:
