Still Waiting On an Escape


I placed an order for a Ford Escape PHEV back in October. Five months later and I am no closer to getting into the driver's seat. Ford sent me an email today to confirm that the wait continues.

Over the past few months, I have been watching for videos on this model. Unfortunately they are top trim models and not what I am purchasing. I ordered the base as I didn't think that the $4.5k price increase was worth the features that I cared about. Namely the full digital instrument cluster and the premium speakers. The rest of it--like the front end light bar or auto park system I didn't care whether I had them or not. What I wanted to see was what the base instrument cluster and the cloth seating was like.

Although I would like it now, I do need to save money for a HVAC replacement. As long as my little Fiesta holds up, I can wait on this.

Pics when it comes in!! Excited for you. It will be a long while till I get a new car. I just paid off my Prius. It felt good. So I will drive it till it can't drive anymore.
