Cold fusion anyone?

I owned the first iteration of the Edge with the v6 and the 2015 escape. 2.0 liter eco boost. The escape pulls my 19 ft center consul Eastern so much more comfortably then the edge ever did even thought they had the same tow rating. The edge was the superior highway travel cruiser but we rarely needed that function. On trips to our summer house in Maine the escape also delivered the fuel economy. If the interior of the new escape is indeed improved what role does the Edge occupy that can’t be filled with the escape or explorer?

Agreed, I believe companies are going to have start thinking about water resources in the era of climate change when siting a new facility. On the plus side you install a lot of solar panels on the roof in the hot Arizona sun.

And who doesn’t know about the Maverick? What is unexpected about that?

It will be interesting when he gets his hands on the new bronco. If Ford put as much thought into it as he they did into the Mach E, it will be a rock solid performer. kudos to the Mach E engineering team, the engineering is in impressive.

No more ridiculous then the map update Ford keeps trying to sell me for the Escape. I just use google maps. Makes we wonder how many people actually buy the map update for the 250 bucks.

I recently started a new position as head of a Tech Services Dept. for pharmaceutical consulting firm. I was drawn to the position with the knowledge that I could work from where ever I had access to a strong ISP. This includes my home in Boston, my summer house in Maine or a short term rental in the location of my choice. Flexibility in my work location was a key motivator in my decision to accept the position.

They built 21 C pickups in Feb.

They built twice as many bronco sports as Escapes, that tells you something. I have actually seen more Bronco Sports on the road then New Escapes in my Boston neighborhood

The gas in the tank should allow operation for several days before filling, if what I read about real world application in Texas is accurate.

But you couldn’t recharge your Tesla if the grid I’d down, just sayin

You think this just might push demand for more hybrid F150s. The best free advertising money can buy is a storm making you new product indispensable in a crisis.(sarcasm) Hopefully Ford can capitalize on this. Does any other truck manufacturer offer such a useful option.

What I don’t understand is how a Grid the handles all that AC in the summer can’t handles the electric heat in Winter. I guess they just don’t insulate to keep the cold in during the summer

19 foot center counsel with OB weighs more than that. The 2015 Escape hauls it better than our old Edge with the V6 and with less gas used in the bargain.

After watching this review I felt that this would an ideal vehicle to rent on Kauai. Some of the roads to the more remote beaches and trail heads are little rough for a typical soft roader. Last couple of times we rented pick ups, The rubberized area in the back ideal for cleaning out the beach sand. I would replace our current escape with this but the towing capacity isn’t there. I guess I will wait until the two door bronco becomes readily available.
