[Shotimes] (OT) Ford Escape

[Rick Glass]

"Ford dealership nearby with a great service dept"

You're kidding right ???????

If you prefer the Escape then that is your preference, just offering my 
opinion.  I think the Tribute has better styling (headlights, fog lights, 
wheels) I'm not sure about the interior features of the Escape, but the new 
Tribute has side airbags in the seat and I believe overhead.

As George pointed out, the Tribute has a better warranty too......50k vs. 
36k.

Again, just my opinion....but it's going to be hard for anyone to ever sell 
me on another Ford, unless it's a truck or they bring the Falcon over from 
Australia.
