                    [Title] => Ford’s low-key SUV
                    [Summary] => I must admit, it doesn’t elicit envious stares when you drive down the boulevard. You hear no gasps of ahhhh and wow either when it whisks speedily by. But for the likes of me, who deliberately want low-profile transport, without sacrificing luxury and even more luxury, the 3.0 liter V6 4WD Escape is the one vehicle that stands out.

You’re cruising along the freeway. You squeeze on that accelerator pedal, trying to dig deep into your vehicle’s throttle. Your car wheezes and pants, and short of actually stalling, its engine heaves a loud sigh of desperation as if to say, "Sorry, that’s all I’ve got". Then the bastard who’s been trying to squeeze in on your lane from the highway shoulder finally breezes past you while sporting a ridiculous smirk — the kind which you wouldn’t mind plastering on the pavement, if only you could.

I get questioned at the car wash and at the gas station. From an inquisitive "Is that the new Ford Escape?" or "How much is it?" to "Which dealer did you get it from?" or even a sarcastic "How come you got one this early while I’m still in the waiting list?" These are some of the questions you’ll get from interested onlookers and buyers who plunked down a deposit and are eagerly awaiting delivery of the newest mini-SUV in the market.

Or so a snooty beret-wearing, wine-inebriated critic is wont to say.
