The 2011 Ford Escape is a compact crossover SUV with an attractive design, oodles of high-tech goodies, lively engines and top-notch crash safety ratings. In addition to its popular looks and overall capable driving demeanor, Ford's exceptional hands-free Sync system (operates your cell phone, iPod/MP3 player and the optional navigation system via voice controls) is also available in the Escape.
