I wish it was towable also, so I started looking at the Escape hybrid, thinking that it could tow 3500 lbs as well as towable 4 wheels down but only the ICE escape can tow that much. I was holding out for the plug-in but where we live at $.22/KWH, gas would have to be $3.40 just to break even, so the hybrid is a better deal. Let us know how it is working out for you. I also read about people having trouble with a drained battery so I think a separate charge line is a good idea.Gjac wrote:
Nice job Mike, which model Escape did you get the gas version or the hybrid. I was looking at the hybrid and plug in hybrid which are towable also.
Hey Gary how you been?
I ended up with a 2020 Titanium Hybrid. I must admit I kinda miss my Wrangler but the technology and fuel mileage is much better. I really like my sons 2021 Rav4 Hybrid if it were towable I would have got one.
