We’re sure you could think of a thousand different reasons to share with your man on why getting an Escape is pivotal to your existence as a couple. But start with these 10 and see if they don’t land an Escape in your garage by next Monday.

  • Towing package allows us to pull boats, hot tubs, sasquatches, carnival rides, and other assorted creature comforts we find along the roadside.
  • Sporty, all-new look for ’08 Escape matches your own sporty, all-new look for ’08.
  • With 200 hp at your toes, you’ll spend less time reading bumper stickers and more time in the passing lane.
  • Escape’s approach, breakover, and departure capabilities mean you can go ahead and enter that monster truck contest you’ve had your eye on. 
  • Moose everywhere will hear of and envy your available 4WD system.
  • Retuned, fully independent suspension and innovative torque distribution allow you to confidently slalom at your leisure.
  • Hybrid drive mode has über cool technology (probably from a downed UFO): friends will line the block to see the gas engine boosted by electric traction motor.
  • 5.7L/100 km city and 6.7L/100km highway in the Escape Hybrid means you’ll be saving loonies by the bucket. Good thing there’s 66 cubic feet of cargo to hold all that jack.*
  • Available steering-wheel-mounted radio controls and voice-activated SYNC music and phone system make you master and commander of your audio universe. **
  • Handy built-in compass and available nav mean sports-bar televisions are always mere moments from discovery.

* Based on front wheel drive models and Transport Canada approved test methods. Actual fuel consumption may vary depending on driving habits, weather, road conditions and other factors beyond our control.

** Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control. Only use mobile phones (even with voice commands) and other devices not essential to driving when it is safe to do so.

One of the great things about your relationship with your better half is that she is usually quite receptive to your ideas. Particularly when you woo her with, oh I don’t know, flowers and dinner. So now that you’d like to get an Escape, seal the deal with those helpers and this list:

  • Available Intelligent 4WD System keeps us surefooted even when I’m tripping over my tongue.
  • Bring on the heat (or not) with dual-zone automatic temperature controls; hot side stays hot, cool side stays cool.
  • MP3 jack and SIRIUS® Satellite Radio will inspire you to sing along whenever possible.*
  • Optional privacy glass in rear of vehicle lets us get “reacquainted” properly.
  • Hybrid and XLT models have comfy seat fabric made of 100-percent earth-friendly, post-industrial materials for that refreshing green feeling.
  • Getting you flowers will be that much easier with up to 66 cubic feet of cargo space to hold my love for you.
  • Six standard airbags mean I’m not the only thing filled with hot air in the vehicle. **
  • Available heated mirrors and front seats keep everything nice and toasty even on the chilliest nights.
  • Top-of-dash display keeps your eyes on the road while telling you everything except your fortune. We can pick up some Chinese takeout for that.
  • Get directions anywhere, anytime with the available voice-activated nav system… finding your way home from a new romantic getaway has never been easier.

* Includes six-month prepaid subscription and online access. See your Ford of Canada Dealer or contact SIRIUS at 1-888-539-7474 for more information.

** Always wear your safety belt and secure children in the rear seat.
