We have been looking for the past year. We have driven nearly every vehicle under $35K and no more than 2 years old.
As we went along she narrowed it down to the following requirements.
Turbo (while not a must it had to be sporty and fun)
AWD
Proximity Key
Heated Seats
Decent gas mileage

2013 Ford Escape Titanium AWD with the 2.0L Ecoboost

We have put about 500 miles on it and are loving it. The interior is comfortable, well laid out, cabin is extremely quiet, the upgraded Sony Stereo System sounds great, the thing is quick, and handles very very well. Drives like a car, though it's nice that you are up a little higher. The ride is very good considering it has 19" wheels. The liftgate opening by passing your foot under the bumper is awesome when your hands are full.

For just over 30K out the door, with the bumper to bumper warranty extended to 6 years 60K miles, this vehicle can't be beat.

That's sharp as hell. Those Ecoboost motors are really impressive, I'd like to pick up a used Supercrew F150 Ecoboost in the next couple years.

I'm digging the color! Sterling Gray is on the short list if/when I order a '14 5.0. But Abrams/Stryker sales need to go back up so I can keep mah jerb lol.

Looks good. That is one of the best color out on the market. Powder coat those wheels black and it would look very clean.

Direct injected engines are the sh!t right now! Very responsive engines! :bigthumb

We have been looking for the past year. We have driven nearly every vehicle under $35K ....I just drove nearly everything under $25k as well. Ended up with a 2012 Mustang. I was blown away how far the quality has gone up on all vehicles within the last few years. The emergence of the Direct Injected engines is what impressed me the most.

Been contemplating the plastidip route.

Anyone good with photoshop that could make the wheels a matte black?
