Ford Escape rumor
 

Ford anouced yesterday that the 5.4L 3v Triton V-8 will go in to the Ford Escape. Reporters are saying that this will be the end of jeep because of the V8 option.








































Ha ha ha ha ha! Thats a good one! LOL.
I have a question for you all . My friend says that ford escapes are built on car frames. True? If so, it doesnt surprise me.

Too bad Ford marketed the escape for teen girls :D No one wants a GIRLIE vehicle!

Oh noes! A v8! Woooooooo :shudders:

I think it meant Explorer. The 5.4L wouldn't fit into the Escape.

Hasn't the Explorer always offered the V8 and still no one buys it?

RE: Ford Escape rumor
 

i was jokeing about the V8, but are they really built on car frames?

RE: Ford Escape rumor
 

Same frame as the five hundred.

[sm=icon_rofl.gif] oh man, that is funny!

The Escape has it's own frame. It's the same as the Mazda tribute. They have shoved a 302 5.0L in prototype Escapes as well as Focuses. It doesn't not have the same frame as the Ford 500. The Explorer and Mountaineer have the 4.6L V-8 in it as an option and the standard V-6 4.0L Standard. The 5.4L V-8 Triton is reserved for the heavier vehicles that require the power to tow. The escape was technically produced for teens. That's why in the comercials always have a dude driving.
