What Owners are Saying About the 1995 Ford Escort

"1995 Ford Escort LX Wagon"

"I love this car's gas mileage. I get 30mpg in town and 38mpg on the highway! The car has no luxuries and you know you're driving a car not sitting in an airconditioned luxury hotel suite as if you were driving a Lexus."

"Best Car Ever!"

"Owned this car for 16 years. Bought it for $3,000. I'm 73 and have owned many expensive and fancy sport cars in my life! This car is very reliable! It gets 40mpg hwy and 32mpg through the North Georgia Mountains! I've only replaced normal things like timing belts, struts, radiator, hoses, brakes, etc. I take real good care of it. Oil and filter is changed every 4,000 miles and have always added Marvel Mystery Oil to the gas! I've done this for decades with all my cars and have gotten at least 300,000 miles doing this and probably gotten another 300,000 miles! This car still looks brand new! My annual tax is a whooping $8.50! I'd rather spend my money elsewhere!"

"Too bad they don't make them anymore! Great car!"

"This car has served me well since 2000 when I bought it. I wish I could find another small station wagon like it!"
