If it were a crossover it wouldn't be a truck :yes: . It's an SUV, so therefore it's a truck :thumb: . Just not a plumbing truck! :doh:

Yea, I get complaints from the full size truck people too about calling it a truck. I said, "Sorry, you're right it's not a truck. It gets better gas mileage, handles better and is faster than a truck." (Mostly true anyways lol) But damnit, Ford sure made it look like a truck! I do try to call it a crossover, to keep the local ******** happy.

I love my " Little Tonka Truck ".

But on my registration papers, the authorities classify it as a station wagon.

i thought about using my black "truck" plates for my escape when i got it, but i couldnt resist using the plates that i have had since i got my first car.

We love our Escape, and I call it "the truck" all the time. Mainly because my daily driver is a 2002 Chevy Cavalier and it doesn't qualify. Unlike some people, I actually use ours as a utility vehicle...I have hauled sod in it among other things because for as much money as we paid for it...I'm using it to haul things!

We paid plenty, but it's a Utility vehicle, and my wife uses it as one too! It isn't much for getting groceries, but it's been to the Nursery for garden supplies, the lumberyard for my m-i-l needing some planks, my son borrowed it to haul some dirt in! That last one tripped my trigger. We do have a pickup! And he does have a PT Cruiser beater that he could have used! Sheesh! The humanity!

When I hauled dirt and sod in mine, I just put a tarp over the cargo area and I hauled everything down the hill to the common dumping area next to my property. Only a few pieces of dirt ended up on the carpet and my trusty shop vac took care of it! Still looks new except for all the dog hair!

 

[jonas1022]

That would be great, except for the amount of dirt he got. He could have used his own car!

 

[RobtRoma]

I've used mine to haul all sorts of building materials including lumber, bricks, landscaping blocks and patio blocks. I even loaded a large Futon back there at one point. It didn't quite fit... thank goodness for bungee cords

It's been a very flexable vehicle...

 

[ross]
