    Dealer Notes

    Drive this home today! The 1997 Ford Escort!

    It just arrived on our lot, and surely won't be here long! This 4 door, 5 passenger sedan still has fewer than 60,000 miles! Ford prioritized practicality, efficiency, and style by including: variably intermittent wipers, front bucket seats, and a split folding rear seat. Smooth gearshifts are achieved thanks to the efficient 4 cylinder engine, providing a spirited, yet composed ride and drive.

    We have a skilled and knowledgeable sales staff with many years of experience satisfying our customers needs. We'd be happy to answer any questions that you may have. Stop in and take a test drive!

      I bought my 99 Escort in 2002, when it had 115,000 miles (!) on it. It must have been a fleet car. I love this car, it has been so reliable for the past nearly 10 years. The only reason I am planning to replace it is because I live in Minnesota and it is rusting in some bad places. This car is nothing fancy, which made it great for trips to the lumber yard, the mulch pile, and so forth.
    • Great car

      I love my 1997 Ford Escort LX sedan. Runs great. I drive this car everyday. Handles awesome. I love the car. It drives great in the rain & snow. I have 161,375 miles on it. I still own the car.One of the best cars, I've ever owned. I have had the Escort since 2009. In 2022 the car will be 25 years old.
    • If ever made again, I'd be first to buy it.

      This review is for 2001 and 2002 Ford Escort SE NOT the ZX2 sports car. I got a deal because I paid $8,000 cash with no financing. In 2003, I totaled my 2001 SE when a driver going wrong direction on interstate hit me head on. I walked away. I received enough for car to buy a 2002 SE with all cash and no financing. [Tip--never finance.]. I put 215,000 miles on the 2002 car. Yes, you read that right--215,000 miles. Repairs were one gear shift thing (under $40), regular oil/spark plugs type maintenance, high mileage tires, brake lights (under $5), turn signal bulb (under $5), timing belt and related belts (under $300 from retired mechanic versus thrown engine price at regular dealer--tip: this happened at 200,000 miles and was a design flaw that was corrected in 2003 model). Regardless of what others say. I put 215,000 miles in 10 years and average gas mileage before corn was 38 and now is 33 in summer and 35 rest of year. I was planning to keep it forever, but an 18 wheeler totaled it. I walked away. Car saved my life twice. Ford discontinued car in 2003 to make 25 mpg fuel efficient vehicles. Go figure.
