The 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid has received ruthless reviews, especially here in Houston, Texas, but it has been re-designed and fine-tuned by the manufacturer so to make this model headed back to the top. Together with the exterior revamp of the 2008 model, Ford has increased its power to provide better handling and a more suave and enjoyable drive. For this reason, Ford Escape has been more admired in terms of sales that it has been the past years. Its 2.5 liter engine is the most visible alteration which has improved its power by 22 horses. This model would even take less than 10 seconds to reach 60mph. You will also notice that sound that is related to its uneven transmission has been gotten rid of.

Hello there, Phillip. I’m guessing that the best answer to your question is that the Ford motor company has upped the ante for the compact sedan market with its 2009 Ford Focus. I think most of the 2009 Focus owners in Houston, Texas are quite fond of the current year model. Although I’m not in the market for a new car right now, I figured that there are more than a couple of things to note in the new Focus.
Upped the ante, what exactly did I mean by that? Well, Ford has the 2.0 liter Duratec engine that’s supposed to give you 35 miles to a gallon. That’s almost the performance of a hybrid. But of course, that’s their standard rating. Actual values could prove to be like 3 to 4 points off, but still good for a sedan. What caught my eye in terms of features, though, is the SYNC system. Oh, my, I am still a techno freak. The SYNC system is supposed to integrate, via Bluetooth, a phone and even your digital music player. I think this feature on a Ford will prove to be very valuable in terms of safety. Nothing distracts a driver more than his or her mobile phone. So just imagine, having it all integrated in your car and voice-activated. You can even fetch a song from your music player through voice. WOW. That’s what I said, too.
Happy Focus-ing, Phillip.
