" Sorry I didn't see your post sooner. She could have gone for a Ford Escape Hybrid, which is rated at 34 MPG in the city. That is decent for an SUV, and the driver and passengers sit high up, which would be an advantage when cruising to view real estate. Replies to this message: hihostevo (Apr 29, 2008 4:28 pm)

any one out there who has small children- needing room for 3 in the back- one in a regular car seat, one in a booster and one not needing either?
