Ford Escape or Chevrolet Equinox

Or suggest other of similar type.
Ok well base your answers on reliability and knowledge of these used vehicles.

My friend's Equinox is incredibly roomy inside. People in the back seat have so much room you would think its a full size SUV. The stock basic sound system is good although some of the plastics of the interior are a little cheap. Also his rotors became warped but otherwise the power steering is so nice that you could drive with just your pinky. Brakes are good apart form the warped rotors. It comes standard with a V6 so it has ample power too.

The ford Escape is virtually the same car as the Mazda Tribute and I remember the interior being a little crowded to be honest and with nothing too great sticking out.

Both are equally good vehicles.

The better vehicle of the two will depend more on how the previous owner(s) used and maintained the vehicle.

You will be the person making the payments on this vehicle
You will be the person driving this vehicle
You will be the person maintaining this vehicle
You are the only person who needs to like this vehicle

Don't be so lazy. Find some of these vehicles for sale in your local area. Look them over. Take them for a test drive. See what YOU like or dislike about either vehicle.

Don't let strangers on the Internet select your vehicle for you. Pick the one that YOU like best.
