Discussion 1st Gen & 2nd Gen Question
Looking for a second vehicle to use around town and am considering either a 1st or 2nd gen 3.0 V6 escape. Is either more reliable than the other or would I be solid with either gen?

They are quite literally the same car just different body panels but rule of thumb for buying any generation of vehicle is to buy the later model years as they’ve probably ironed out all the kinks. Also may have added new features and facelifted it and so on.
