  1. I have a t-2000 it has a Rms of 2000, hooked up to a jbl gto2401 watt amp it starts to get stinky real fast. The sub was getting around 1800the watts. The first one had a mechanical noise and then the coil started to rub. I was told it was my box so I swapped the box and it did the same thing. When I sent it back it had a little saw dust on the spider from the 2ed test box and I was told that was the reason for the coil rub and noise and I had to pay $175for a recone. He even put pics on his facebook talking Shit.

    The funny thing is the first box is a few years old and painted so there was no dust or anything. I contacted psi about a recone and with all the upgrades he can do he said the Rms will be around 1800 since the gap is so small u can't get much coil in there.

    Long story short the subs sound good but are over rated and the customer service sucks

  2. U have a newer one most of the problems come on the early escapes. Check out escape-city alot of ppl have problems with the 1srt generation escapes.

    It was a great car till I hit 100k and its 90%in hwy miles 100+ miles a day to and from work and a few trips from md to Ga to see my mom.

    Like I said with a family with more then 3the ppl its way to small. Plus ur car sounds like its in great shape so u should be able to trade for something alot better then a 3000little escape

    Well bro i have some good things to say as i own an 07 escape. I got 110000+ miles on it and it still runs great. Oil changes at every 3000 miles for the first 20000 miles and every 5000 miles after that and now back to every 3000 mile now im over 100000. Did the trans fluid and coolant also at correct intervals, and spark plugs and everything. Its a great small suv that could be dependable. All negatives here could be from some who just dont like ford or dont really have one (but "nows someone who does"). I would say the cargo is small depending on what audio you are looking at but still big enough for my 7.5cu box for 2 15's and a battery. It has a good compartment under the cargo area that i put both my 11zx1000.1 amps. I have the 4 cylinder and i dont like where the alternator is mounted, its hard work to change that out. This suv has also been from texas to flordia and back. I was stationed in England and it endured some harsh winters there also. I have nothing but good things about the escape and plan on buying the 2012 come january, (if i dont decided on the 2012 durango). Anything else plaese ask me.

  3. I have an 04 5 speed, it has 120k on it, in the past 4 months I spent around 3000 on it with repairs and u have to hold it in 3edthe gear or it will pop out. It drives nice but it won't get out of its own way lol. Even leaving from a light I have to floor it.

    I wouldn't do the trade I have a 2 month old and a 5 year old and we are thinking about getting a charger for more room. Oh and im sure u can get alot more for ur car my trade in is like 2800
