My wife & I finally after 20 years for her, and 17 years for me, finally got new rides. His & hers 2022 Ford Escape SEL Hybrid AWD. Ordered both on December 3, and I got mine on January 11, and the wife got hers on January 24. The weather was in the upper 50s, and I just couldn't help myself. :) Had to give 'em the once over. Meguiar's M20 Polymer Sealant for the paint, Griot's Garage Best of Show Spray Wax for all the plastic trim. Man, am I whipped. Two cars in one afternoon. Mine is Red, Wife's is dark blue.

Thanks! My wife called dibs on the dark blue - Ford calls it Stone Blue, but Lincoln has had the color for several years as Flight Blue. So I took the red (Rapid Red at Ford, Red Carpet at Lincoln). They're both tinted clear coats, and the M20 just made them "pop".

Us, too!. Right now, we're loving all the bells and whistles, but loving the gas mileage most - double what we were getting, and as roomy as my old car and roomier than my wife's old ride.

What did you have before?
Also, FoMoCo always has great colors. In addition to your vehicles I also like Star White and Atlas Blue.
 
My wife had a silver 2002 Escape, with 165K miles.. I had a 2005 Mercury Montego with about 207K miles. Yes, this Escapes interior room is within fractions of any inch of my Montego. Crazy.

Atlas Blue was my second choice to the Rapid Red.
 
That’s impressive! I wouldn’t have thought interior space was that close.

Also, rapid red is even better in person. Pictures don’t do it justice.

OFF TOPIC. That is one sizeable driveway you have!

Three cars wide, two deep to the side walk, plus side walk and apron. It's a pain to clear the snow. This subdivision was finished in 1998, and our driveway is about average. Next door is a corner lot with a three cars garage and a VERY wide driveway. A couple others are even bigger. Nice, but not in winter. And at my age (nearly 63), an hour to clear all the snow, in heavy snow falls, is not fun.
 
You're 100%. Looks way better in person, in the sun. Just went to Meijer to grab some groceries, and coming back to the car, I noticed how much better it looks on a sunny day.
 
Congratulations on the new rides! Very nice work!
 
We have the blue color on our explorer limited. Looks great when it's cleaned up and has a really nice metal flake. My truck is the "lightning blue". I currently have an F-350 on order in antimatter blue. Before that I had a blue jean metallic. Love ford's blue colors.
 
Congrats and great color choices! 17+ years! You guus deserve them.
