Early last year we had thought about a Mach-E, it was $56k. We also looked at a Ford Escape Hybrid, it was $32k after rebate. The gas prices at that time had the cost of going 250 miles at roughly $5 more than the Mach-E, so with that it made the Escape more sensible. Next we had to think about my wife driving out to East Stroudsburg to see her sister. She would have to stop along the way and charge for about a half hour, then once she got there she would have to have the car charge overnight somewhere for her trip home plus once again stopping along the way for a half hour. Finally we found out that during the winter months while the car was sitting outside at her work she would lose up to 15% of its charge. With the Escape we are extremely help with winter mpg average of 40 mpg and summer mpg of 44.
