Ford Escape 2002 car mileage
I am interested in buying a 2002 Ford Escape 4x4
for $2500, but it has about 195k miles on it.
Wondering if it is worth the risk and how long it will
last. Need it to commute to college for the next
two years.

Can you afford to lose the $2,500 if the car dies tomorrow? If not then don't buy it. It could run quite a while or die today. Unless you only drive a mile or two each day find a lower mile car. How far away is your school?
We have a 2014 and are starting to have problems with wheel locking up and ignition locked as well so key won’t turn to start second time this has happened now out of no where it was used and has about 100k miles on it so buy at your own risk
NOPE after 160000 problem after problem
My 02 escape 2.0 liter manual transmission has been so good to me, bought it for 2700 3 yrs ago drove it from california to washington and drive it daily, I think it had close to 150,000 miles on it when I got it anyway about a yr ago it would suddenly stall coming around corners didn't matter the speed well long story short I cleaned the mass air flow sensor and it ran like a champ then after awhile didn't run so good found out it had a bad valve mechanic wanted a 1000 to fix it so I decided to just drive it to the ground, so this thing is a beast!! It's only been running on 3 cylinders for a yr now never has left me stranded or broke down, I wind the gears pretty hard but it likes it that way..it's got 217,000 miles on it and still runs today, great car!!!!!
