I am about a month away from purchasing a vehicle. I need some insight here. I know it's ironic for someone who's username is Jeep to need help with a car, but I would appreciate some second opinions here.

I'm considering buying a 2010 Ford Escape, as featured below. Check out the pictures, and the video I posted.

Opinions?

I pretty much want a car that will take me from Point A to Point B, but is also nice. In a year or so I'll be off to college, so I'll need it mainly for that. As well as work, and going places. The Escape seems to offer pretty much anything that I could ask for. It's fairly basic, but also very nice overall.

The Ford Escape is a cheap, plasticky and overall stuff vehicle. Get something else.

does fuel consumption come into it?

because i can think of hundreds of other cars better than the ford escape

Yes / No. Fuel isn't really a problem with the Escape. It's known for pretty good fuel economy. I wouldn't be too concerned with that.
