What is the Ford Escape's towing capacity?

Does the Ford Escape offer a good towing capacity? I really like the Escape, but I need a car that can haul a lot of weight so that I can use it for both work and personal reasons.

The
Ford Escape
has a towing capacity of 1,500 to 3,500 pounds, depending on which engine options you choose and the type of cargo you’ll be hauling.
If you’re looking for a vehicle with a high towing capacity, you’ll probably want to opt for a newer model. You’ll also need to talk to your dealer about the towing equipment that you’ll be using, as some types of towing are harder on your car than others.
Whether you settle on the Ford Escape or another car, you’ll need insurance for your new vehicle, too. Check out the
