Don't forget the gas mixture for winter is different. Everyone's winter mileage drops.

 

Please bare with me on this one, and no I'm not trying to start anything...

Looking at this photo; to me if looks like something Toyota is putting on their 2010 Prius as an option (http://www.toyota.com/vehicles/minisite/prius/ .) They state the solar panels on their roof will run the AC to keep the interior cool during the summer months. I think maybe this person may have done the same thing. Though I will admit, I did not look at the website you provided.


Thanks,

I thought so too at first, but when I blew up the picture, that is not a V6 emblem, it looks like some kind of hybrid emblem, similar to what is on the sides of my 2008 FEH. At least, it doesn't look like "V6" to me.

Do the early year FEH have a different symbol on the back? The new ones have "Hybrid" in text back there...

 

This photo is not a Escape. look on the other side of the back end.

 

As near as I can tell when I blow up the pix, the right side says "Escape", although there is some other text below that word, perhaps a dealer logo...

 

Wow, my bad. It look so much diffrent from the angle then my Ecsape does. I Wish we could get more info on this if it is a Escape Hybrid with solar.

 

I can fix this all... if you look at the "suv" on the driver side, of the "suv" in question. You'll see that the refection of the white "suv" has no back air duct for the HV batt.

I think....

 

This photo was in this site a year ago (2008) and you are not looking at a hybrid but an Escape with a V6 engine.

 

Actually, the reflection on the window of the SUV next to the "mystery" Escape does not go far enough back to see any cutout. However, the reflection on the PAINT of the SUV seems to show the cutout.

What I can't figure out is why the heck would they put a solar charger on a conventional escape?

 

I'm pretty sure this is the emblem we're seeing on the right side of the rear hatch:
