Ahh you got a stickshift... nice!
Nik - the V6 is available in FWD and AWD configs. I drove an AWD V6 Fusion last year and it's probably one of the only cars I would have taken to replace the RX-8. If I have one regret about the Escape, it's that I could have bought a nice AWD V6 Limited/SEL/whatever loaded Fusion that was on the lot at the time.
I decided that I wanted ground clearance over a trunk and more room for Tank, so I got the Escape.
Then again, the ice I crawled over today to reach an unplowed parking area at the waterfront so I could take pictures... the Fusion never would have cleared that :P
