Indians Lynn, just to add support to your post, we have a 2014
Escape with the same 2.0 Ecoboost and tow package and pull a
Scamp 16 that is loaded with all the extras. Our experience is exactly like yours. Plenty of power for acceleration, passing and just cruising down the highway. Almost forget the
Scamp is there. Mileage is like yours except when I get to cruising along at 65 or a little more, then it drops a bit. I try to stay at 55-60, and that is where I get the best mileage. I would definetly recommend the
Escape as a TV. It actually tows better than the 2010 Ford Edge with the 3.5 V-6 that I had before the Escape.
