you already got my points. besides, Equinox in in higher class (size only, it is from the same production line of Suzuki XL-7) compare to escape.
Ford Escape == Mazda Tribute
GM Equinox == Suzuki XL-7
GM is not honest as it used to have Tracker (Suzuki Grant vitara), which is in the same class as Escape, however, they want to A more money so they make faked XL-7 now.
