Hey Sara,
Depending on what size hitch you have on your Ford Escape there are a few options. If you do not have a hitch on your vehicle I recommend something like # e89YR, etrailer Class 3 Trailer hitch, A great 2" receiver option for you.
I recommend the # HLY46RR, Hollywood Racks Crosstrack Bike Rack. With your bikes being around 50lbs each this rack is great for you with a 66lbs per bike capacity. Whether your vehicle has a 2" receiver or 1 1/4" you can use this bike rack with both sizes. With an included loading ramp and a tilt away feature it is going to make loading your bikes and being able to access the rear of the vehicle much easier.
Is there a price range you are looking to stay in? I can definitely look and find some more options for you if you are wanting something more cost friendly.
