Do i need to buy tbe flash link for a 2018 ford escape?

Yes you will need the flash programmer. The EVO basically comes empty with no program. Once you get the programmer hooked up you will use the software to get the appropriate program for you Focus and install it. Hope this helps.

if it does not come pre-programmed, do i need to buy the separate flash-link or is it included?

No you will need to buy the flash link.. its generic in programming and will need to be updated as well as having your preferred option turned on or off. You will also need it install any updates

What kind of range does this have?

This is not a stand alone its a stand alone add on Remote so you would have to buy more parts to make it work, and it did not work on my 2009 Lincoln navigator.

Will this have everything included to install on a 2011 ford escape? no additional bypass module? totally plug and play?

I have a 2012 and the unit does not program out of the box. Says I need to flash using their $40 add on module. I think I am going to return it and get a true plug and play setup.
