Dude, that is great. I don't own a car but recently I've been renting Ford SUVs from Hertz to help me move to my new townhome. I am pleasantly surprised with the Ford Escape, which has a decent amount of pep and cargo space for such a small truck.
I've also rented the Expedition and while it's a bit large for my tastes I was impressed with the performance. [I live in Center City, Philadelphia so larger SUVs are a handicap when you're trying to find parking spots.] |

My inlaws just traded in one a couple of weeks ago. It was 3 years old and had 23000 miles on it. I wished I could have afforded to buy it.

I hope the tranny doesn't give out on you.
Other then that, I hear they're great SUV's for the price. |

I had to rent one when my regular ride went into the shop for paint.
 I like it.   But I've already had to change a tire.... the jack stowage suxxors. |

I owned a '97 Eddie Bauer since new and the vehicle never gave me one hassle. I didn't even want a new one to tell you the truth. When I first got out of school I really felt that I "needed" a vehicle that I could show off. It's funny what 8 years and 4 kids can do to your "needs". I would have been fine driving my truck until it didn't start.
As for the wife..... I really feel she's the one who deserved it. She has an Excursion and that thing is a pain in the arse to drive. thanks for the nice comments guy!! thanks, Ron |

She got it for you, but are you the one who is actually going to pay for it?

Quoted:

But. on the other hand....she raises 4 kids, monitors 3 offices and has to act like my mom to all my employees. I would NOT want to trade places with her for one day. I could not handle it. and she is buying me a vehicle  thanks, Ron |
