Default New ride for Wifey
No not a bike An automobile. She has been driving her 1997 Ford Expedition since 1999. Absolutly wonderfull vehicle that has been trouble free for over 100K miles.

Now it is time for a change due to our growing family and activities.

Any ideas for a full size SUV? Sorry but no mini van due to the need to tow from time to time.

Thanks!

Kid A is selling his late model Grand Cherokee with the small-block V8 in it.

Either that or the VW Touraeg that this hauls a$$ and is extremely hard to break in to

I can be in a touraeg in less than two minutes, but I have inside sources.
