Than he will buy one, no matter what anyone on here says. God forbid I was trying to reccomend something that would likely suit his needs better. But you are probably right he does need the extra 4 cu ft of cargo space (over a pilot) and will be towing a trailer. Because god only knows how often I see Expeditions driving around with a full load of passengers and cargo while towing a trailer, instead of having one soccer mom and maybe a kid in the car driving to wally world or some place. Excuse me for having recommended a more reliable vehicle that costs less to maintain, own and would depreciate less, all while using less fuel and performing the same funcitons.






ALl i know is if you get the Expedition and you start to whine about gas prices, I won't be there to sympathize with you . Go with the Pilot, it's a lot nicer, better resale, and it's a lower maintenence car. If you must however, get a used Navigator, it's pretty affordable as well and depreciates so well (I mean that lower years are quite affordable), or even a used Tahoe.
