Well...my son's getting his drivers license soon, and I have to take the Mystique away from the wife and give it to him, but what should I buy the wife? Explorer (XLT or Eddie Bauer, Escape (XLT Premium), or Windstar (LX or SE)? We looked at an Explorer, theyre nice, but with the 'Slade, the house, lake and all that fun stuff...we're not sure if we can afford an Eddie Bauer, and the XLT dosent have some of the stuff we want (Fog lamps, heated mirrors...), but the XLT is still nice. The Escape is nice, we can afford a fully loaded XLT with leather sunroof and so on...but we have ALOT of wind here, and we're not so sure about stability on the highway. And to the Windstar, one word: IMAGE. My wife is more of a sports sedan/SUV girl...she likes Windstars, nothing wrong with them, but she says she wants 4WD, or AWD.We can afford an LX or SE, we dont want to spend much more on just a minivan. So I need help here, should I get her a basic Explorer XLT, and live without fouglamps and heated mirrors (even though Im sure I can go to the dealer and have them installed), or get an Eddie Bauer and eat less at Outback Steakhouse? Or go with the Escape that she cant drive in wind? OR go with the Windstar and make he stay home when it snows, and give her an "Old soccer mom" image? PLEASE HELP!
