I Don`t mean to be rude Bro.... but there are some better choices out there, for your family + gear hauling situation, with better gas mileage.

No disrespect, from me > I am just being brutally honest.

I love those things. Only vehicle out there with 3 row seating and a strait axle in the front from the factory.

I'd still rather have a Quigley.

Is that Mandy?

I COMPLETELY agree with you Darren. I tried to talk her into ANYTHING else. I was even test driving Caravans and Windstars cause she HATES Safastros. I would've loved an Odyssey or a Roadmaster Wagon. But she has always wanted an Excursion and we sold her Explorer for the same price we got this less $1000. These things are selling cheap cause no one wants them cause they SUCK fuel like crazy. lol If I could've gotten a Diesel or a Quigley for the price we paid for this I would've! Oh well....... If mama ain't happy, no one's happy.
