Good move. Is it the new one with the new 3.5/3.7 V6? I thought the older 3.5 V6 was a tad rough around the edges (get it), but the new one is pretty damn nice (big improvement on the interior and engine). Ford is stepping up in the engine department. Their new 5.0, Ecoboost, and direct injection engines are nice!

Yup I likes the edge. We got 1 as a rental right now. I drove one last wk. As I get to usually pick my rentals I always seem to look for the edge. Lol

Who do you rent through? Enterprise has been hooking me up lately. I usually reserve a compact, and the last few times I have had a VW CC, 300C, MB GLK, etc....

Yeah estimated to get to peak at 7 bucks a gallon eventually.. (Prolly in the Cali area, but if it's that much in other places, it's gonna get higher here too) Was lucky to get 12MPG in that expedition, and that being our family car was NOT very economical.. We didn't need a V8 anyway, we're not pulling anything, so it made no sense..

It's an 08 3.5L V6.. LOVE the inside of that thing.. Black leather w/ white accent stitching, brushed aluminum and chrome accents, full panoramic sunroof, DVDs in each headrest for the kids, sync, 20" sport mag chrome wheels, and navi..

Very nice vehicle.. MUCH more sporty to drive and definitely easier to maneuver.. And more importantly BETTER Gas Mileage and is cheaper to fill up.. It was over 100 bucks to fill up the expedition now.. That's just BS!!
