Can you get one of those for 18K,,doubt it...Nuff said..
The Taurus x yes. As for the others, I'd be perfectly willing to pay 10 grand more for a much nicer, more efficient, more spacious car (the Acadia). Oh yeah, and for 18k you won't get a new journey with a third row, either.

I don't know anything about the Tarus X or the Mercedes R, but I have heard and read a lot of feedback on the Acadia. Go to the Acadia forum under real world gas mileage. Most of the posters can't get over 15-16. Also, I just read that GMC will most likely not get a 2nd gen Acadia. Wrong move. Although too large for my needs, it was the best of the 3 (or 4, or 5 or...) lambdas. Bad move , GM.

Umm Taurus X YES. It was just a breif comparison, and the Ford clearly wins out.

I've heard that, and I've heard much higher- as much as a combined average of 22. 15-16 is what everyone says the Journey gets. though it is sad it's being discontinued.

We were comparing functionality, and no Journey fan should speak about styling. The Journey is a plain wagon. Now let's get to a real argument.

Chrysler version

I know it was shelved about a year ago, but Journey sales seem to be going strong. I like the Journey more and more everytime I see it. It seems like a Chrysler version would be great- with some 300C styling, a better interior and about 50+ more horsepower. But I guess Chrysler has too any other problems to deal with.

I agree with a Chrysler version once the new Phoenix engines come out, but the styling would have to be drastically different...and no lines in the hood.

what is up with the lines on the hood? is that from a past model or something? I looked at the new sebring when I bought my journey (not to buy one, chrysler has a reputation for making beautiful looking cars with loads of mechanical problems) and HATED the lines on the hood! I cannot figure out why they did that, isnt there lines on the new durango too?
