Actually, since you had a trouble-free Explorer for 5 years I'd think you'd get another Ford since you've had such good luck from them!

Replying to: baggs32 (Jan 17, 2008 5:57 pm) Very interesting. In fact we're talking about Hyundai in this thread, if you want to hop over and share that tidbit: ateixeira, "Is There Room in the Luxury Market for Hyundai?" #1141, 18 Jan 2008 10:38 am Hyundai wants to make Kia their value brand and move Hyundai upscale, but as good as the cars are, the memory of the name is still a handicap IMHO. It's simply hard to fathom that the company that used to make the Excel and Scoupe make the Veracruz. Night and day. Maybe they should launch a new brand? Bad timing, as we approach a likely recession. Remember right before the last one, Mazda yanked plans for their upscale division, what was it going to be called, Amati IIRC?

For example it doesn’t have variable effort steering as option. For once you are right...it's not an option. It is standard.  At least do a little research before you blast someone's choice.

Replying to: cason1 (Jan 18, 2008 1:15 pm)  You made a good choice with the Acadia vad. I think you should enjoy it. Just because I, or others, felt another vehicle was better than the Acadia for me/us, don't sweat it so much. I'm not sure what you are chasing. Are you looking for every member to agree that the Acadia is the best of the lot and end the discussion there? You've shared your feelings on the matter - abundantly. I (and the others) hear you. But it may be time to move past. I don't think any of the vehicles in this thread are bad choices. In fact I think they are all very good choices. I've driven pretty much all of them, some several times. We're fortunate we all have the resources to even consider them in our car purchase decision. I'll try and lead us in another, slightly more productive, positive direction... The CX9 SUCKS!

Replying to: cjsb (Jan 18, 2008 2:01 pm) I have to go against that. The CX-9 was a great example of breaking the mold. I like that they tried to bring sport CUV to the mainstream- and they were decently succesful (It doesn't look awesome, but they did a decent styling job.
