We need to clarify exactly WHAT we're talking about when we say "SUV":
My Suburban is registed as a station wagon
It is not over 6,000 lbs & meets the same emissions standards as the pickup trucks do (same engine).
It emits less than 1/2 the pollutants the 1982 Mercedes 380SL I used to mob around in.
It handles on par or better than a Chevy Cavalier.
SOOOooo... As I said before, I'm glad to see the Excursion go:sun: Before I bought the Sub I test-drove Ford's products. Both the Excursion & the Expedition lived up to the SUV stigma (IMHO).
