Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and I would greatly appreciate some pointers. I do not want to rehash old threads, but please point me what to search for.
Quickly about myself. I have two BMWs at the moment, but with the second kid and a babysitter it is getting really tight. In addition to that, we spend much time outdoors, biking, kayaking, etc., so I have a lot of gear and I am sick and tired of messing with my multiple roof racks every time I need a few 2x4s Generally, I am highly technical, with in-depth understanding of automotive design.
Bottom line I am shopping for an Expedition, but I know next to nothing about the vehicle ownership experience other then the size/specs look about right and I do not want a minivan because of lack or 4WD and ground clearance issues. That being said I am thinking to pick up something with under 50k miles circa 2007. I would like to keep it for about 10 years with about 5k/year mileage (weekends and winter driving). I tend to do most repairs myself.
Thanks much, Igor
