Finally Back in an Expedition

[Edmund K]

I know how you feel, I traded in my Funkmaster Flex Expedition for a 2010 Honda Odyssey and regretted it as we drove off the lot!! (Too many people wanting to gawk at the Funkmaster at any given location, and scared my wife and kids) Ten months later, I got rid of that damned Honda for a dark copper 08 Expedition. That was four years ago, and I'm still glad I got an Expedition back!

Yes I do, and am still as puzzled by the phenomenon now as I was then.
I had people follow me into parking lots, open the doors or stick their heads in the windows without my permission, and generally act like idiots way too often! The last straw for these antics was when my wife was using an ATM and some guy in Time Warner cable TV van rolls up and blocks her in; he jumps out of his van and starts opening the doors to get a look at the interior!! He's gushing about how much he loves the truck and has seen it all over town, and just HAS to see it up close. My two daughters were in their car seats in the back, and were pretty frightened by this overzealous clod. I still don't understand why the black and red paint scheme caused all the constant over-the-top reactions, but we decided we needed to remove ourselves from the "limelight". Now granted, I got an Expy that is dark copper, and it's the only copper Expy in my town, but it has yet to elicit such a paprazzi-like response like the Funkmaster did.

You would want to make real damned sure your state has castle domain laws that apply to a vehicle, otherwise, you need to make a case you were fearing grievous bodily harm or death.

You're right. I should have added "reasonably" before fearing in my response.
