(and girls) I have a question. I've been looking at first cars for me, I'm 15 heading into highschool. Unrelated I have a project lifted 86' fiero, an amazing 95' f150, and a lifted 94' Miata. (redneck area, gotta lift it or I'll be just another hairdresser) but I want a "daily". I have my eye on a 1999 Ford expedition with a blown trans. I could get that and fix it for under $1500 and have a great running expedition, or I could save/wait for a good deal on a excursion v10. What are the main differences between the two engines/drivetrains/amenities/daily luxuries/ and anything else I should know about the difference between the two vehicles. I'm probably looking at the 1999-2005 years. I'm looking for big and loud, is the expedition really that much smaller than the excursion? Also I would prefer leather seats so when I'm done swimming I don't have to worry about drying off. Just hop in an bounce. They get about the same mpg right? Its probably gonna cost me $15 in gas just to get to town but I have a good job so that's fine. Also I've heard the expedition 4wd isn't true 4wd, I would like something that has more of a truck platform like the excursion cause 4wd is very helpful in the winter where I live. Snow, ice, mud, and one steep *** driveway to get home. Anyway, any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Will
PS there's no way I'm getting a Chevy… No the Blazer or suburban.
