that is so right on, it’s not even funny. Last summer at the JAX airport, en route to amelia island, we had to cool our heels and have lunch there at the airport because they were out of cars! No problem this time, we had a huge-@$$ed Expedition. I know both SG and Whyis have big behemoths like that, but dang, it sucks gas and it would not fit in our garage! i liked sitting up even higher in it, though. We needed it because we had luggage and 6 adults [five of us and xsteen’s bf], but on a day to day basis, we just don’t need something that big.
My lease is up in Feb i think and i will prob get another highlander. I like it, and my only requirement is something that will recognize my ipod without having to plug it in!
We had this GMC Yukon when we were in Jacksonville. Lots of room for 4 of us and our luggage.
You should enjoy the bluetooth integration, but it makes you want to be able to do more. If I can get calls on my phone through my car radio, I should also be able to do other things.
Like, the entire screen on the car should be able to be the same as your phone, so you can access everything. Of course, idiots will watch videos and cause accidents, so they probably don’t do that on purpose.
My car could read my text messages (if I had an Android phone), but would only allow me to send canned messages. No dictating, to avoid distractions.
The streaming audio only works with iphone and not android. So you have to choose.
I drive a tahoe, which is smaller than a suburban but still a big vehicle! I love riding in it but it isn’t the easiest thing to park....
My Suburban is smaller than an Expedition, which I don’t think would fit in my garage either. I love my silver bullet. Room for everything and I get to sit up high. It is the lowest maintenance vehicle we own.
And cameras for parking ;)
