[The Duke]

This article reminds me, my 2003 Expedition should be out of the shop today and ready to go out for new upholstery. Then my 2007 will be ready for a bit of work. I prefer the 2003 to the 2007 because it's got better space for a dog (and NEITHER has anything resembling a touch screen, for all of the above-mentioned reasons.)

I do like the idea of backup cameras, though.

Back up cameras are becoming an accident hazard. Folks rely on them too much out of habit and are backing right out in front of on coming traffic from the sides. So you are actually better off turning your head and looking anyway.
