Hi all, I am considering buying an SUV, and I really fell in love with the new looks of Ford Explorer (starting from 2006).
:
-Considering the poor resale value, would it really be a big loss if I keep the car for 3-4 years? The car retails here for around $29000 with fabric seats(ie. basic model), with 60k kilometers (around 38k miles) service and maintenance. Considering alternatives, I see the Toyota Prado VX with better resale value, but it starts (basic) at around $34000 (no free service) for the 6 cylinder 4 litre. 4 cylinder prado is cheaper, little more than explorer, but i would not want to take it (GX). Besides I really liked the interior of explorer. Am i right about the interior? I also think that for resale, if I lose 25% in a year on Explorer and say 18% on prado, the $ amount is not a big difference?? please comment..
-Since I drive long distances, how does its fuel efficiency compare to Mitubishi Pajero 2005(Montero 2005),nissan pathfinder and prado 6 cylinder
