[QUOTE="Blk04L, post: 16173465, member: 48574"] For me it's not so much about total cost, as it's about getting bang for your buck. Guess I just don't see the point in a smaller 3 row SUV when you can buy a Platinum Expedition for nearly the same cost. Sure the interior of the Aviator will blow some away and be a key selling point. But the Plat Expedition has more space, nice interior and is bigger. And Lincoln doesn't carry the prestige that much over anything. So it's not we are comparing an Acura to a Benz. To me, the smaller Explorers/aviators make sense when you needed three rows but couldn't afford the full size of equal trim. Of course that's just the way I see it. For example, I've cross shopped between the Yukon, expedition and the Durango and Explorer for my wife. All three can sit 3 rows and can fold the rear seat for more space. The upside to the Durango/Explorer was that they were cheaper in cost. Of course trade offs were frame, width and towing IIRC. It's almost like comparing the small pick ups to a 1500. They are cool, but there's a limit most are willing to spend cause then you can get a full size truck for nearly the same price. [/QUOTE]
