My husband and I are expecting our third child, so we've made the decision to trade in our paid for 2006 Mazda3 Touring.  Tonight, we found a 2003 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer with 63,400 miles on it.  The vehicle is in great condition from what we can tell.  However, the excess miles concern my husband.  We have also been looking at the newer body style Dodge Durango.  Specifically, we looked at a 2005 Durango Limited that had right at 50,000 miles on it (lots of miles).  And, tonight, we also looked at a Lincoln Aviator - WOW!  These are SUPER nice SUVs.  We fell in love!  We also SORT OF like the newer Ford Explorers, but they aren't our top choice.  We need help deciding!  Are the miles on the Expedition that excessive?  It seems that most all SUVs we've looked at have high mileage for their age.  Also, which would you prefer?  Whatever we get has to last us a while (I've had quite a few cars in the last 2-3 years, and my husband is finally telling me enough - this is it!)  So, PLEASE HELP!  I'm doing some serious car shopping on Tuesday morning (10/31).  So, if at all possible, please send your advice soon!  Thanks SO SO SO very much for your help!  

We just bought a 2007 Tahoe and couldn't be happier, the fit and finish and over all is excellent, and lots of room for kids and stuff!
The price was 40,000 as we got the LT2 with Ostar(I recommend that)there are less expensive 07 Tahoe's, but we plan to keep it for at least 10 years or more so it was the obvious winner.
