New/Used SUV Needed - Recommendations?

I don't see the Explorer / Truck thing with Ford. Like ford trucks, but their suv's ,,no. Brakes too small for vehicle and too floaty a feel for the road.( I owned one for a few years)

Truer words have not been spoken.

I complained bitterly to the dealer when I had to get my rotors replaced for the second time in 2 years* on my old explorer. He gave me some BS line about the EPA (or some other vehicle related three letter agency) not allowing heavy duty brakes on the Exploders. The same brakes used on the Frigging Ford Ranger goes on the Explorers. Horrible.


*both times I had to get them replaced was because some anus for brains pulled out in front of me and I had to lock the brakes up. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

know it's not funny to you, but thanks for the laugh. The anus for brains add-on story made me laugh out loud.
