Anyone take a close look at this vehicle? My wife has an MDX - 13 months old and 20k miles. Loves it.

We are looking for a second vehicle. I am getting rid of a BMW sedan and looking for something to haul 3 kids in. I'm going to be Mr. Mom for the next year or so, so I need something more practical than my bimmer. Would rather not get a 2nd car the same as my wifes, so I'm looking at the Highlander

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks in advance!

Another thought

We just bought a new 2002 Honda CRV yesterday -- very nice -- awesome car, and great engine -- 165hp intelligent vtec. It is MUCH bigger than the 2001s, and a great car -- plus, you could get it for 20,440 including 4wd and a bunch of stuff.

I would take a serious look at it if you haven't.

Deposit - April 01 - held off for the '02 RedRock Pearl Touring / Nav -- build date of 12/15-12/19. Picked up car on 1/2/02 - happy new year!

Installed the Acura BSMs, wood shift knob, rear splash guards, Tailgate Deflector, and WT mats from Tim. at <a href="http://www.hondacuraworld.com">http://www.hondacuraworld.com</a>

Boards installed by the dealer. Also modified center console power to be always on.

10/03 Update -- traded the 2002 RedRock in for a 2003 Midnight Blue - Touring/Nav/Rear Ent. that I actually like much better than the 2002 - quieter, tighter, and a little quicker....

Already had both outlets converted to always on..

02/2007 update - just traded the 03 midnight blue MDX for a silver / black 2007 tech / RES. I really like it - going to add AW mats and tray and sport running boards.
