My wife will NOT drive a mini van, and I appreciate it. She really likes the Navigator, so an SUV will be as close to a mini van as she will get

Well we only have black vehicles, they just look sharp, not too mention Henry Ford said we could have any color as long as it's black...

It worked out that the F250 was black. I was hopping for a red one. Our SHO was red.
