[quote=Anonymous]I learned how to drive in an old Ford Explorer, the one that was still on the truck chassis. My dad taught me to drive it like a truck, with slow turns and long braking distances. My new Escape is on a car chassis and handles better, but I still drive it like a truck. The speeds that I see other driver's taking corners/curves in their larger SUVs is frightening. I don't think driving an SUV is harder than a car (since I learned on an SUV, I think they're easier, but my husband learned to drive in a sedan and prefers them). But I do think you should drive them differently. While your DS is learning to drive, he can learn these things. If you'll be using your old SUV for weekend trips to Home Depot or whatever, keep it. If it will just sit for two years, sell it now. That's my recommendation.[/quote]
