We were set on getting a Mazda Tribute or Ford escape, but my husband and I took one look at the very sleek and classy Mariner and we were hooked. The interior and exterior looks very expensive, but the Mariner isn't at all expensive. Definetly consider buying a Mariner. You get more quality and car for your money. :)Pros: The Styling
