You really should look at GM unless you are dead set on one of the two.My wife loves her Denaili.

Thats a totaly different engine.They are sludging up.so is Toyota even if you change the oil every 3000.Out of all the cars I see every day Nissan techs have the most engines apart.They used to just change the engine now they are having techs repair/rebuild them.

The terrain as a gas hog? How do you figure? The 4 cylinder gets 32 highway and there's tests avg 29 (motorweek for one) on mixed? The 6 cylinder in the Equinox/Terrain doesn't add a lot in my mind, the 4 cyl is the better buy.
There is no SUV that gets better mileage than the 4 cyl equinox/terrain, and they will absolutely kill an Edge in that dept.
I too like the irony of an Escalade and Prius haha.

I am in car dealerships all day as I am in tool and equipment sales.Nissan seems to be having more problems than Ford.There quality seems as all the Asian vehicles seems to be dropping.Nissan has a lot of engine problems.So if those are your two choices I would pick Ford.
The Murano has been around a while now and is starting to show its age, but its a great vehicle for sure.
I would disagree on engines though- The VQ series is superb.
The Nissan VQ series V6 engine has been in Ward's 10 Best Engines list every year from the list's inception until 2009.
