I bought the Expedition jogging stroller on clearance after Christmas last year.I am not a jogger or a runner, but I do like to take long walks with my son.Many of the parks we go to have gravel trails and I thought a jogging stroller would be easier to manage on them.I have been really happy with this stroller.

It has three wheels with bicycle tires and they make it much easier to push over bumpy surfaces.The front wheel doesn't swivel so you have to tilt it up to turn, but once you get used to it it's not a problem.It has a storage basket underneath.It's not too big, but it holds quite a bit.It has 2 cupholders on the handle and a small compartment that great for keys and other small items you might need.It also has a 5 point harness that keeps baby nice and safe. It folds down easily, although it does take two hands, and it fits in the trunk of my Camry. Sometimes it's a liitle difficult to fit in, but if you get turned just right it will.

The only thing that really bugs me about it is that you have to recline the seat all the way back to fold it up and that's a pain to do.It has one of those string sliders to reposition the seat and that's hard to do, especially while trying to hold a baby.I also wish that the sun canopy was bigger or would move down more.I can't always get it in a good position to block the sun.Overall, I'm really happy with this stroller, it's not perfect, but then I haven't found one that is.

Sounds like this one is just an okay stroller. I think the adjusting of the seat is a big turn off issue. I would think they would have made a correction to the design so not to make it work like that!

I am by far not a runner, but I so wanted a jogging stroller when mine were younger.
