Trek is local to me, and the 7.3 fx is not a bad ride. If I could test ride a Giant Escape 1, I'd compare it, but no one local has one to ride (with-in 75 miles). The Giant is on my short list. But... What LD says about upgrading may be the right approach at this point.
I've riden the 7.3, but not the 7.2 yet. I know there are more differences between the two, but above is what is most important to me at this point.
