I assume we are talking about the CRJ200 and ERJ135/140/145
I haven't flown the ERJ, but have sat in the cockpit jumpseat (which is terribly small, but I appreciate the crew for squeezing me in)... IMHO, the ERJ felt like riding in a Kia SUV, while the CRJ seems to be built a lot sturdier... like riding/driving a Chevy Suburban. My terrible analogy is just to say the CRJ seems like a much more "solid" airplane... not nearly as cheap. The ERJ is also a lot louder in the back and although neither airplane is very passenger friendly, the CRJ seems to be less passenger un-friendly than the ERJ.
Also, everyone knows a man is defined by the size of his gear handle... haha.

last year i was in a crj-7 and erj145 level-d sim, from the few hours i was in both i came to like the crj more. i really didnt like the erj's yoke, and the crj was easier to fly it seemed, thats just a few reasons. oh my aviater is me in the crj.

The CRJ looks like a pig, little stumpy wheels, sits real low to the ground, the 200 anyway. The 700 is nice the 900 looks too silly, I mean how much farther are you going to stretch the thing?

He is entitled to an opinion, just as you are. If he had cast a vote for the ERJ, I bet your respone would be different.
Because you have told us time and time .. and time again:
Expressjet can do no wrong --> Expressjet operates the ERJ --> The ERJ is the best aircraft ever made. The XR has been known to make grown men cream in their pants
From a passenger standpoint, I haven't noticed any noise difference in the cabin of either aircraft. I do think the ERJ is more comfortable because the windows are at a height where you can see a little better.

Yeah I hate that about the CRJ200, but it seems they fixed the problem in the -700 and -900. Why would they make the windows so low?
