Garage Floor: Epoxy vs. Tiles...?

My family & I are moving to a different town. The garage floor at our new place is about 15 years old, but in fairly good shape. It is a 3 car garage with a floor drain.

Not wanting a oil stained messy garage floor like I have now, I'm trying to weigh the pro's and con's of finishing the garage floor. The garage is already insulated and sheetrocked and painted (white) but it is not heated (I live in MN).

The epoxy finishes sound nice, but I'm worried about "peeling" and longevity. The tiles are more expensive, but I can take them with me if I ever move. But the tiles might shift around under the drive wheels (or worse yet, under my jack stands).

So those of you who have finished your garage floors: What would you do now, knowing what you know now...?

Thanks,

- Patrick
