I limit my driving of the X when temp is below zero and only drives the X if the trip is greater than 30 minutes. I mainly drive my FORD Ranger pickup during the winter.
For long trips I rent a car and if the car break along the way I just call the rental company and tell them where there car is and could they get me a replacement car.

I never take my X on long trips. I also go the rental route. I don't have to worry about hail storms, parking where I worry or outside, cement trucks, gravel trucks, trucks sucking sand off the shoulder, eating in the X, blowing a tire that nobody stocks, if something breaks leaving it somewhere or sitting 5 days waiting for parts so that it can be fixed, having to pay dealer repair rates- gives me shivers just thinking about a long trip in my X.
