Jeeps and BMWs sound a lot like my list, with a couple random makes thrown in:
1972 Audi Fox
1984 Saab 900S
1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee (still with me as my dog and airport car although I fear she's reaching the end of the line without some significant investment)
1996 BMW Z3 (fun car, newlyweds, no kids)
1998 E36 M3 Sedan (along came kids)
2002 E53 X5 4.4i (More kids...now my 4.6 swapped in 2022, overland project, daily driver)
2004 E46 M3 (kids got older)
2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland (wife's car and still with us...about 80k)
The X5 after the 4.6 swap and other work is definitely my favorite BMW I've owned. Of the others, I wish I still had the E36 M3 sedan.
I don't like the looks of the new Grand Cherokees and incresingly I find myself on the BMW USA site building different color X5 xDrive 45e versions. 52 MPG from an X5 with net 389 HP sounds pretty amazing as I watch the needle go down in real time in my "4.6i" - it is a beast and tons of fun so no chance its leaving the barn any time soon, but my wife's jeep is getting along in milage, and I am not sure I want to find out if it is going age well.
