35i or 50i

[jazzyj13]

Hello all, I 've got a 01 4.4 with 75k on it and have poured quite a few dollars into to it recently, all of it age related maintenance gaskets orings etc. The car is in great shape but I've chased this oil leak I've recently developed, 1st did the oil filter housing gasket then the lower oil pan gasket hoping it wasn't the upper one and of course it's the upper one and at this point I've had enough. I want to get into a 2013 before production ends because I'm not that hot on the 3rd gen from what I've seen and even if I was head over heels about it I would never buy the 1st years model. I'm torn between getting a 50i or 35i, having the 4.4 I love the power but it's a really thirsty car. I think long term the 50i is more desirable if I ever plan on selling. What do you guys think.
