However, why get a BMW X5 when a smaller, less expensive, and more efficient vehicle will do (a hatchback, coupé, or compact sedan)? If I lived in NYC, I'd just get an Astra or Mini Cooper for the occasional weekend journey.

What part of Vermont in the winter sounds like a Mini Cooper would be appropriate?

As i mentioned, different strokes. What smaller vehicle will allow people with my circumstance or lifestyle to tow a variety of trailers up to 6k lbs?

10k miles/16tkm a year is useless unless you intend to use it solely as a status-mobile in NYC.

Or, one has 3 cars and 3 m'cycles in the garage; very difficult to
do 10k miles/yr on any of them. And, being a retired bum helps, too. :rofl:

True. I can hardly imagine having that many choices in the garage in the morning. "Hmmm, which one should I take today?" :yikes:.

I guess it is possible to divvy up 25k miles amongst multiple cars, though it's hard to imagine myself doing that. :dunno:
