We'll probably be spending less on maintenance moving forward.

The big-ticket stuff is done now, until 160K miles.

We have 85K on it. Bought it in 2016 with 27K. About 7K miles/year.

I want



next.

I don't spend extra $$$ for a shinier badge

a suburban would be my pick over an Escalade
In any sort of practical consideration, no doubt about it.  But humans are not practical often as not.  What is the practical value of jewelry or expensive watches?  We drove around a bit in NW Atlanta yesterday marveling at the mansions, mile after mile, some look more like hotels.  My wife noted the folks probably have 2-3-4 vacation homes to boot.  Think of a couple living in a 12 bedroom mansion with 35 rooms overall.  Practical?  I guess if money means nothing to you.

agreed, just stating my opinion

I do not own any jewelry

I live in an 1100 sq foot house with more bedrooms than I need, now that the daughters have moved out

I'm amazed frankly how well FWD cars can perform today.  When I first drove them,  they understeered like crazy.

And getting all that power down it amazing as well without AWD.
