2013 BMW X5d. Great all-around DD. Averaging 21+mpg around town. Just hit 90k miles. My oldest son gets his license in 2 years. Figure I'll give him the X5d, and get myself a new D90 at that time.
Got a 2015 TRD Pro last year. Didn’t think I’d buy a black car again but it looks good dirty. Love rolling down the rear window on hot days. Flash your lights if you spot my 000 license frame.
Nice RS6, especially in gray! Have only seen one in the wild.
Me: Last of the 6MT Wagons - 2019 VW Alltrack SEL. White/Marrakesh Brown
Wife: 2019 Porsche Macan S - Gray/Red
Not to derail thread but disagree with this. Similar to the 997.2 RS dampener issue, and some of it driven by vendors. If I have to hang on to only one car, it will be the e90 M3 with 6 MT (my daily driver).
agreed, I work at a BMW dealer and we've never seen one ''blow up'' including one that's pushing 150k
How do those Land Cruisers ride? I've been a Merc G wagon and it rode like crap. I imagine a bulletproof 'yota rides pretty bad as well.
They are relatively heavy, hugely capable off road, and have a somewhat short wheelbase, so natural laws of physics and handling dynamics apply. That said they are smooth quiet and comfortable.
“With a ride quality that's smooth and well-planted, the Land Cruiser delivers comfortable driving dynamics. Its steering feel is light, however, and there's a fair amount of body roll. Rival SUVs in this price range offer handling that's more rewarding. In spite of its beefy exterior, the Land Cruiser is relatively quick off the line. It's also capable of towing up to 8100 pounds...”

I traded in a 2008 G500 for a 2016 LC. LC was smooth, fit my large family but also didn't drive like a huge car. They are bullet proof but the gas mileage and depreciation from new offsets that quite a bit. Ended up trading that for another car I thought my wife wanted. I'd still get a 2016+ model with around 100k miles if they get to around $50k.
