Thinking of a truck

I think you should keep the sports car so you can play speed racer on public roads until your license is suspended. No way you could use the extra cabin room, the ability to haul stuff, or tow a trailer.

Wa?

I have actually had problems holding people a few times, sure the 135i cna hold '4', but not comfortably, for long ... also need somewhere to put my clubs in the winter, and my two huskies.

But but you won't be able to play speed racer on public roads. I mean nothing like blasting through a corner and dodging minivans and blowing by Smoky doing 90 in a 45.

Heh. Where I live it's usually pickup trucks that are the most impatient drivers and prone to speeding. And they almost always have some lame aftermarket dual exhaust kit where one of the pipes is hanging lower than the other.

Sarcasm meter broken?

Time is money.

No doubt. Based on my power usage, and pretending that, say, half of it is heating in the winter (it's a little less, but let's say that), if I spend 1 hour per month dealing with the hassle, it would be more expensive than my electric heat pump. That works out to 2 minutes a day, average, for the entire process. Collecting, chopping, feeding a fire, etc.

It doesn't look like a money saver to me.

That's why I compromised and got a pellet stove.

I buy a winter beater for this function. Spend 8 grand on a used expedition or a pathfinder and keep your other car. Best of both worlds.

Yeah just buy an old Ranger or something
