They used to call that all-purpose vehicle a station wagon.

I still think hatchbacks are one of the THE BEST all-purpose vehicles out there!

There is a diminishing return on owning more vehicles. Having 10 different vehicles to do 10 different things is NOT the way to go.

I was mostly thinking that most people have more than one vehicle, so why not have ones that compliment each other?



PS: I have NEVER financed any automobile. My current daily driver was bought for $100 cash. The pickup truck was bought for $1000 cash, and my wife still drives the car that her family generously got for her college graduation.
