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 agree on both points: Hatchbacks are one of the best all-purpose vehicles. I never would of imagine agreeing with those words until I got one. I tolerated it at first, but then something happened. It turns out it was one heckuva design. Commuting economy, the ability to haul LOTS, and to still have some fun.

My philosophy -- if you need anything bigger than a small car or wagon, it's cheaper to rent it for a day or so, than to finance it, insure it, fuel it, maintain it, etc, etc...

Do the Math.
