Most cars are a series of trade-offs. I have both, but the changeover, and planning involved limits usage. Having the option readily at hand makes all the difference. Much like having a motorcycle, it limits what/ who you can carry and what weather you can operate in, but the joy of riding makes it worthwhile when the stars align. Having the option mid-trip can open up opportunities that either by themselves cannot. The main being i can fly someplace, but I'm stuck to taking a taxi (if available) once there, and really stuck if the weather is poor. I agree, for longer trips, nothing beats a dedicated vehicle, but this type of vehicle does have its place.
