The depreciation on some newer models does make them compelling. I too have owned many Audi models and the reliability is why I don’t now. 

I love them as well, they are perfect for an Alaska year round tire. Ask on the Mazda CX-5 forums and about 90% of drivers use them

none here in Alaska 

Nice offering and should be a great sales success but I would still get the Corolla Cross Hybrid over this. 

I would love to see a range test with a roof top tent installed and see what that does to mileage. I bet nothing dramatic though. 

That Escala looks better than anything CT on sale now 

I would get them the Corolla Cross Hybrid. Perfect size and reasonably affordable.

I live in an apartment complex and can’t keep my EV. American Government, “Everyone needs to own EVs by20XX” even if you live in an apartment. lol

I would go buy a Panamera, but the styling isn’t to everyone’s taste.

If you are going sedan, what about the 4th GEN Lexus GS. Great value now. 

but the CTS-V Wagon will go up in value

You know someone will 3D print that and make millions off of it.

Or maybe they like to buy the square red solo cups.

What about a used Genesis? 

We absolutely love out 2017 Murano Platinum. Most comfortable car I have ever driven. Seats are amazing. Was going to buy another one but didn’t need the size and went with a CX-5 as second car. 

I have always been a big Audi head owned six of them and even the first gen Allroad a 2005. When I saw the new Allroad come out I was like, someday I will own one. Then I saw the TourX in person and didn’t hesitate to say, “Now there is a car I would gladly pick over the Allroad.” I was blown away by the styling. Now…

This always comes to mind when I think of the trio

you must also be in Alaska like me. 

Michelin CC2 are the only tire I have been running. If you plan to keep your car forever then the $1000 price tag is easy to justify.

and in that color
