decisions , decisions...

I'm trying to decide on what to do next as far as autos go.. DCX is obviously my brand of choice if you know me. I have the SRT-4 and an '03 SXT.. THe wife drives the SXT for now, but we need to get a larger vehicle as we have two children and a dog. Not exactly easy to move all three in a neon.

I'm not planning on getting rid of the SRT anytime soon, if at all. I would like to hold on to it as long as humanly possible, it's just a fun little car. I do plan on getting the Challenger when that comes out however, and that will replace the SRT as my daily driver, since it will surely be more comfortable, and, *gasp* more fuel efficient

I've been looking at a large array of vehicles for my wife, including non DCX cars such as the Land Rover Discovery II, Porsche Cayenne V6, and the GMC Envoy. We've been juggling back and forth from the Durango, Cherokee, and new commander, which, even though we recently test drove, and LOVED, is not for us, and was deemed, TOO big by my wife Magnums are alway tossed in for good measure.. so anyway.. should I jump on any of the sub $30k that I've listed here, or wait and see about the Nitro and try and sell her that? Of all the vehicles we've looked at, I like the looks of the Land Rover and Commander the best, but the Nitro looks even better, plus, if the rumor of a powerful version is true, I'd be quicker to jump on another dodge proudct than a Land Rover, even if I can get that for only $8k.

Hey L3, don't you hate decisions? But gotta love the variety at least that DCX offers compared to the cookie cutter cars from many other mfr.s.
Of the choices listed, be sure to factor in maintenance and repair costs as well... an issue to be sure with Land Rover and the Cayenne. The Nitro and the Cherokee SRT are so cool, and I love the Magnum.

Maybe this will help... eeenie meeenie mineee mo
Good luck!

yeah, the maintenance is really holding me back on both the rover and the Porsche, and I keep leaning towards dodge every time that I go looking, so Maybe I can convince her to wait.. what is the release time frame anyway?
