D'oh...nothing new there.
My salesman called me a couple weeks ago to see if I was interested in a 2018 Highlander. Told him no. I only have 44,400 kilometers on my 5 year old 2013 Highlander and it will do unless I give up towing a boat. Then a nice new RAV4 truck or a Subaru Forester will take care of my needs.

Why change vehicles when you stop towing a boat? Just drive the highlander
till it gets old and dies. Save a lot of Loonies.

He'd be better off using uber and renting a truck when he decides
to move the boat around. City dwellas rarely need a car and he
wouldn't even need to rent a truck if he stored his boat at a
marina.

About 5000 miles a year. Trade in the highlander and look at really high
per mile cost. Probably rent a limousine rates.

Dog wouldn't like that. He expects to be driven to his favourite park at least three times a week. We do have 'Share a car' here. You join up and pay an hourly rate to use the community vehicle.

Old original colonial era city streets tend to be narrow and a bit congested. Think Boston on a smaller scale. A Subaru Forester had great visibility and it's smaller footprint would make parking etc a bit easier around town.

I know a couple of guys with that Subaru model, and they love 'em.

The RAV4 rates a bit more reliable and I'm not sure if I'd like the CV transmission...otherwise the Forester would probably be at the top of my list.

I was thinking of getting my wife a Subaru Forester when she wanted to
get a new car last year, but the Toyota dealer won out because his store
was close-by.

I can walk to either but the Toyota dealer is closer. They have a shuttle service if the weather is bad, I'm in a hurry or I just feel lazy.
Last week our Highlander was in to get the passenger side and hood painted because of a Christmas Day high wind event that bombarded us with roof shingles. Insurance provided a vehicle for the week. I had asked for a Forester but they wanted to give me a Nissan Pathfinder as an equivalent replacement. I wan't planning any towing so I said no sir. Ended up with a Ford Edge, which didn't impress me much.
