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.
