The purpose of a car is NOT always to get you from point A to Point B
We have multiple cars. B”H money is not an issue in this stage of our lives. All the kids are married and earning good salaries. The house is long paid for.
That said, Mrs. CTL has her original 1971 Jaguar XKE V12 Convertible. It comes out of the garage east summer for pure enjoyment sake. She has a modern SUV for daily point A to B driving.
I have a large luxury sedan….it is often used to transport clients. I would not do that in a Honda or Hyundai, etc. When billing $500 per hour the clients expect the attorney to drive a luxury auto. I won’t drive German or Japanese which is why most of our cars are English.
I also own a 1972 Harley Davidson Motorcycle I bought when I was in college. Definitely not for getting from A to B, BUT when I need a release, a long rode through the northwest hills of Connecticut is great therapy.
We have never owned a minivan, we were the generation who had 9 or 10 passenger station wagons.
