The classic reason: "expanding family". We are a two car family and I insist on holding onto my 4WD Dakota to haul around my dirtbike. That effectively leaves the SVT as my wife's car. We also do a lot of skiing and so far the Dakota has shouldered that responsibility, however with an infant seat things become more complicated. In short, the SVT cannot haul our skis and an infant at the same time, plus my ski boots get cold in the trunk. We are looking at a VW Passat wagon. I am leaning towards the 1.8 with 5speed maunual as it tends not to wallow as much as the V6. Although they both handle like s*&# compared to the SVT.
The car is in nice shape, lives in a garage, doesn't see much winter duty, comes with two sets of tires and rims.
I am just in the process of throwing it up on Canada Trader right now. Asking price $14500. (Damm low financing rates on new cars has DESTROYED the used car market.
