we always used to have the following line up:

1 or 2 sedans
1 serious sports car
1 SUV

the current line up consists of sedans only and i gotta say, i'm missing the serious sports car most

i ski, and the skis go in the IS (yes, through the pass thru) ... not having an suv doesn't put a huge kink in anything we do it just means being a little more creative or getting things sent ahead of you / shipped to your house / w.e, though that has rarely happened to me

but asside from all of that ... buy the one you actually like the best, you'll be happier that way

My Subaru Outback, in some ways, gives me the best of both worlds. Car handling, car gas mileage, SUV traction, and semi-SUV room for hauling things in back, though it won't take big things like refrigerators.

Based on the poll choice alone, I'd have to agree. It's hard to beat an LS as an overall great car.

Haha looks like 1SICK added a poll Great input guys, I'm leaning more towards the LS now. If I do got the SUV route I think I'll take the MDX over the RX.

I had an MR2 as my primary car for years and years. I would not have traded the fun I had in that car for anything! In fact, I still have it.

On the rare occasion I needed to haul something I could usually borrow a friend's pickup or I would just rent a Home Depot truck for $20 for 90 minutes. Much cheaper in the long run than paying for, insuring, and fueling a truck or SUV. Plus, they are just NOT FUN to drive.

I'd go for the LS, no questions.

We have 2 sedans and a pickup truck problem solved The Tacoma come in handy when making runs to home depot, going camping, or picking up items that wont fit in the car. Just get a used truck, or as others have mentioned have items delivered, or use a friends truck ( I personally hate to borrow anything ).

Get the LS!
