Hi))
There is another important nuance here that I did not mention right away, in Russia we have increased customs duties on cars with an engine capacity of more than 3 liters, and less than 3 years old) and therefore it turns out that a car, for example, a Yukon 6.2 liter in Russia costs about 200 thousand dollars, and a Yukon 3 liter diesel and a Grand Wagoneer 3.0 T cost about 150 thousand dollars... I really don’t like diesel, and I don’t want one)))
And now I'm sitting here thinking...is my love for the V8 worth $50,000)))
As for my place of residence, you are not quite right)) I live in a large metropolis, in the capital of Russia, Moscow)))) I just love to travel by car, around Russia and neighboring countries, that's why I have a lot of photos from the mountains or forests) in particular, photos in the snow, this photo was taken on the other side of the Ural Mountains, in Siberia, in winter, at a temperature of -40C.
Your photos look great and I assumed you were in a more rural location. Either way it’s hard to beat performance of a V8
But. Wow!!!
That is a lot extra $ for the 6.2l V8!

The option of keeping your current rig is a definitely something to consider.
From my experience it is not worth getting a new vehicle if you’re not going up in performance or value.

If it’s possible to rent a Wagoneer for a few days to a week that might help you make a decision. Even if it’s expensive, it might be worth the cost as you can expierence some of the things that are mentioned in the other posts.

The performance, sound and the look of the rear dual exhaust with 4 tail pipes is a totally different experience than a twin turbo V6.

Sooner or later, it always comes down to money and taxes (I guess those are the same thing).
In this case I guess you could buy yourself the Wagoneer and a Honda-CRV or Toyota RAV4 as a spare, for when the Wagoneer is broken down :D
Or you could just get a Yukon and keep loving it.
Or, you could see if you can get that beautiful ride you currently own to take you another 100K.
No, having two cars is not an easy task))) And there is no point, just for the sake of a reserve? We have a great car sharing service, if your car breaks down, you can always take any of the thousands of free ones in the city and go about your daily business.

Yes, there is logic in your words. We have a phrase, "To swap one awl for another". It means that you exchange one not very important thing for another not very important thing))) and a car is exactly that, not very important, but we, men, really like it) As for my Yukon, I have an assumption that it may require serious expenses in units. Thank God I didn't have a problem with the 6.2 engine, but the automatic transmission and suspension will obviously wear out by 200,000 km. And the engine itself, it seems to me, may require attention.
The funny thing is that after owning the Yukon for 2.5 years, I still haven't gotten tired of the way it looks. I see people paying attention to it when it's parked, kids regularly come up to take pictures with it. Damn, the Yukon is awesome, and I really like the 2025 Yukon. But I realize that I'm not getting much new in the 25 Yukon.
and Wagoneer gives something new, new functions, new sensations. Unfortunately, we can't rent it, it's too rare a car.
