Yeah! And I can carry a hell of a lot more in that Ferrari I'm eyeing.

:rolleyes:

So you pack your X to the hilt on every trip you make?[/b]
You betcha. If I can carry it on my back, I take the bike. If it fits in the wife's car, we take it. If it doesn't all fit in there, we take the X.[/b]
Well, then, I think you should sell the Xterra and get a minivan. Gets about the same gas mileage (or better) and can hold twice as much. So your numbers would be even better.

I still don't buy it that you fill the Xterra to the hilt when travelling in it. Any space not filled is wasted gas, by your argument.
