> And once a year or so, cross country. The key is to not over-value this. If your daily driver is also good at a rare cross country trip then that's great, but how bad is it really if it's not and you need to rent a vehicle with different capabilities once a year? If you're comparing two vehicles and one of them is a better fit for your daily driving and regular recurring needs while not being the best for rare uses, while the other is better at the rare use cases while being worse every other day, it seems like an easy choice to me but a lot of people will entirely count out the first one because it doesn't do the rare things well.
