I'm just citing a bunch of stuff I do with my Wrangler that I can't do with my Crosstrek. From a financial standpoint, every time you switch vehicles, you lose a bunch of money. So there's that. Your best financial move is to just keep what you've got as long as its reliable. So we'll see you again around 2034 or so, when the Toyota starts to die.
To answer your questions, I have yet to offroad my truck although I would like to and think it would be a good time, but having to travel almost 2-3 hours to get there isn’t always in the cards.
I do frequently go to Home Depot and wood working has become somewhat of a hobby of mine, other than that, picking up furniture, hauling my dog in the back seat and the occasional surfboard trip is about all the action the bed sees. Can this be fixed with a roof rack? Can a WRX STi haul a trailer?
I would lose about 6k on the trade which kind of sucks, but if it keeps me from constantly thinking about getting one, it would be well worth it
