Deciding on a car to buy
Howdy, I'm currently in the market for a new vehicle (SE US). The vehicle will be used primary for driving to work (45-1.25HR 1 way), as well as possible pulling boats for a chartering business I plan on starting this year. Due to how much I drive in general, I can't really justify the costs of a gasoline truck for my day to day driving just for the option of towing so I've been looking at other options. Currently, the three vehicles I've been considering are the following (30k usd budget)
2014 Audi q7 (19k usd, 63k Miles)
2018 BMW x535d (25k usd 69k miles)
2015 GLK 250 bluetech (19k usd, 72k miles)
All vehicles considered are getting a full tune and delete within 3 months of ownership and will have a full warranty for 30k miles
Of the three, my person preferences in order would be BMW-Audi-glk. Which vehicle will give me the least amount of grief for my use case? I fully understand the issues with each individual power train and associated repair costs, and I have already priced it into my monthly expenses. the goal is to keep the vehicle for as long as possible (200k miles+)
thank you for attending the ted talk, all opinions will be considered
