Now, I'd love to get something new or a toy to play with but ain't gonna happen as there's nothing out there I just have to have, NOW! The Golf was such a vehicle for me. After the first drive, I knew I'd buy one...eventually. It's kind of fun to talk about it and deciding on a short list, but to actually do it, takes research and time.
Saw a new 2019 Acura ILX yesterday in a charcoal metallic and it looked great. Am starting to like the new model to be honest but would need the one with Sirius/XM on it, the old Tech Package would work. Also passed a charcoal Hyundai Kona and liked having the hatch. I use a hatch every so often, bought a book storage unit on Wednesday on OfferUp and once I put the back seats down, it fit the piece of furniture easily. Needed it for some closet storage so I can fold my short sleeve shirts to free up hanging space and it fits my shoes nicely also. Just having the ability to throw it in the car and take it home without asking my buddy with the Silverado was priceless to me. Nice to have the ability to do this on such short notice as it was just perfect for our needs the minute I saw it. And it was a moving sale so I had 1 more day to pick it up or forfeit the sale.
The Kona is a similar size so that would work. VW keeps sending me letters about trading in for a new 2019 unit but all they have right now is a black over black SE which is just the wrong color. And getting another Golf is something I'm just not sure about. The Encore is a screaming value right now with all the rebates and something I wouldn't mind owning. Ditto the Cruze hatch, I like the pumpkin color for some crazy reason!

I am generally opposed to an SUV for me but the Kona is kind of cool and has a nice powertrain
My evil plan may be to get a smaller SUV for $300 or so a month and hope the wife falls in love with it... then in 2020 when the Enclave goes back get a really nice sedan with the bigger car payment budget.

Also saw a few more ILX's on the road and starting to like it to. Got over getting the 2018 model as might as well get brand new if I decide to go Acura. Seems like the few folks who bought TLX's seem to absolutely love them. Word of mouth can be a very powerful tool. The few Acura store's just are not close but can deal with that if necessary. Especially if I'm retired at the future time, no clock to punch so going there wouldn't be an issue.

Turns out the kid is driving down on Thursday at this point, throw out Plan A and substitute Plan B. Kinda makes sense and will be cheaper than the train so guess she wants her new car here even though told her she could use mine when I'm not at work or even use the Audi if need be. But thinking the 3 day trip has morphed into at least a week trip now, being a remote worker, she can be virtually anywhere there's a wifi connection. And since her fiance ain't moving up there until the 26th of this month, might as well spend some of the time down here. We both have that app now where we get an email 6 days a week around 8:50 or so telling us what pieces of mail we'll be getting in our mailbox that day. It's handy to have.
Since the new Cruze will be here, will finally get a chance to drive it. Since it's new, wanted to wait till she's comfortable enough with us driving it. By Thursday afternoon, it'll be time enough where she can open the windows after the tint was done. The guy said 48 hours to keep them shut but we decided on a week time frame just because. It sits in her garage all day every week day until she gets off at 5 or so, so it's now had plenty of time to cure.
I know she's excited for him to move up finally as being alone is nice for maybe a week or two, but after that, can get a bit lonely. His job also is one where he works remotely from home so they're a perfect fit. She'll have the dedicated office and he'll take one of the back bedrooms and things should work out fine. He's already told her that he won't park his Camaro in the garage which is fine with her. But, it could fit if need be. It's configured differently than ours with only a sink tucked away in front on the right side where he'd park. It was a screw up on their part as it was supposed to be in the laundry/mud room area but someone goofed. They were ready to fix it but she decided to let it stay where it was as there would've been a lot of work needed to be done to correct it. Instead, they agreed to install the 5 fans I bought as a gift and the Ring door bell her sister got her for free and gave her a gift certificate to the Disney parks as her way was so much easier for everyone. Just made sense and she got her electrical stuff done on their dime. I must say, the fans she choose at Home Depot are very very nice and was happy to do it. All in, spent a good chunk of change while I was there but she was so appreciative of it all and is a wonderful child that I didn't care. Kind of what my in-laws did for us back in the day. History just repeating itself!

All very doable but just easier if we live somewhat close to her since it's not fair to intrude too much on their lives. Again, we'll work things out way in advance but it's all going to be very doable with cooperation! And will be exciting also to finally do the things we're talking about now!

I'm in the same boat, or somewhere nearby. I was retired for a few years, and went back to work, and I am happier working than not working. I'm the type of person who needs feedback, other people seeing what I do and appreciating it. When I was retired before, I did volunteer work, mostly at an animal shelter which was very good for the soul.
But I am not in any way outstanding when it comes to working with animals, rather average really. And I am gifted at working with computers, and my ego really likes it when people say things like, "How did you do that? I didn't think that was possible."
So I'm still at it, although the 40 hour grind is getting old. I'm thinking of trying to negotiate a shorter work week when my contract comes up for renewal. And I will admit that I like having the extra cash, allows me to remain a member of CCBA!
I really wish they had sent me this BEFORE I purchased my present F150, about 8 months ago.

Almost no options, but wow, does it have a lot of stuff standard.
He borrowed $10K on it, to qualify for a bigger rebate.
$40,040 MSRP
$32500 selling price, after discounts and rebates. (plus tax, etc).
That's a lot of car for $32,500.

Also, the standard Q5 is spec'd at 5.9 seconds 0-60. The SQ5's 5.1 second 0-60 time seems like a fairly mild upgrade.
I was comparing it to my wife's X3 which is pretty loaded.
But, a lot of her stuff was optional, including the safety nannies
Edge missing in comparison:
Moonroof
AWD
Rear heated seats (not offered, I don't think)
And, you can get a bigger engine, just like in her BMW.
But, that's it, I think. Impressive amount of equipment, and attractive. His is dark gray with black leather.
This was his first new car... ever. (68 yrs old) His current ride was the Camry he bought new for his wife in 1994. 275K miles. He said the transmission was starting to slip. They gave him $500 for it, which I told him was a gift. Of course, his wife has had five new cars since 1994.

All their vehicles with the 2.0T (save maybe for the Q7) are plenty quick. I’m thoroughly impressed with her A5 when I drive it. The V6 in the SQ5 (and S4 and S5) certainly has a different character though. Plus the seats, steering wheel and other trim upgrades are nice.

BMW has raised the 2018 X1 residuals to match the rest of the SUV fleet, for March.
So, if you are looking to do an X1 service loaner lease, now might be the time, if there are any left.
