I used to always think about getting a WRX wagon for a practical car. But now I think when I get a practical "car" it's going to be a truck, since I want towing capability.

I always have tried to have a SUV for towing or just piling a bunch of crud into. I def dont get near enough use out of it in that aspect. About all the hauling my Exploder sees is hauling my trash to the end of the driveway Sunday night. I just wanna be able to all year long. Its too depressing taking my Z off the road in the winter and driving the Ford. Its like punishment and I didnt even do anything wrong.

Yeah I definitely see the benefit to having a fun car to drive year round.
