I summer on Cape Cod. The BMW is photographed at the Outermost Harbor Marina, in Chatham, and the 4runner is photo'd on Chapin's Beach in East Dennis. I love driving my 4Runner, but if i'd have to chose it would definitely be the BMW. Besides the beautiful interior quality, and involving driving experience, there is just something beautiful about the e90 3-series that appeals to me. Regardless, I really do love driving the 4R- it is a fun car... surprisingly with it's soft driving dynamics, numb effortless steering and very spongy handling- I enjoy the car very much. The 4R has great utility, i love the water resistant cloth seats, and it just seems like it will last forever. It is a lot more 'SUV' than the old Wrangler it was traded for. Excuse the Nordstrom/Bloomingdales bags. For as much as I spend on clothes, I clearly could not afford another suitcase, since I was transporting random things in those bags down to the cape. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle? :bigok:
