After two tour of duties with a 2012 XLT 5.0 and, a 2014 XLT 5.0, I may be departing and going to a sedan. Test drove a VW Passat yesterday and was impressed at the styling and the handling and option package. I'm pretty much just using my truck to go to work and run errands. I can do this in a sedan. I towed a few times but I have a 10 year old GMC Sierra if a truck is required. Last sedan I owned was my 1991 Buick Century, which was a great car, only got rid of it as I wanted a SUV Explorer type vehicle. And drove noting but SUV's and trucks after that.

Do it. I own a 4Runner I no longer use for the reasons I bought it for. I'm picking up a Fusion on Wednesday.

Ill never own another VW. Our Jetta had numerous issues that vw wouldnt fix.

Hey you need to choose the right vehicle for your mission. Good luck with the change...

But I have to ask what the reasons are for the change. MPG? If you're taking a $2000 hit on trading the truck and buying a new vehicle, it will take a long time to make up the difference in fuel on the short trip work/errand scenario you mentioned.

If you already have a truck, why have 2? If I didn't have a boat or need 4x4 for winter by me, I'd have a sedan.

I could never imagine myself in a sedan... :shudders: But to each his own!

My wife has a 14 passat TDI and I make excuses to drive it every chance I get. Not sure if your looking at the gas or diesel but if your thinking the diesel I would hold off. VW has a big scandal going on right now with a cheat device on them.
