The salt will cause it to rust reducing my investment.
I would only need storage insurance on the XF and liability only on the Bronco putting me money ahead.
It sounds like a win win win situation.
Doesn't it?.
I recently had the same delima, a new SRT Xfire or an Old Bronco. But it was a Bronco packaging machine for my company. The boss chose the machine.
Which is fine but it doesn't do any better in the snow than a crossfire.
While I agree with your reasonings, not driving my Crossfire sounds so depressing. Until I got the little roadster, I loved driving my pickup to work. Now it's a chore.
