Me and my wife and son are going to be moving into our new house verrry soon. As me and my wife discussed before getting the house, that one of our vehicles had to go. I told her im not getting rid of mine, due to the miles for work and that she had to choose between keeping her BMW or our Yukon Denali. The conclusion is that after we move into the house and get settled, we are turning in her BMW and selling our Denali and getting her a new Tahoe. So then we will only have two vehicles, my BMW and the new Tahoe. We should be in the new house and settled by mid-April, and we agreed to keep her car until late May. The only thing is im not sure whether to turn in her BMW or mine??!

I have a 528i Sedan and she now has a 335i convertible. I could handle the convertible everyday, simply cause i usually just drive the bmw to work and home and errands. The catch is that if im turning in a car with the BMW car-leasing program, it has to be the car with the most miles! And i know her convertible wont have that many miles by May.


Soo What to Keep the 528i Sedan or 335i Convertible or the 2005 denali? What you think.
The denali isnt hurt at all, only 10,000 miles.


Pics attached of ALL our cars and our new soon to be house!

since youre getting a tahoe, get rid of the denali. between the bimmers, the e60 is the more convenient especially with your son, but the 335 is the fun car, and youll have an SUV anyway. for me i would keep the 5 series over the 3er. just my opinion.

I agree with nerweezy. I think the 5 is more family friendly than the 3. You've got the SUV. The mid-size/sport sedan just seems to be the more logical choice. IMHO. Congrats on the new home and good luck with the move.

Denali is a Piece of poop. do you have to consider? Just look at it again... If you had to get rid of two and get a Tahoe... I would say get rid of the 528 and the denali, keep the 335 and get a new Tahoe.

The 335 is so much more fun. The power is just amazing... If you need to hull stuff you got the Tahoe.

I would be interested in how the real estate market is in your neck of the woods. The 335's seats are hot!!
