Excursion as only vehicle
Hey 96brco,
Guess I fall into your category now. My family has two Excursions and they are our primary, secondary and only vehicles!!
Our family consists of my wife and I and two full grown kids. We enjoy travelling and are usually on the road every chance we get in the summertime.
The Excursion is the perfect vehicle for us. The interior roominess makes our family drives a pleasure and the four wheel drive let's us go wherever we want.
We tried many other vehicles and found the Ex to be our best option.
I use my Excursion to travel back and forth to work (I work 75 miles away from home and am gone for three day stretches) and I love the room...I can carry all that I need for my work with room for arctic gear and other necessities to boot.

I have a PSD X and think it is an extremely reliable and economical vehicle for those of us with some mechanical ability. I can't see going to one vehicle - just from a total vehicle availability point of view. If you have one vehicle and it has a problem you are down to Zero vehicles! It might work if you have a neighbor whom you can depend on to support your transportation habit when you're getting new tires on the X or finally getting that dent fixed. I prefer an X and one beater vehicle which is presently a 1992 Honda Civic.

Yeah, then you can throw the Civic on top when you need to take the X into the shop 
That's what X - Mini Cooper owners do!
Or even inside! ... "The BMW-built Mini may not be as "mini" as its legendary predecessor which sold worldwide, and briefly in the U.S., for 41 years. But you could almost tuck the new one inside a Ford Excursion and have room left over for groceries..."
