If you're a mom, would you drive this luxury SUV?

We earn a good living but drive pretty modest cars bc we put our money elsewhere. I’m probably not your audience, but I’d never lease a $100k car of any kind, ever.

He does understand that he cannot claim this as a business expense if you use it to drive your kids to their sportsball practices and whatnot, right?

I am a mom and would not drive that unless it was free.

Sure. But a 2025 Rivian R1S with similar specs is 2x the lease payment.

You sure? There have been some good lease rates on Rivians lately (get a Rivian over this monstrosity)

I am 100% sure. We have cross shopped the two.

I would be so embarrassed to drive that, especially knowing it’s leased (I.e. it isn’t even a status car because you have to lease it to afford it).

What kind of vehicle do *you* want, OP? I find it odd you are so deferential to your husband’s preferences here when you have to drive it.

No. There are better SUV EVs.

Never. It's an embarrassment in every way.

Monster truck? Go for it.

Nobody obeys that part of the tax law.

If it didn't cost me anything.

Why? Isn't it electric? Isn't that what we're supposed to be doing to save the environment? Plus it's from an American company, I guess.

If he wants it that bad, he should get it. I hate when DH tries to tell me what car I should drive. He wants to control both cars, and I find it annoying.

I can’t believe there is a car I would divorce over, and yet here it is lol.

[Anonymous]

Lease for you? lol.

Get a Rivian.

Omg no no no. And I love my “luxury SUV”, as opposed to the types on here who chime in on threads like these to chastise you about it.

I could easily see this in like Loudoun County though in white, belonging to a white/grey/blue new-build “farmhouse” that looks like all the other new-build houses around it.

So yah no.
