[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would wait to have the kid(s) first. You don’t know if you will need fertility help. You don’t know if your wife won’t want to go back to work. Kids are expensive. You may want to move to a different neighborhood. I would not splurge on the car first.

DH is a car person and has a Range Rover and a Porsche. He didn’t get the Porsche until kid 2 was 2yo.[/quote]

I drive a Range Rover and I agree with this. Don’t lock yourself into a lifestyle that requires both of you to work until after you have kids. I never thought I’d stay home with my kid, but I did end up going part time. I’m very glad I had the flexibility to do that, and I was really lucky to land in a job that made it work.  I also know people who worked with one kid and changed their minds about working after number 2 was born. Agree that you also may feel differently about where you live. Id feel differently if you were set for retirement and could spare the cash, but that doesn’t seem to be your situation.

FWIW, I haven’t had any issues with my Range Rover with re: to reliability (knock on wood).  My DH has an a vintage Land Rover, and that is another story….[/quote]
