I’ve spent the last couple of days, against doctor’s orders I suppose since I’m supposed to be taking it easy, visiting various car dealerships looking at cars.

Now, I’m currently driving a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander and I love it. It’s a great older vehicle that has just over 150,000km on it.

But, I’m thinking I might want to occasionally drive for Uber and/or Lyft and I’m thinking of getting a second vehicle that’ll just be for me, no dogs.

I started out with looking at Mitsubishi and their new Outlander. It’s got all the bells and whistles, they all do. Thus far, I’ve looked at Mitsubishi, a Nissan Rogue, a Honda Passport, a Toyota something or other (they had no 2026 in stock though so, no test drive) a Hyundai Pallisaire, a Jeep Wrangler (2 door) and finally, a Ford Bronco.

I decided not to check out GM, I’m not liking their lineup at all.

I’m now deciding between the Ford Bronco and the Hyundai Pallisaire.

The Hyundai is loaded. Moonroof, heated seats and steering wheel, everything one could want. It’s got a great panoramamic display, everything one could want. It would come in around 65k. The Ford Bronco is smaller, comes in a colour that I’m excited about (it’s a yellow/orange) and it sounds great. It’s slightly smaller, but right now it’s in the lead.

Do I need a second vehicle? Absolutely not, but, when has that ever stopped me?

I’ll get a large chunk of money in August so that’s when I’m looking for delivery of a new vehicle.

I’m sitting on it for now and the Ford salesman and Hyundai salesman are vying for my business.

Fun times, indeed.
