Well, what can I say. After putting up a pool to which many of my readers responded, some with detailed critiques of the cars in question, I wandered off and got something completely different. I have my reasons, however. One of the aspects of owning my Land Rover which I took for granted at the time was that I always had enough room to store the computers and junk I have to carry around in connection with my business. Furthermore, I never had to worry much about winter weather.
The car I needed, then, would be both roomy and safe in the winter. Also, it couldn't swallow gasoline the way the Discovery did - I felt like I was actively poisoning the environment every time I drove the Disco. Also, it should be safe, to help placate Mrs. Boswell. I was all ready to order a Subaru Legacy 2.5GT wagon, but then I came across a fantastic three-year Saab lease, and the results are below....
As for the Audi loyalists out there... Mrs. Boswell has a mind of her own, and instead of getting the Passat 4Motion I recommended for her, I think she will be ordering a 2.7T A6 around December. No, it won't be black (I don't have any influence on her at all), and no, I won't be allowed to go tearing around I-270 in it.
Thanks again to everyone who voted. I'll see you on the road... and on the track, ha ha...
