Edited to add - thanks for pointing out typos and quick formatting, or the irony of going from a Versa to a Bronco, but wants & need and family circumstances do change sometimes - that wasn't really my main point here. Just wondering do you make spreadsheets for comparison purposes & vehicle purchases? I've always done this, going back many years, and was just curious if I'm just being a nut. Seems like maybe I am ?β

Am I the only one who does this level of planning for vehicle purchases?
Usually there is a comparison chart between 15 or so vehicles, comparing 5 and 10 year costs of ownership, but when I saw the Bronco I knew it was the only one I would consider this time around. And I also know (or at least most fervently hope) that this is a vehicle I can keep and love for a lot more than 5-10 years anyway, so those charts became meaningless.
Next is the budget/savings plan. For example, here's how I plan to get into my 4-door Black Diamond with just a few key options. And to justify the purchase, I've categorized it as an early midlife crisis
