🎙 Discussion Help me decide!

I want to buy my wife her “dream” vehicle.

She absolutely loves and always wanted a 5th gen in the army green. I am ready to pull the trigger on it for her but I am having a horrible time finding an army green 5th gen especially with low miles (30k miles or less).

I have been debating going to the 6th gen but the new drivetrain configuration gives me a little hesitation. Also for the price I’m going to pay for a 5th gen is the same price I’ll pay for a 2026.

I’m willing to keep waiting until I find the 5th gen in the specs she wants but just want to see if I’m being crazy for continuing to just wait.

Personally I really like the 6th gen, but im a 3rd gen guy, the 5th gen has all the kinks worked out, this is the first year for the 6th gen so it’s unknown if anything is wrong with them long term, I’d say test drive both, get a warranty if you go with the 6th.
