I know the feeling... In my case, both my wife and I are doing it, and replacing two BMWs every 3 years adds up to serious money, and it feels like a huge waste quite frankly.

I'm trying to figure out the answer myself. I'm thinking that we will lease gasoline BMWs one more time, and then buy electric cars. Those should be more reliable and easier to fix, and hopefully there will be some nice ones by then. I'm not a fan of the Teslas for various reasons (mostly the interior, poor controls, and lack of features).
