Sell the CRV since you won't need it.

The VX stays in the driveway (or garage) as the Pride & Joy. It comes out for picnics, meet-n-greets, goin to church on Sunday ...

I have the VX insured for pleasure use only and only rack up 2-3K miles per year on it.

Now that sounds like a great idea. :)

I definitely agree that you should keep the VX, pampered and pristine, for future display, not as an investment. My '82 Mustang may not be worth a plugged nickle, but now that they are getting more scarce, it does turn more heads. It's also my backup driver if I ever needed to put the VX in the shop. Neither this Mustang nor my Cobra were ever intended to be "investments", and the Mustang has over 230,000 miles of hard duty to show for it. Some day I would like to restore it like I did my Cobra, but I don't have an extra garage stall. Keep the VX, but don't ignore it!

Nice advice. Cobrajet.
