I currently drive a pick-up with a little under 50,000 miles; a short bed with no extended cab. My wife drives an Explorer with 155,000 miles (runs great). It's difficult going shopping with the truck because everything has to sit on the passenger seat or in the bed. So I started out with the intention of trading it in and getting a Prius, but my wife didn't like it. However, she fell in love with the TCH. So we put a deposit on one and should arrive late next week or early the week after. It will be my car. I'm not being greedy. She loves the Explorer and only drives 3 miles each way to and from work. So we wouldn't get much advantage with her driving the TCH.

My drive to work is either suburban or interstate, depending on my route. I'll obviously save some money on gas, replacing 10,000 miles per year on a truck (23 mpg) with 10,000 on a TCH. Additionally, when there's more than 2 people we have to always take the Explorer (17 mpg). Now we'll take the TCH, saving even more money.

So what's my issue? I'm having second thoughts about getting rid of a vehicle with only 50,000 miles that runs fine. Also, we own a retail business (furniture store) and I like keeping the extra cash around just in case.

I realize this is a TCH board so I expect most answers to be "go for it". Just looking for some honest feedback.
