Here's the deal:

I need to get rid of one car. I'm a single parent with one child and I own a 1998 Boxster, 2005 Toyota Sienna and 2013 VW Passat TDI (diesel).

The new VW Passat is a daily commuter car, which gets nearly 50 mpg.
The Toyota Sienna is my hauler for large cargo (e.g., home depot runs, etc.)
The Boxster is my social life toy.

The least practical is obviously the Boxster, but my heart wants to keep it even if I miss being able to haul tons of crap in the damn minivan.

Anyone with similar dilemmas in the past?
