I am tending to agree. There's a wagon in Charleston for about the same $$ as the X3, plus it has sport suspension. But I'm not sure about logistics these days and I wouldn't want to buy without a test drive.

The price on this 2017 X5 keeps dropping, too. But it's still a chunk more change: https://www.unitedbmw.com/inventory/...kr6c37h0u13020

And then there's this new Golf Alltrack, that probably could be had for $25k: https://www.stonemountainvw.com/inve...m17au6km522993
I really watned the wagon when we got our x3 as well. My wife pushed for the X3 and honestly i'm glad I did. After several test drives, i realized that I didn't like the F30's vague on center steering and found the seats less comfortable. Plus, the inline 6 is just so much nicer than the 4. That's something you'll enjoy every day. The wagon looks way cooler and has a slightly better built interior but dont let that sway you too much.
