Updating the Family Car - The Cayenne and the Alts | Everyday Driver

The 2010 Porsche Cayenne has served family duty in Todd’s house for eight years, and it is time to find a replacement. There are lots of options, and lots of debate to find the new family SUV. The result has a few surprises but continues the story that’s come before. This is the first of a new long-term series and the adventures have already begun. Thanks for watching

Thanks for sharing your personal story(s). I always enjoy the updates. It makes the show feel like your checking in with an old friend vs consuming content.

[@MrJuly151995]

Agreed, informs people on how to make good choices based on what is truly needed and wants. Very nice choice for family vehicle, that you can still have fun in.

[@Kevinator1996]

add to that the style of music they chose and generally choose for different intros/outros and different transitions. It's really refreshing feeling connected with the guys more than just consuming content like so many other youtube channels which are awesome don't get me wrong. I just love the down to earth, friendly neighbor vibe I get from Paul and Todd sharing their personal stories and life events in relation to something we all love: cars. This video was a perfect example of that

[@garythecyclingnerd6219]

Maybe I’m just on a retro-future kick, but lots of buttons looks luxurious to me. It’s clean, shows you have a lot of functions, and just looks sick.

[@wtfchazpwnt]

I hear your name on the podcast a lot. Cool to see you on KZbin as well 👍

[@po.russki]

100%, but, when you hop into the car for the first time you feel absolutely hopelessly lost. You feel like a boomer using a computer. It's bad, but not a knock because as an owner you'll get used to it.

[@f1jones544]

I remember in the early 80s when my high school friend's dad got a second gen Prelude, which my friend drove as much as the dad did. That row of buttons along the dash was so nice and actuated vents with just a press. It was a whole different world of luxury to me after years of big, ugly knobs that were stiff to turn, and felt gravely and imprecise. I ended up with my own later gen Acuras and Preludes, and my current F30 3 series still has the same basic, simple push button layout. I don't want screens, or at least more than I have already. If I needed to replace the BMW, I'd probably do like Todd and just try to get a new, better version of what I have, and mainly just for the buttons and lack of screens in general.

[@Mabeylater293]

My old o blackberry has far more buttons than my iPhone and I can assure you the iPhone has FAR MORE features.

[@jerzy3144]

Yeah but also blank plastic switches dont really look luxurious

[@bassandtrebleclef]

Idea for your old Cayenne - turn it into the ultimate winter Transsyberia with orange decals, wheels and light bar! No need to repaint it! You live in the PERFECT climate for that conversion to work and to get your son very fired up to drive it.

[@lofthousehh]

This!

[@MatthewGaither]

Definitely do this! This first gen Transsyberia conversions are super cool.

[@keithjackson4985]

Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love that idea

[@jairozhu941]

Do it Todd!

[@jairozhu941]

We traded in our 2016 cayenne GTS and immediately regretted it. Going back to Cayenne (or panamera) once the warranty on the new car expires. These are just awesome vehicles.

[@mkei8973]

Hi, from Japan!! I always think you are a good husband and a good dad. You really put importance on how your wife feel for new family car. You really think things for her. Not only this time, you mention about your family in your films occasionally. I always can feel how much you love your family. I really love Everyday Driver because you and Paul are nice person. I think many other viewers feel so, too.

[@BradWilson1969]

I like that you mentioned "knowing it's history". That's why I kept my 2000 Subaru Legacy Wagon until last year. I was the original owner, so I knew every detail of it's history. Even though I had to have the engine rebuilt for thousands of dollars one time, which cost a lot more than the car was even worth after it was fixed, it still felt better spent than trying to get an unknown used car for around the same cost.

[@dr.mattpavlic305]

As someone still daily driving their 2002 Outback, I'm with you on this. I can't replace the 17 year history I have with the car, and I know my own maintenance was fastidious.

[@MrBlahblah1011]

My wife and currently own a 2012 Cayenne S hybrid premium package plus. We bought it at 120k miles for 20k it only had two owners and one was my father in law. We knew the history of the SUV so we felt comfortable purchasing with that mileage and it has been the best and one of the most reliable cars we have owned. It still had the Porsche CPO warranty for another year when we bought it. And we have put about 100k miles in the three years we have owned. We’ve really only had two surprise repairs so far a thermostat and vacuum lines and the check valve on the vacuum pump. The oil changes are so easy on these cars I do them myself but we have changed certain parts preemptively as to avoid surprise fixes down the road all in all in three it’s cost about 13k to maintain and fix, the most expensive being when we had to deal with the vacuum issues coming in at around 4500$ but got a entire new vacuum system and then fixed a lot of other things like coolent hoses that showed signs of age had slight cracking. And we had a button for window control break so we bought a new door console for it. We have coil overs instead of airbags so never worried there. All in all nothing else drives like it. Thought about trying Mercedes or Maserati but the Cayenne is just over all amazing drive. And not to much gone wrong at high mileage and still get 28mpg combined or 32-36mpg on highway depending on if it’s mountains or open road

[@JakeDrives1]

I'm so glad you went with another Cayenne. Beautiful spec! Hope it serves you well.

[@jeffreyspencer4005]

Nothing wrong with owning 2 black Cayennes!! Great story and solid purchase!

[@qikqbn77]

I also upgraded from a 955 Cayenne S that we owned for 10 years and went to a 958 Cayenne S. Went from 16 mpg avg in the 955 to now we see 22-24 mpg with the new DFI engine in the 958. I also could not see myself in anything else other than a Porsche. In the SUV world, I love how they handle and feel rock solid. Great choice and congrats!

[@joeoublic]

Did the same thing... upgraded from a 1st gen Cayenne S to a 958 GTS. Loved it so much, ended up adding a 958 Diesel for the wife. Incredible machines... timeless... performance 2nd to none... utility - long road trips w 3 kids in the back, dog in trunk, and thule topper on top. Great choice, best of luck!

[@justinmaccreery2490]

Congratulations on the new E-Hybrid Cayenne! And thanks for another great video! Cheers from Charlotte, NC

[@scoobers90]

Congratulations on the new ride, Todd! Paul had to be elated that you stuck with Porsche.

I love this channel and all the car info. This is also beautifully produced. Used to have to DVR the shows for a couple years until I found the KZbin channel. Love it!! Thank you!!

[@EverydayDriver]

Very glad to have you watching. Thank you!

[@FreshdriveGeoff]

I bought a 957 2008 Cayenne GTS July of '21 and it has been my daily driver ever since. It's a great vehicle but I have put alot into maintenance and mods😅. Funny thing is my wife also loves it and wants her own, a 958. We are looking at either the EHybrid like you or the diesel. Let everyone know how it goes after a year, very curious 😂.

[@thomasfarias3146]

Congrats!!! I think it’s an awesome choice and wish you the best of luck with it!!

[@clearcut6818]

I recently bought the exact same car myself, only in Carrera White exterior. Absolutely love it. Looks great, drives great, and playing with the different electric modes is fun in itself.

[@andreasbeaufort3594]

"I am the guy with two black Porsche Cayennes." Come on... If it's so great, then relax and enjoy it! I wouldn't mind at all if I was the guy with two blue Honda Accord Wagons. And the best part: BUTTONS! I love buttons! Screens are cute, but complicated, distracting, and unpractical. Buttons are simple and they just do the job - which is what you want when you're driving. Thanks for another excellent video!

[@L0rdVadr]

Well done good sir. I really knew this would happen. For how good the old one was and something that fits your needs and price point, I kinda saw this coming a mile away. Again, good choice and enjoy. 🎉🙌🏼🙌🏼.

[@BrockZagel]

Thanks for sharing all that wisdom and helpful information.

[@joetacchino4470]

My wife drove a 958 Cayenne for nearly 10 years. She loved it. Too bad you didn’t go for the diesel like we had, but TBH, the E Hybrid is great and you do get the updated PCM. We replaced her Cayenne with….another Cayenne. Lol. ‘23 E Hybrid. Loving it so far. Like you, we haven’t gotten rid of our old one. The ONLY reason I am considering getting rid of it is because if we do keep it, my son will be driving it. And that’s just not right for a 16 year old with a fresh license. Lol. Enjoy yours! The 958 is fantastic to drive!

[@AnontheGOAT]

Wow you guys still have this thing! Haven’t watched the channel for a little while so I’m very surprised to see it!

[@Mushroomancer]

Congrats on the upgrade for the family. I recognize those conti DWS, they are excellent tires.

[@autoterrainng5052]

The Cayenne has been vehicle we are looking forward to owning and to make a proper review on and you have summed it all up here.

[@Nissannx2000svg]

Kudos to you! I own a 14 GTS and absolutely love it! It has the same air suspension and ( Knock on wood ) I’ve never had any issues with it. The only thing to watch out for are plastic bits to break ( Air vent controls, window switches and lock and unlock switches ) which are all priced pretty reasonably online and easy to replace.

[@DamienShyne]

This was very very helpful thank youuu

[@dbeckMSP]

please do a comparison with the smallest/narrowest wheels that'll fit! that'd be great consumer advice. 295 is insane for a hybrid family car

[@motorconcierge]

Congratulations on the new car, great choice and I can relate to the story about tyre prices. Crazy.

[@gwgillespie3185]

I purchased the 2018 Hybrid and love it. Running 275X45 Good Year Eagles LS2 on 20" wheels, very happy with it.

[@slighwentwalking2024]

I think thats a good find. I found a 2008 FX45 about 2 years ago. It is the best performing car/truck that I have owned. I have all modern safety systems...lane keep ast and adaptive cruise. There are great cars out there...my car sold for 60K new...got mine for 9 100K miles on it with dealer service records...I'm happy. Hope you and your family enjoy your new wheels.

[@JohnnyFD]

I’m glad you’re keeping the old Cayenne. I have an 08’ Cayenne GTS and love it. It has a lot of the features of your new eHybrid.

[@FeistyPineapple]

This is the video I have been waiting for, so happy your wife got to have an upgrade :)!

[@HandsomeAlex25]

You got a screaming deal on this, but, as always, you're completely aware of the risks of the newer technology. It's actually the most obvious upgrade. Nicely done.

[@scottdurrell6772]

[@keithjackson4985]

Good for you guys. I'm not even a Cayenne fan, but I like that one.

[@B4u81I812]

Congratulations!!! You have been hinting for months that your MOF wanted a new staff car. We have all been waiting on the edge of our seats, wondering what you would get. Great and very “Brave” choice. From basic stripped model to loaded one. I’m nervous, but I look forward to your experiences. Please ask your wife to make a video talking to my MOF so I can get one to! Cheers!

[@donhoover9900]

Love the new purchase. I was thinking of getting one, but my MOF has to have the new tech and a place for her phone. We got a brand new 2023 Macan S but I love the idea of a few year old E-Hyrbrid Cayenne. Hopefully the car will give you as many fun times and great trips as the old Cayenne.

[@natewagner3165]

Great buy Todd I went a similar route of sorts I went from a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 Double Cab 2-wheel drive LT with most of the high-tech and luxury features that were big in 2015 to a 2018 Grand Cherokee Summit with all of the high-tech and luxury features and better fuel mileage

[@Affalterbach1967]

Early Cayennes were solid for crawling last half mile overland to campsite, hiking/skiing trail head.

[@billtaylor8655]

Congratulations! I hope you and your wife are happy with it.

[@r3d-1truth17]

I would first like to thank you and your team for providing some of the most unbiased and knowledge-fulfilling information to the viewer as there can be! I like listening to the insight, bright and colorful humor, and deep librarian-ist conversations. Can I ask for you and your co-host to bring a discussion of how you see the change over to electric-powered vehicles will change the landscape of the "family trip"? I have watched many of your channel's videos on cross-country treks, and that is something I do with my family on an annual basis. And it brings an uneasy feeling that as we transition to electric vehicles, the idea of being able to travel to remote locations and thru all climates... will become the next dinosaur of the past. With shorter ranges, less available grid networks, and frankly- not being able to safely get away from the beaten path to venture into the unknown, without fear of the vehicle dying and leaving us stranded. Or, using our precious battery life to keep warm in the middle of night, while we sleep under the stars, will be a balance of frostbite or driving home. You can imaging the many scenarios that this dilemma can raise an eye brow. Thanks again - enjoy the journeys and I look forward to the new adventures on the way! Cheers

[@trevormacdougall9385]

Great video, Todd. I've had a 2009 Cayenne S for about four years and honestly can't find anything I like better. Hate all the screens in new cars and won't buy new. I may end up going down this exact path!🙂

[@ryanv2641]

Great video!

[@ChristopherNye-th6fm]

It's going to be ok Todd...Nice choice! And always good to keep the wife happy (she has good taste as well)!

[@Drumheros]

Your original Cayenne series inspired me to purchase my 2012 Cayenne S 2 years ago. We've had her for 2 years and 30k km, and it's been a dream to drive with no big issues. We were lucky to buy an example that had the transfer case replaced direct from Porsche at the beginning of our ownership, but I'm curious to see your experience with that. I hear the hybrid/diesel doesn't have the transfer case issues that the normal models do. They really are great cars with engineering magic to make it drive like it does.

[@abrahamandsarahbook]

I’ve been looking forward to this Cayenne “installment”. You gave me the confidence to buy a 2020 base last weekend! Got rid of a wrangler I’d owned for 10 years and 100k. Moving from jeep to Porsche is like moving from Piper cub to F-18. I’d prefer fewer bells and whistles, but they are fun to have as long as they are working well. Specifically chose a base over platinum to avoid a few more potential issues and to have 19” wheels. Having minimal sidewall on a truck that may see some rougher roads just makes zero sense. At least you have a spare! Audi removes them leaving the owner with the need for cell phone, Towing membership and prayer. Well done review. Thank you.

[@rickmeyer1872]

I’m on my second Cayenne Diesel. Fantastic vehicles that do everything.

[@Trendyflute]

She likes what she likes! The hybrid aspect really makes the Cayenne a much saner everyday proposition.

[@NotThatSlow]

There are some advantages to owning cars from the same brand. I own 3 cars from a single brand and have owned plenty of them previously. I've always been treated well at every dealership for this brand, built good relationships with parts people, and have been very pleased with how these cars drive and handle family and racecar duties. Sometimes, you just shouldn't change what you enjoy and is working well to begin with.

Can't go wrong with a Porsche, but it's hard to go back to anything else. I have the aluminum wheel also, looks so nice. I have 25k on my Macan and im talking to my dealership now on getting a new one. Thing is, they're so freaking expensive, but like they say, There's no substitute!..Congratulations!!!

[@morganvon5664]

Great choice. The tech is very up to date. And it rides really well. The market has really come down on used Cayenne's. I wish it was true on 992 911's!

[@computercrack]

Very good choice, that thing is very solid and reliable. Also love the design of this generation, it's much much better then the 1.gen. Youll be happy with this for a long time! Cayenne are like a Swiss army knife. You can do basically anything you want. Pretty hard offloading (with the right tires), daily communiting, driving very sporty at the push of a button. For me if there is only one car to have, it would be a Cayenne.

[@kirkwagner461]

You used the phrase "Keep the old Cayenne for a Winter beater." You're in deep, man. :D

[@zsolabola]

Watching your video: get the Rennline Magnetic mount. Mounts the phone up next to the PCM, looks great. You can get a magnetic wireless charger for it if yo7 have a compatible phone. Also, check out the storage hidden on the front of the seats! Consider selling those wheels and getting the 20’s. The tires are much more reasonable and blowout proof.

[@freedomvan2970]

Advice for thee but not for me... Just kidding Todd. Great video as always. Looking forward to hearing more in the podcast in the coming year.

[@fredthebaker8881]

Really enjoyed the video update - hilarious but I am not surprised it's a newer cayenne. Two choices: keep the old cayenne as the winter car and for your son down the road. That actually may make the most financial sense ... or sell it and get a Jeep Wrangler for your winter car / son's first car and your wife would be happy with that too.

Damn, your old Cayenne and my 1989 928 S4 get about the same MPG and I beat that thing mercilessly. Good to hear that that newer generation seems to be holding up alright. Just be sure to use that corporate parts sharing to your advantage and source as much as you can from VW/Audi instead of Porsche when you need to fix it. You'll save a bunch of money!

[@connorbasile]

LOVE IT. Great choice. The Cayenne has, is, and always will be a great vehicle. And I’m a firm believer that if you own a car you like, and it has suited you well, upgrading to the newer version instead of switching to something totally different is always a good idea. (Plus I’ve always had Jeeps and German cars, so clearly I’m a fan of “evolutionary” car design, and I’m not into the “revolutionary” redesign other brands do to their cars every few years- that feels cheap.) Black is also my fav color choice so yet again, your choice is right up my alley lol.

[@tommy516]

Late last year I picked up my 2023 Audi Q5 55 TFSI e and love it. At least 5 days a week I drive in EV only mode. Agree PHEV isn't for everyone, but the higher MPG is nice.

[@VanjaPejovic]

Would love to know if you considered the panamera cross turismo and why you ruled it out.

The old story.... Todd's wife wants the SUV ride height. She likes the Panamera, but wants the higher/larger feel of the Cayenne. Thanks for watching!

[@80a7x]

[@davidraezer5937]

The Cayennes continue to be a good deal if you can afford the fuel to run them and do the mechanical work yourself. I had a black and tan Cayenne TT and loved it. Reliability wasn’t bad and I averaged 15mpg. Her name was Miss Piggy.

[@86monte98ponti]

I'm excited you have a new family car that Kate loves. However, I hope the coming months and years don't sour your love and enjoyment of it. I had 4 of these Hybrid Cayennes in my fleet as a Fleet Manager at my last job, and all 4 of them were basket cases. Each one of them had fewer miles than the one you purchased, and each one their hybrid systems failed multiple times, bricking the vehicle. Each one also consumed oil like it was candy. For the fleet I managed, they were not great. Hopefull, your experience is vastly better than mine.

[@russellrubinacci5028]

Congratulations

[@michaelw4930]

I did the same car sin as well - I went from a 2010 370z sport to a 2017 370z Nismo. In the end - it was one of the best 'all around sports cars' to me and provided enough differences in the cosmetic as well as having the recaros to make it worth it. But yeah, I do recommend the same thing - never go with the same car as you had before bc you'll regret it.

[@RockstarBruski]

@everydaydriver Todd, great helpful review on used Cayennes! I like all your details, prices and comparisons to each of the cayennes. Coincidentally three years ago from yours and Paul's recommendation that you liked Volvos I bought a 2010 Volvo xc60 v6 engine white with tan interior 160k miles for $10k for my wife and she loved driving it. Then my 18 year old daughter needed a car so she now drives that 2010 volvo and loves driving it. Then in October 2022 I found a 2017 Volvo xc90 white with tan interior with 77k miles for $25k. It has all the new tech, dynamic ride like the Porsche but not a hybrid but still gets 25mpg since it's a 4cyl, turbo, with a supercharger. My wife loves driving this newer model. Plus the 2017 xc90 has 3 rows of seats and much more space than the 2010 xc60. It seems that I did the same thing as you except my cars are the light side and yours are the dark side. In my Yoda voice...Consider this you must my young padawan? hmmm? 😅 let'sdrag race your 2017 Cayenne VS my 2017 Volvo xc90. 😉 Seriously though you might want to have your son drive the 2010 Cayenne when he turns 16. Safe and yet it's a Porsche.

Cool to hear this. Thanks for sharing and watching as always!

I've been very Cayenne curious. We're growing out of my wife's rouge as a family so these and X5's have been on my radar as a replacement for something that can do the family stuff but is reasonably enjoyable to drive. Will be very interested to see how the reliability of the E-Hybrid plays out in the future!

As for storage on this Porsche one can Get aftermarket pockets that fit next to the center consul hand rails, good for the phone and glasses for me. As for mileage a used diesel has less maintenance for sure and I've gone 770 miles on a single tank of fuel on mine. Driven from San Francisco to Phoenix none stop. To bad people also don't know that the diesel today is as clean or cleaner than gas. Wish Porsche was still making the diesel. As he is in Park city with snow the 18/19 inch tire would be better.

This was my favourite review from this channel so far. Honest. I’d say you’re only option is to get a third black Cayenne.

[@ashp5406]

how much was maintenance for old one total/yearly. and how much you are expecting for new one...

[@tnutss]

I knew the second gen Cayenne would be perfect for you guys. But I think you could have gotten the diesel instead. We get 29mpg and handles great

[@ScramblinJim]

This would be the car to replace my 2015 Cayenne Diesel should it get totaled out. Open road mpg on our diesel going through Wyoming at 85 mph yielded 31mpg for our 3k trip. Very comfortable touring car. I’ve since turned it into an overlander with off road tires and a 2” lift. So nice to go places where my buddies with Wranglers go! We have a Boxster and a Macan with the same center console button layout and also really like having buttons; nice going between cars and having the same instrumentation layout. Great video.

[@vasantos-re4hb]

A terrific choice for the family. There really aren't many alternatives once you've owned a Cayenne. Maybe you can try a Land Cruiser next time around?

[@DoWorkExotics]

Love our 958 Cayenne. Best generation in my opinion.

9:08 the brakes don't offer any regen, it's the electric motor producing drag. It would be accurate to say that the motor is braking, but not that the brakes are regening.
