1994 Dodge Roadtrek van/motorhome (13 mpg. ). Was fun while it lasted (14 yrs.) but with the price of gas steadily climbing, we can stay in a nice hotel for the difference in fuel economy and not have to maintain it.
Fantastic car (and paid for) but my wife refuses to learn a stick and as she drives a M-B R350 it makes sense to have a runabout that we can both drive when she's not ferrying kids.
We're giving up my wife's 06 MINI Cooper CVT. It's been a great car, but we're planning on a baby so we wanted a little extra room. Good thing is, we upgraded to an S. That CVT is very slow when trying to get up to speed.
I gave up 11 motorcycles (vintage). Last year I had two people in SUV talking on cell phones pull out in front of me. The first wasn't too bad the other I was in the hospital but have healed well. So gave them up for a 07 MCS.

99 GMC Sonoma, Extended cab. Weak little 120 hp engine that only gets 20-21 mpg.
I find it interesting how many trucks are showing up in the thread. Everyone who hears I'm getting a Mini seems to think it's a strange jump. It's nice to see it's not just me making strange jumps. The clubman has more interior space than my truck, so I feel like I'm moving up to a bigger car despite the smaller overall size.
