'06 E55, '05 SLK55, a few others
The E55 for sure. However, part of that decision is based on the fact that mine is a POS. If it were problem free, the decision would be a lot tougher. The Yukon still gets the nod due to it's ability to haul things you'd never put in the 55 (including baby puke), and the fact that it's a 4X4. An E55 is a great daily driver, but isn't much of a tow vehicle or off roader.

First off congratulations!! Second, why do you have to sell the car? I'm always confused that people think they need to run out and buy an SUV when they have a kid. I can see if you had a couple of kids. There's probably as much room in your 55 as there is in many SUV's. Especially with a newborn - they're not their big LOL. You'll also be able to fit all the baby crap in the trunk. My sister in law has twins and has a Caddy STS. As soon as she got pregnant, right away she had to have the biggest, most expensive SUV she could find (but that's just the way she is). She still has the Caddy 3 years later and has no problems transporting the kids and their stuff.
congrats again!

You don't need an SUV until you have 3 kids.

all you needed were these:
My son absolutely loved riding in the P-car. It wasn't until my daughter was born did I decide to get rid of it...well, it took me a year after she was born to finally let it go. Once I got the beast, it rarely got driven, plus, it was more or less in storage for the entire winter.
E55 Rocket, keep the car! I can fit two back there w/o a problem!
