Ultimate Ski-mobile?

So I know only 10% of NS is old enough to drive (ZING!) but, in your opinion, what is the ultimate ski-bum car? Keeping in mind a few key factors:

1) Snow performance
2) Ski haul-ability
3) Internal sleeping space (for when you light your matress on fire after coughing through the bong)
4) Pimpability
And any other factors I forgot

I'd say the BMW 325iX (old school e30) is a wise choice, but if you're a true bum, you need the luxorious sleeping space of the 1990 Subaru GL 4x4 Wagon. Then theres the Diesel Toyota Hilux/4runner.

So, what's your favorite steez-friendly ride?

true true...my landrover wins because we had to drive it with skis through the sunroof in the cold once. and because itll run over like a wicked big dog and probably a moose, like if they were hanging out together or something.

upgrade their air filters, intake and exhaust and it'll upgrade not only their fuel economy by a few mpg but also the horsies.
