It’s just an upgraded Honda CRV.
You must be thinking about RDX not MDX. Also latest RDX is not built on the same platform as CRV
You're correct that it's not based on the CRV; it's based on the Pilot. So I should have said, "It’s just an upgraded Honda Pilot."
BMW should certainly be on that list considering European owners. Countless numbers of E46 and E39 models remain on the road here.
It says percentage of original owners. Luxury owners tend to lease more and upgrade more. I don’t know anyone that isn’t at least the 2nd owner of an E46 or E39.

Take a look ynder the hood and you start to see the full picture. Older cars were heavy and inefficient. Newer cars have far more complexity and a lot more plastics. On the plus side they have some great traction features and are far safer to get in an accident with (in general).
My Ford has 4WD, and is satisfactory in the snow. The safety in a collision is an issue, likely the only one for me. The Ford is cheap to operate, and very cheap to repair compared with newer models.
