Would you buy your DBX again?

Hi all, I am in love with the DBX, both the base and 707 trims. I have been driving a '14 Rapide S for a couple years and maybe 10k miles and think it's a fantastic car. The Rapide has been mostly problem free and I have been able to avoid our local dealer, who is a bit of distance away and who does not have the best reputation.

I'd love to get a used DBX to be more of a daily then the Rapide, since I take my dog to the office and she does not go in the Rapide. I am concerned, how3ever, about reliability and downtime. If I get a DBX with remaining warranty, I really don't want potentially long stays at the dealer. I don't have the bandwidth.

So DBX owners, would you do it again? Are the later cars (23, 24, 25) more reliable? Anything in particular to watch out for when buying one?

Thanks for any guidance you can provide, Steve

I should add that I've been shopping the Levante and Grecale in Trofeo trim. Need room for the dog Market prices for low mileage examples of either Maserati are great for what you get. My past experience with a Quattroporte GTS was a positive one, and I would expect decent reliability out a Maserati. But I am really drawn to the DBX, even though it would cost significantly more.

Must be a big dog if she won't fit in the Rapide. My dog goes in the Rapide all the time. Usually the front seat.
