The feeling ebbs and flows for me. I get tired of having to work on a car (I should bleed the brakes, I should change the fan belt, I should replace the spark plugs, I should change the transmission oil, I should... the list goes on), I get tired of waking up at 6am every Saturday and Sunday to go to cars and coffee events, I become mentally drained from driving a car with no airbags and hardly any safety devices beyond seatbelts (driving a 911 is fun, but not worth dying and people drive like maniacs on mountain roads).
So I take breaks. I might not drive the car for a month or more (except for the occasional quick drive around the block to let it run for a few minutes). The enthusiasm/passion/drive will come back! You mentioned a 3 week break because the SUV is easier to drive - I agree 100%. Go even longer. Maybe consider selling if the feeling doesn't come back in 6+ months?
