I do like having an mtb as some places I go have fire roads and my snow commuter and flat bar roadie don't cut it there. On the plus side I built legs like tree trunks and my core is stupidly strong.
Think about a cyclocross bike. Our paved roads here are awful so we do a lot of dirt road riding and we all have 'cross bikes.
