What did I do for my E53 today?

I sold it. 2005 E53 X5 3.0 w/173k miles, spent its life in Northeast US... $4,000
I ownd it for 7 yrs and 50,000+ miles.

Needed to reduce the fleet of 4, M54-powered BMWs..The E53 was a quick sale. Sold in one day on facebook to the first person who came to look at it.

I'll miss how it looked, the ride height, the functional inside space, the roof bars and how it towed with the factory hitch and tow module.

I won't miss much else. I probably wouldn't buy another one unless it came from a rust-free state. I may buy a 2017/18 Mercedes GLE 350 4 matic w/ tow package later this year.

Will continue to participate here. Onward and upward!
