Every time I see this thread "What is the mileage of your X5?", it seems to trigger a song loop in my head:

"Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was. same as it ever was, same as it ever was" (Talking Heads "Once in a Lifetime"), repeating ad infinitum

I haven't driven it in months (Nov.6,2025), haven't worked on it in months (Feb.3,2026), haven't much thought about it, either. Health problems and expenses keep cropping up (unexpected oral surgery last week), and all my other health problems NEVER get resolved. My wife drives most of the time, and I've been using my old HHR Panel if I need to drive myself. Shit happens.

I miss my X.
