Of course, I can only afford one wife. Good thing she is understanding about cars.

i have to wonder what other 6500 lb vehicle out there is this much fun to drive. i picked up the X5 under the guise of section 179 and i have to admit i am amazed. even with the e36 track rat and the wife's e46 in the driveway i never expected the X5 to be quite what i have come to understand. it is the finest vehicle i have ever driven. certainly the most refined. only a couple of things i care about in a vehicle, and if it only gets 16 mpg, then you know what, i will learn to live with that.
as with fine wines and fine women, engaging interaction makes the experience all the more enjoyable.
