I cant believe someone like killcrap said 3.0 gas mileage worst than the 4.4i v8 engine. It's understandable, someone here just arguing and it does not make sense.

Moh, i drive BMW 5 series back in 2000 and long before you acquired your X5. Unlike today, there were not many BMW drivers 10 years ago. Thus, X5 or BMW technology is not new to me. and it's just another fun car to drive. You said that i don't know anything about BMW/X5, take that with you

About CD changer haha I PM you and Tom, stating that i don't want it for free and you shipped it to Tom in returning for his work regarding your HID headlight. I didn't want to take anything from you since i gave you my home address and you keeping complaining your headlight and never ship it you me. So i told you that ship it to Tom since i don't need it. Tom did a goodwill to me, i never requested to have it. It's ok since it's free, but the way you promised and did different what you told me. i don't need it.
For sure, I totally understand what your saying. He was probably pulling the mpg statistics from a website like edmunds or something else. They actually do rate the 4.4 as getting better mpg than the 3.0. That is highly unlikely in the real world. Like I was saying i get around the same mpg in my 4.4 as i do in the 3.0. The 3.0 does get 1-2 mpg better in the city. They are both awesome engines and you cant go wrong with either one. However, at the end of the day the 3.0 is probably getting somewhat better mpg.
