We no longer have the same frontier/early adopter issues as we did in 2001-2003 in the regular forums, it is more about invoice price, winter tires, and a style of modifications that appeals to those who can now afford a well-used X5. That group doesn't seem to frequent the lounge as much as the original crowd.
connman, I see you had 10 posts in all of 2009, and only this one in 2010. Either a whole bunch got mass-deleted, or your migration away from this site happened quite a while ago.

^ Above in red is probably true. But IMO that would likely be a younger crowd do to the lower price of a used X5, (compaired to when they were still new) which, in my mind the youger crowd tend to be post whores.
But this is not the case as you are saying it is on the decline. I just became a member here, and I am a post whore! lol. But I find it hard to be a verbal slut..... when know one else is talking. I would love to talk about X5's all day, but I would be talking to my self. Kind of a bummer, but I guess the higher price of a X5 is keeping a large portion of ppl away... compaird to a Honda civic fourm.
Just my .02
