Decided I will let my beloved 4.6is go. I really don't want or need 2 SUV's. Wife needs something with 6 seat capability and she will end up driving it most days during the week during the school year. And I need capability to carry music equipment like long keyboards during the week too. Technically they do fit in the backseat of the 740i, but it's a hassle loading and unloading and hard on my back too.

So I'm planning to sell both the X5 and 740i and pick up a used Tahoe for the wife plus to double as our weekend road-trip / family car and ski-trip rig too. It will likely see some decent miles - 12K / year is my guess.

Then I will look for either a sedan w/ fold down rear seats or a wagon for my back-up DD. Primary is the 07 vette which I drive maybe 66% of the time during the week.

So as a heads up, if anyone is looking for a really clean 4.6is with all the preventative maint and repairs taken care of - mine will be up for sale soon. Estoril Blue. 122K miles currently. Looks, runs, drives like new! It's a beast and I will miss it.
