Congrats. If you are doing 80% highway driving you must be driving into a stiff north wind if you are getting 15 MPG. You should be getting at least 20 MPG. I get like 19-20 MPG on the highway.

I do spend alot of time in bumper to bumper traffic on the "highway" so that is probably eating into the mpg...

I get 20 or so with my 50 on the highway and with a 50/50 mix its 17.
Congrats, it looks great.

If I could get 20mpg average I would be ecstatic. What speed do you drive at on the highway? I've experimented with cruising at 60, 65 and 70 and haven't noticed a big improvement at the slower speeds...

No heated steering wheel..............

Unfortunately, with the Msport package you do not get the heated steering wheel. Hard to understand given the fact that the X5M has the same steering wheel (except for the tri-color stitching) and that has the heating function.

Very nice, love the color and painted flares... I wish they made M package available for my diesel back 2 years ago!
Looks like you have bridgestones tires. Any comments on noise, handling ?
|
Tires aren't very noisy, but they are quite stiff and transfer any road imperfections into the car. Handling is excellent and impressive for such a large vehicle.
