So I took my first road trip with the X5. I went 3.5 hours to meet some friends for camping in PA. It's an event called leaves and liquor and we always go to a state park this time of year and have a blast. I don't like camping so much, so I decided to sleep in the X5. I'm 5'10 and fit just perfectly in the back. It got down into the 20s on the first night so I appreciate the insulation of my iron tent. Much more room than my A3.

The X performed pretty well, I really like how it corners on the twisty back roads for how big it is except for super tight turns.

I did notice that it stuttered a little under high load situations so I'm going to put in new plugs and a container of chevron techron and see where things go from there.

I average about 21mpg for this trip.
