Would not consider selling because the X is so comfortable on long trips.
Having done dozens of 1100 mile trips (at over 70 mph average speed, 1 stop for gas) between TX & FL, I've found the X to be the most comfortable sport oriented vehicle for the 15 hr drive. Even done a few runs with a 6k lb cargo trailer and enjoyed the trip (not chasing trailer sway).

1.4k in the last 4 years???? You are one of the few lucky owner.
This week only:
New batterie : 200$
Oil coolant seal leaking: 850$ +TX = 1K
5 Litre of oil to get back home after noticing the major oil leak: 55$
This past year:
Front struts : 1000$
Labor for struts: 450$
Actuator Gear : 150$ (did it myself)
Sensor problem somewhere: still not solved.
A few more things here and there that I forget for a grand total of :
3K this year. I have NEVER put this much money in repairs on any of my cars BMW or not.
