did some offroading in the X3...

So this weekend finally came and as some of you know know from my last post, the X was gonna get its dose of offroading in upstate NY. Well she did great, up in the sticks lol drove up a decently steep trail full of rocks some 8-10" high and a little muddy as well..the end while still uphill was muddy and a lot of ruts and dips which also handled very well when I first saw it I go crap...Im gonna get stuck but not at all!! did not even have to engage DTC, when I finally got to the campsite everyone else had full size dodge, ford, chevy pickups, A nissan Pathinder, Expeditions etc and when they saw the X pull up I saw a lot of head scratching, and questions like "Uhh, that thing made it up here?" "How many times did u bottom out" *I did not bottom out at all* and it was quite an impressive sight to see the BMW hangin with the big boys haha. They still couldnt believe a little Beamer made it up there, the trail was pretty rough I was afraid to drive it too many times didnt wanna ruin anything. Also going back down I tried out DAC and it worked great, put the cruise on to hold it at about 4 MPH and nice and straight and steady she goes. I have a few pics and videos I will post up in awhile. Dont be afraid to take the X's offroad! They do great just need to be gentle...
