The 2.8 is a 4 banger and beside less power, also noisy. Both have WP woes.
Maybe the 2.8 WP "might" last a few miles longer.
3.5 all the way.

The better half has asked me to look at F25 X3s for her. What is the "WP" woes you describe? A search for the WP acronym kicked up nothing. Like you, I lean toward the 3.0L six, particularly with the larger size of the F25, close to the size of my 2006 X5. Also, anyone have the towing capacity available, offhand, and source for a tow hitch? I remember my long search in 2013-14 for an OEM E53 hitch ....
