Well - I did it.....

It's with a heavy heart that I have made the decision to part with my X5

The 5 year and 40,000 mile relationship had it ups and downs. When it's good - it's real good but eventually you get a little fed-up with some of the BS. It's like the hot chick you see on the street. Seems hard to believe but someone out there is tired of f-ing her.....

I finally reached that point with mine. Between my suspicion of the beginnings of a leaking kidney-pan in the bell-housing and the rusted brake-line I discovered and fixed/patched last night - I decided to call it quits. I took a trip to Carmax and made the deal.

I am sure I'll stay on the forum here for a while. I really enjoyed the X5 but the constant fear chewing away at the back of my brain of what's gonna break (that shouldn't ever break) was just too much....

Thinking about replacing it with a VW Golf R! Until then I'll just poke-around town in the CRV - it's not the coolest thing around but then again - I never have to worry about it.

Maybe I'll get back into BMW's when I can afford to buy myself a new M3
