Do you mean terrific in negative or funny?
How do you feel the x in the mud? The electronic is working well?

Wink Mine Too had some get fun in the mud

If you read the hand book (I us men do all the time) it says to switch off the DSC for off roading, Heres some of my pictures too after the event, The dealer commented on how muddy the underneath was when it went in for a service.

20" street tires aren't exactly made for off-roading but looks like you had some fun anyway...

Looks like a blast, but I could never subject my X to that much dirt, mud, and rocks being flung all over the undercarriage and all over the paint. I used to do that kind of stuff in my old beat up Chevy Blazer though and it was certainly a great time!!!

Hi! X5-Xpower, the pictures are so nice. By the way, I am from HK too and I always drive my x5 for offroading. If you search in the forum, you can find lots of pictures of mine in offroading with my x5. Where did you drive your x5 in the pictures? Hong Kong or mainland China? Here is some of my pictures, wish you like them:
