I got hit by a drunk driver 4 years ago, so I can relate. Thank God (and BMW) for your safety.

Be prepared for some soreness over next few days.

A little late to respond -- sorry. I'm SO sorry to hear about the accident and the apparent total loss of your vehicle. As most have already saiid, though, as much as we love our Xs, it IS a vehicle that can be replaced (with another X5, of course ). Your and your son's health is a LOT more important. Glad to see you two walked away safely.

I just saw the pics on the other thread.... sad to see the car in that condition, but happy to see that it protected and your little one.

Juan

There will be another X5 in the near future...This car saved me and my son from serious injury...PICS of the car to come soon!!!

You just answered another thread on why we buy X5's - Glad you are all safe - You can't put a $ value on safety - I've never driven any other vehicle that feels as solid & safe as the X5 - I'm sorry you ended up finding that out the hard way - Again, glad you are okay.

Sorry to hear about your loss... But as everyone has put it, its just another thing that could be replaced... The most important thing is that you and your son are OK!!!

It hasn't been a bad day...... because your sense of value in purchasing a quality vehicle like an X5 has protected your most precious thing, the life of your son.

Very glad to hear you are both ok..... X5 can be replaced, you both cannot.

Sorry about the loss, but as we all have said, the X did exactly what it was supposed to do. Glad you and your son are OK.
Now, when is the 4.8is getting delivered?
