thats not a bad price compared to what BMW has the same truck with more miles. Funny the pick is if a white with grey interior and the info says it silver with black interior.

Responded, I've talked these guys down to 32K on the 06. I don't know if they will go lower.

^^ That's the season for SUV's, that would be crazy time to buy. You buy sport car when it's snowing, and SUV when it's hot as hell to get the best deals.

gameovr, you have to wait for the inflection point to strike. human nature is an amazing subject. a week or two before the snow hits the ground and the deals are SCREAMINGLY good.

if you wait until the week of or after snow, you lose...


as well, it is just before xmas season, so there are fewer buyers. Manheim has extensive data about used sales. If you can wait for gas prices to spike, then you are a super big winner...

the FX has too much suspension play for me. Go for the 4.8, you wont regret it.

I had a FX35 and you are right. I think the suspension was jumpy over rough terrain. Another thing i didnt like was that the brakes were not that great for such a massive and fast vehicle

I wonder if that how the 4.8is is since its a SPORT suv as well.

The X5 has an excellent braking system, its touchy at first, but you'll get used to it quickly and like the responsiveness
