Left the herd

Folks,

I'm done. I've come to the conclusion after 3 BMWs, and over 4 years of ownership, that these cars are absolutely pieces of crap.

I've never had so many issues. New, used, CPO, all records, no records, dealer service, indy serviced. They simply break way too much.

When they're right they drive well, problem is, they're rarely right.

So I leave you with these nightmares. I've had some good times, but I"m tired of always thinking "what's next", and doing without the car. It's time to put my money in my play toys, and not my daily driver.

I bought a 2008 Volvo XC70 to replace the X5, and a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel to tow with. The Volvo is cushy and has lots of room and AWD. The Ram is a beast of a truck, and even with 241k miles on the clock, everything functions normally. Try that in a BMW.

It's been real.
