Looks great as always!

I notice shopping cart racks in the background. I assume you were uphill and not as close as it appears?

Yeah, was uphill and over 50' away from the nearest rack. Had 2 couples walk over and ask if I was taking pic because it was for sale (both were interested if it was), told them they were spring clean shots, both couples were floored when I told them it's 11 yrs old and over 180k miles. One guy gave me his card and asked that I call him if I decide to sell.

I love when that happens....especially Watching peoples reaction when you tell them these things are 10+ years old and they sit there with that bewildered look trying to discern if you're kidding to or not!

The guy who gave me his card responded "when was it resprayed?", I said only the rear bumper was refinished in '08 due to minor parking lot bump while with PO. He asked "when was it wetsanded?", responded never.

Some people can't understand OE paint can last for over a decade when cared for.

80 bucks shipped. Thanks eBay!


Waiting for magnetic drain plugs to do all the fluids.

Ordered the drain plugs from here:
MAGNETIC DRAIN PLUGS

Fluids are here. Hard to believe a full lubricant change is over 300 bucks.

Love dimple plugs, I have one on my 2011 Triumph, next oil change the X5 is getting one as well as my wifes Rav4 as well, they are great!

Today I came home and my car alarm was going off in the driveway next door (we parked at our neighbors since our driveway was curing from being re-sealed on Tues). Unplugged the hood sensor, I think those shenanigans should be done with.

Looking through old pics from ages ago found this.

To the left is an X5.

Yup, I always install them in my cars.

Sorry about your alarm.

Ran over a bolt in the garage at work today
Does Big O have nitrogen to refill after the fix?
