I just posted the 4.6iS for sale HERE

She may turn it in this week when she picks up her new X5 M but will probably hang onto it for a spare vehicle through the holidays.

I just out camping and riding quads over the Thanksgiving weekend at some sand dunes in California, and one of the guys said that I needed to get rid of my X5 to get a pickup truck so I could haul a trailer. I said that the X5 is a pretty capable hauler even compared to a lot of pickups, so this picture definitely made me smile a bit!

BTW I learned that the back hatch folded down makes a perfect height table for a grill!

Titz pic, couple of very good looking cars! BMW could use that idea as a feature of the X's towing capabilities.

The X5 is a tractor!

Mine has been master of this 5987# load for 2 1/2 years now without a "hitch", so to speak.

Maneuvers great, pulls steady, up and out of the steep slimy boat ramps while the big Dodge Rams and F250s attached to a similar load are spinning their wheels.

When I need to stop quick, the X5 is in charge! Of course the distances are much greater with See Truth attached, but the bimmer stops her much better than my Suburban did.

A classy tractor, don't you think? - M54 Lover

X5 towing an X5... I guess when one radiator blows, you will always have a back up car!

Great pics!

I wonder if the picture of a 4.8is hooked onto a small jet is still floating around.
