Omaha to DC in a day and a half for a relo. Got 30mpg, fully loaded, with the cruise set 5 over the limit. Gotta love the diesel.

Greenville SC to Coronado CA 2,291 miles. Took this trip just 2 days after buying the X it did great it was comfortable and drove wonderful, we got a little over 21mpg average for the trip (05 4.4i). We were loaded to the max though since we were moving.

Great thread,

Twice we have driven the 4.6is from Taos NM to Central Washington State (Lake Chelan), about 1450 miles door to door and then back again. I have driven this route several times so I have the route down. We do 1100 miles the first day about 16 to 17 hours then get an early start and roll into the Lake Chelan area around noon the next day. The trip back is spread out a little more evenly, drive to Salt Lake City about 800 miles the first day then an easy 650 miles the next day. I pull a very small aluminum bike trailer. I set the trip mileage and both times averaged just under 19 mpg round trip.

The X5 is an awesome cruiser. A 12 hour day behind the wheel is like a walk in the park.

The X is our long distance ride, period. Comfortable, safe, burns up a boatload of road, and has a spare! GA to AZ. GA to PA. GA to NY. Many times and more trips ahead.

JDM-20L is on a distinguished road
2000km's towing a tandem axle car carrier weighing 2000~ kg(4,400 lb's) on the return journey. Even went through some floods

It loves it and hauls like a freight train.

I don't want to put my family in anything else.
