Cool Goodbye to my X

It was time...with the second baby on the way, the X was way too firm and getting old, so we got new Acura MDX. I hope my X finds a new home and maybe the new owner will appear here one day. Anyone interested in sprint booster ... PM me.
I hope one day I will return to the BMW family

You are welcome. You will enjoy it for sure. I think I will miss this forum. The guys at the MDX forum don't seem as cool as everybody here....

Theres an MDX forum?

I can see the threads now....

"How do I get the kids to fall asleep without rear seat DVD players?"

"Check out the wife's haul from Bed Bath and Beyond today"

"Does turning off my DRL void my warranty?"

"Best way to remove mud (soccer cleats) from carpet?"


Just messing Rado I'm sure its a sweet ride and you're enjoying it!

hahahaah....see thats what i'm talking about...nothing exciting at the mdx forum.
but to be honest it was between a new model X5 with 3rd row seat(that was a must), audi q7 or acura mdx....we test drove and discussed all and the x5 was still too firm for us, the q7 was too big and gas hungry crazy but really nice, but no warranty, and if I wanted an mdx it has to be the advance package with all the gadgets and toys, so that made our decision.
I think I will never lose my love for BMW cars and I will definitely go back to it when the time comes to trade our 2nd car(which is honda accord) in the next 2-3 years...but this time i'm thinking more about newer 535xi or so.

There's even a poster on a MDX forum that refer to his MDX as a "X".

Timing belt job on 2007 X. - Acura MDX Forum : Acura MDX SUV Forums

As Barney Fife would say we got to nip this in the bud.

I saw first hand what happens when a group steals the name from another group. As a License Architect I spent 5 years in college, 3 years in an intern program and was required to pass a 5 days state board exams before I could call myself an Architect. But the IT people stole the term Architect and now call themselves System Architect. Do a job seasrch for Architect and it's mainly IT positions.

Nip it, nip it in the bud......
