Good Deal or Not?

Pierce, so really no measurable difference in roominess? Damn, it was looking a little bigger in the dealer photos.

If you aren't using the 3rd row very often, then just get the X5.
If it will get used all the time AND you need to carry more than a couple of bags at the same time, should look at the Lexus or a Landcruiser. Better than any domestics.

That's the thing, it is deceiving since the GL looks a lot longer than the X...IMO they are the same inside...the GL is long and narrow...take one for a drive and make comparisons...

I agree on both points...

All righty then, thanks for the input, everyone!

Just out of curiosity, what are the finance rates down south? Right now, on a pre-owned vehicle, market value is 4.9% up here...

I don't really know, I was trying to figure out what I was really shopping for and what I should expect to pay before I was considering applying for a used car loan.
