Hi all! Take a look at my x5 in off-road. I want to point out that it managed those tough road perfectly! Just keep the speed low and have a guy pointed the road ahead of you.

Hi Terminator! Thanks for that! Don't be afraid of off-roading with your X5, in the fact, X5 is very well capable of off-roading. It can handle all most every terrain, just be careful and slow when off-roading. Only one thing is that the ride high is not enough in some extreme cases, even in off-road mode.

Nice photos! Ive not had to go through any mud in mine yet. Im curious about how it might do on the beach.

I can attest that it kicks ass in the snow and ice.




And a paper weight.
