I will tow a 2000 kg boat-trailer combination. My e53 handled this load pretty good, so I foresee no issues at all. Pics next week when I have to go to the technical inspection with the trailer

Not yet, but hopefully soon...

Got the notice that our ordered 4.8i arrived at the dealer yesterday, ONE MONTH EARLY.

We're waiting until April to pick it up, and then I'll hook up the Trailex with my E36 M3 track car and take a pic.

So, buschy, did you see the several pix on page 2 of this thread: http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/...=trailer+hitch

Specifically: http://www.xoutpost.com/425853-post12.html and http://www.xoutpost.com/426098-post15.html

how do people get away with towing that much weight on a vehicle rated to only 2700kg? maybe I'll be able to tow my big fat nissan patrol with my X5 when I get it after all!
