jgjhhi is on a distinguished road
How can you refer the X5 as a truck? I have been driving SUV's since my first child was born (24 years ago, very first SUV made, Jeep Cherokee) and have never gone back to a sedan. We have had just about every SUV made, Jepp Cherokee, Grand Wagoneer (hugh with the old Wood panels, used to call it a hotel on wheels), Toyota Landcruiser, Mitsubishi Montero, Ford Explorer and Expedition, GMC Suburban and Yukon XL, Lexus GX470 and now X5. The others were all built on truck frames and felt like trucks except for the Lexus. I tried to go back to a sedan (or even a crossover) now that we are empty nesters but just couldn't do it. I like the feel and safety of being higher up. The visibility is so much better!!! Was going to wait until the Volvo XC60 came out but became too impatient and was a little worried it would be too small. Have had my X5 for a week and absolutely love it. There is no way whatsoever that it has any truck feel in it!!! Out of all the SUV's we've had it handles the most just like a car. Your wife will love it and will find it hard to go back to anything else other than an SUV. Enjoy yours!!!!
