The word "official" in forums like these, generally conveys that it's the forum's official thread where the subject should be discussed and confined to, which then allows a large database of information to build up over time.

That was the intent. To be clear, I do not claim to have ownership over this thread. For the record, I'm going to take my name off of the subject line, to resolve the issue, however.

Why you yelling bro?

So, let's make a few things clear:

1. Yes, your thread's title was changed because, well... it's not "official."

2. Yes, you're trying to offer a solution to a problem that does not exist. (This is indeed a fact.) We appreciate, encourage, and support debate; unfounded diatribes, however, will always receive responses like you've seen in this thread. We do not even object to your rant nearly as much as we do to your overly-defensive reaction of others' disagreement or opinions. Let's face it, this is YOUR opinion; it's not backed by facts.

3. This thread is not what I would call "relevant issue," unless this were a Toyota forum. (And, yes, I'm a mod. And I'm meddling.)

4. No need to yell. No need to get so defensive. As Thunder mentioned, if you cannot handle others' rebuttals, maybe the internet is not for you.

5. We do not censor, unless personal attacks are involved (or when other obvious lines are crossed -- pornography, for example). We do ask, however, that we maintain a civil posture -- something that is quickly fading in this thread.

OK...ok...back to the main topic here. What if there were a bomb on board and you couldn't drop below 50mph or it will explode?

Pray that the bomb was built by Toyota and is defective?

Given a fault that is apparent in mine and other X5's at the moment you would do well to be prepared for this ... it won't happen overnight but it will happen !
