X5 BMW Service Recommendation Changes?

[MRV99]

This is a pretty simple topic.

1) Master BMW mechanics which do tech talks in major BMW publications state all fluid intervals are way to long based on the way Americans commute and push their engines/components. Sludge will build up based on typical low rpm and high moisture buildup, stop and go, abusive driving on parts which are build just enough to satisfy the accounts. Let just see how many modern cars are praised like there old school counterparts are now.

2) If you purchase a BMW because of the Zero maintenance policy then you drank the coolaid and my not be able to afford the car.... people now a days don't feel that they pay for anything... everything should be free. No need to keep anything because the next best thing will come out and I will buy that. Why would you need to maintain anything when you are going to throw it away in x years. Nobody keeps anything like they used to unless they think it is going to make them money. Most people cannot afford the standards at which people live now.... Imagine spending 50-75k on a 5 year loan and actually pay 1k a year just to maintain the car... BMW would never sell the cars they do today.

3) The faster that you burn your car up the quicker you purchase a new car. Stock holders no longer care about anything except "Growth". there is no long term only short term. How can I profit now. How do you obtain growth..... new markets or sell more product to existing customers at shorter intervals. A personal quote from a CEO of a company which manufactured home appliances ...... His brother makes cheese: "Why build something which can last 20 years when you can build something that will last half as much and pay the same price"... you just doubled your sales in the same time frame.... not to mention if it fails quicker.
3) Does anybody own insurance? Insurance is for suckers unless you have to use it. BMW can view long maintenance intervals the same way. The longest interval on warranty is 100k. Mathematics dictates this...

never mind... I can rant on forever but I am going to bed.
