I LOVE my 2011 35d....

18" of snow here in MN since yesterday

I'm soooooooooo glad I traded-out my 19" all seasons for my oem 18" winter tire application...

We had to travel 60+ miles smack in the middle of this storm and my x5 diesel tracked like an M1 Abrams tank!!

Heated seats, heated steering wheel, great visibility, control and stability....

I LOVE this vehicle....

Now I can't wait for Spring and putting on some style 214's !!

I love my 2011 X5 in the snow (as well as all kinds of weather). This vehicle is just awesome.

Ditto here... Just came back from a round trip from northern NJ to Washington DC, 500 miles, 1 tank (23mpg average which included LOTS of idling, traffic and local driving in the city)... I am SOOOOOOOOOOOO in trouble with miles on my lease... I might end up running out of warranty before lease is over!

LMAO! We got a tone down here in the south metro. On a side note, I'm getting closer to the trade amount I need on the truck and then next comes the pricing discussion.

Though was delt a blow today. Jeep dealer just called and offered $500 under invoice for a fully loaded price of $43,067. I was hoping they would be difficult to work with and thus push me more towards the BMW. Guess that didn't happen...

1. When offered 'under invoice', you then KNOW that the "invoice" is not "cost"...there has to be a mfg to dealer incentive going on...make sure you do your homework.

2. Only problem with buying a jeep is that you'll be driving a jeep.

Yes you sure did...18"-19"??

Up here in the NW burbs I think it was closer to 10"..I had to drive the wife down to Mpls right in the middle of that mess...

Glad to hear you're making progress...Were you able to confirm the impending end (or not) of the eco-credit?

Well the news said around 18", but there was at least 24" in the driveway. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get any more info on the eco credit. I'll be speaking with the used car mgr on thursday to evaluate the truck for a trade. If that number doesn't meet my min, then the eco credit won't matter much at that point.
