So long, X35D...

After tallying up how much the services to date would have cost me (F+R brakes and rotors, EGR cooler, pass. seat airbag sensor, IAT sensor, and other stuff I can't even remember over the past two years), I decided to part ways with my 2010 X5 while the miles were still low.

Next up: a Nissan Murano SL AWD. I'll miss the massive torque, I won't miss paying higher-than-premium for diesel. The Murano is very nicely appointed - power everything, including the lift gate and the fold-down rear seats, keyless entry and ignition, etc.

Enjoy your X5's - I will miss mine, even though I think selling mine and moving on was the right choice for me.
