Touche gentleman. I wasn't using the Denali as a concrete example, even though I looked @ a few of those before I chose the X. My point is that people always use the "you get what you pay for" mantra whe they talk about BMW's, but its a disheartening when I read (im a member of like 15 forums, all models) about new and close to new Bimmers being in the shop for anything from light switches to fuel pumps and being turned away from the dealerships. There is even a thread on here about BMW's and their built quality turning into a complete failure...and sadly its true. Ironically, the choice for me to get the X5 over the Denali wasn't performance, handing, etc but more that after it being the 3rd BMW in my stable is that I simply knew what I was getting myself into w/ another M62, or another BMW in general.
