YES! There it is! What a dumba$$... Not only is it NOT an X5, he wants it to be an X5i.... And to top it off he has a BMW license plate frame, but it's not even a genuine BMW one... It's a knockoff! It's a good thing his plate is blurred out, because someone would (should, maybe?) go smack him upside the head.

I figured out why he had to go for "X5i" instead of also adding a 3.0i badge somewhere. See that particular Ford Escape is the smaller-engine version. It has a 2.3L I-4 making 153 horses. Since there is no 2.3i badge that he could make out of the existing badges, he had to settle for X5i instead.

I can not believe I just saw that...Maybe Ill take off my X5 badge and put XC90 on there..I just had an argument with a guy who insisted these made X's look like pieces of s*&@...He said they are more durable, faster, and better looking...I couldnt believe what I was hearing...

Then I let him sit in mine, and he said, Wow, this IS pretty nice...I told the main difference was the XC90's cockpit was made out of play-doh....

I have test driven the XC90 T6 AWD. It's one of the numbest cars I've been in. There is absolutely NO steering response, the suspension bounces like those in a New York taxi. And the interior is god-awful, especially with that plastic "aluminum-like" trim they put.

And the transmission kicks when downshifting, even from 3rd to 2nd.

Don't even get me started on the "organic-shaped" head and tail lights.

I actually like the XC90... My friend's got one in Crystal Green and it's pretty nice. It's no X5, but I like it.
