The question is of little intrest, he's dead did you have to think about it?

Why question about SUV roll and the X5 is more on point.

We all think the X5 drives great but how prone is it to roll over.

I think changes where made to newer x5 to make them more stable but roll over is a real concern.

It that some of think that the X5 is cool and thats all that matter?

If you thought the question was a joke and of little interest ,you shouldnt have got into the thread at all!
This isnt a thread about SUVs rolling or how prone the X5 is to roll over.

Its more likely that that guy survived than you getting a answer from anybody on the X5 rolling!

You did not make the thread, the video was intresting and clearly showed the SUV rolling. The basic question is not the point (almost everyone thinks he is dead). My question was not meant to highjack the thread but keep it a live. In addtion you did not creat the thread so bug off!

I am really enjoying this!I hate the rude and personal stuff but this is funny!
I have an X5 "oil burner" which I love ,but I also have two M3s(an E30 and an E46)as well a an F355GTS.Btw,they are all modded and bigger wheels!

Alright,I will answer your question on "x5 rolling"!I do take my bends really fast on the oil burner!However,my engine is heavily modified and it produces more torque than yours!
I have Eibach springs,20" wheels with low profile tyres and to answer you question ,it doesnt roll,in fact fiy there is an Eibach X5 "oil burner" test vehicle with less power than mine(245hp) that with mods handles better than an E46-M3!Fact!

This is why people mod their cars!You should try it!Maybe then yoú would stop asking questions if the X5 rolls!

That's a sad video. This is one of those times I hope they weren't showing it on live TV. If they were, hopefully it was on a delay with someone's hand on the big red button.
