This weekend, decided to go visit some family up in the Tahoe/Reno area. Made it through I-80 through Truckee, CA even though it started to snow and it got down to 30F at Donner Pass and downright slippery.
However, last night, it started to snow in some parts of Reno (Mark G can verify this) and we were making a Blockbuster run when some idiot in a Ford pickup truck was flying down Mt. Rose highway and lost control and hit the left rear quarter are of the X5 thus causing me to spin to the other side of the highway and we ended getting t-boned by a Chevy Suburban. Needless to say, the X5 did protect us and the head/side airbags went off and we walked out in one piece. However, after it's 5 year anniversary this last month and 135,768 miles, I think our X5 did it last great thing and saved our lives.
RIP our beloved X5
