Talking Who is the tallest and who is the shortest around here?

As you know, some of us are excited about the new, upcoming E70 X5. The E53 X5 did eventually come with ride-height adjustment though X5Monkey swears that his X5 with sports package with ride-height adjustment sits lower than a non-ride height adjusted X5 even when his X5 is at the "normal" height. Lowering the X5 when it is parked makes it easier to get in and out. I believe the X5 4.8iS has this function as standard. Of course, we are excited about all the new options the E70 X5 has to offer. One question remains is that whether they will have ride-height adjustability? I suspect it will in the near future.

Question is, how many of you find it difficult to get in and out of the E53 X5 because of its natural ride height. The X3 does sit lower so the ingress/egress is easier.

So, just curious how short or tall everyone is around here?

Question is how tall you are....not your shoe size....

Anyhow, SG & I are about the same height.
