Then, I had to make an errand run down to Orange County to pick up some glasses down @ South Coast Plaza and passed SuperGreg's neighborhood (about 75 miles) Then went to Irvine to pick up some sushi and brought it home for my wife to enjoy!! (About another 80 miles)

Despite all that driving today, I was quite comfortable in the X5. The X5 is a great fun car/SAV to drive for long distances!!

80 miles to get sushi??? WTF? Don't you guys have a local sushi joint??

In L.A there are many chain "restaurants" which generally, imho, blow, so when you find a good non-chain restaurant you tend to make every effort to keep going there.

I hear you guys loud and clear. I drove over 1000 miles to WFIV and back this weekend, and fell in love with my X all over again. It's my wife's daily driver, so I don't get to enjoy it nearly as much as I can. But it's an awesome car. I have to along ways to catch up to KewlX5's though and BTW, your car looks great with 142,000 miles on it

Same situation as me. The M is my daily driver but I try to steal the X whenever I can!
